We noted, when Light of Motiram was first unveiled in late 2024, that it looked a lot like Horizon: Zero Dawn—to the point that we also wondered whether it might earn the ire of Sony. It took the better part of a year, but sure enough, Sony eventually filed a lawsuit against Tencent, parent of Motiram studio Polaris Quest, calling the game a "slavish clone" of the hit Horizon games.
Tencent is a powerhouse and I'm sure it has at least a few lawyers on speed dial, but it's starting to look like it don't want Sony's smoke. As noticed by The Game Post, the Light of Motiram page on Steam has been dramatically updated over the past several days with new text and screenshots that make it look a whole lot less Horizon-like.
