In a significant legal move, Sony has filed a lawsuit against Tencent, alleging that its upcoming game, Light of Motiram, is a “slavish clone” of Sony’s acclaimed Horizon series. This lawsuit not only raises questions about intellectual property rights in the gaming industry but also highlights the thin line between inspiration and imitation in game development. Sony’s claims suggest that the similarities between the two games are so pronounced that players might confuse them as part of the same franchise.
