Sony filed a lawsuit against Tencent over Light of Motiram, the latter's upcoming game, which Sony alleges is a “shameless” copy of the Horizon titles. After first removing any potentially infringing content from stores, Tencent is now fighting back, accusing Sony of monopolizing common genre conventions.
As per Insider Gaming (via The Game Post), Tencent is requesting Sony's lawsuit to be dismissed on the grounds of its “infringing” content being common genre conventions, which Sony is trying to monopolize and “fence off.”
