"Tencent has agreed to stop promoting and publicly testing Light of Motiram as a lawsuit with Sony works its way through the courts, according to a report by TheGamePost. This is Tencent's game that looks suspiciously similar to Sony's Horizon franchise, so much so that Sony sued the publisher. Sony wants the court to block the game from sale entirely, but as the case continues Tencent has agreed to keep Light of Motiram out of the spotlight."
"The company submitted a court filing that says there will be "no new promotion of public testing" of the game as Sony's injunction request is argued. In return, Sony will give Tencent more time to respond to the injunction. Tencent has also issued a request to dismiss the lawsuit entirely. Both companies have jointly requested that the injunction request and the motion to dismiss be moved to the same day, which could be as early as January."
Tencent agreed to stop promoting and publicly testing Light of Motiram while a legal dispute with Sony proceeds through the courts. Sony alleges the game bears strong similarities to the Horizon franchise and seeks an injunction to block its sale. Tencent filed a court notice promising "no new promotion of public testing" during injunction arguments, and Sony granted additional time for Tencent to respond. Tencent also filed to dismiss the lawsuit. Both companies requested that the injunction hearing and the dismissal motion be scheduled on the same day, possibly in January. Light of Motiram shows visual and setup parallels to Horizon but emphasizes cooperative survival gameplay rather than third-person adventure.
