Sony Interactive Entertainment and Tencent put an end to one of the most talked-about legal disputes in the video game industry.

Both companies reached a confidential agreement over Light of Motiram, the title accused of being a clone of Horizon, and the lawsuit was withdrawn.

A confidential agreement that closed the conflict

According to a court document filed this week, the case was dismissed with prejudice, which prevents it from being reopened in the future.

The information was released by specialized media and confirms that the legal battle ended much earlier than expected.

Sony's complaint against Tencent

The lawsuit had been filed by Sony in July, when it accused Tencent of "servilely" copying key elements of the Horizon saga.

The claim included audiovisual similarities, character design, and a protagonist who, according to Sony, directly recalled Aloy.

What the original complaint said

In the court filing, Sony maintained that the game infringed copyright and trademark rights. The Japanese company warned that this alleged copy could cause irreparable harm to one of its most important franchises.

Light of Motiram disappears from stores

Shortly after the agreement became known, Light of Motiram was removed from Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Users detected the change through SteamDB, where the game is listed as unavailable.

Official silence and a conciliatory message

From Tencent, spokesperson Sean Durkin stated that both companies are satisfied with the resolution.

Although there was no official confirmation, everything indicates that Light of Motiram was canceled after the agreement.
