Light Of Motiram Announced By Tencent, And It’s An Obvious Knockoff Of Sony’s Horizon Zero Dawn

Light of Motiram is a new open-world craft game from Tencent Games subsidiary Polaris Quest, and while it’s only coming to PC at present, a quick look at the first screenshots reveal that this couldn’t be more similar to Horizon Zero Dawn if it tried.

Much like Guerrilla Games’ critically acclaimed adventure title, Light of Motiram features a world overrun by mechanised beasts while the remnants of humanity struggle to survive in a hostile environment. Players will face off against hulking bosses — again, just like Horizon Zero Dawn — while exploring a wide range of locations, from lush forests to snowcapped mountains.

In a world overrun by colossal machines, explore the vast open world, build your base of operations, advance technology, train Mechanimals, and take on formidable bosses. Starting from the primitive age, forge a new path of development. Defy the machination, survive with mechanimals.

If that didn’t seem Horizon-y enough for you, the main protagonist, like Aloy, is female and has red hair. Other features of the game include the ability to train and customise over 100 Mechanimals, which can offer support in combat or a boost in production.

Light of Motiram is scheduled for release on PC but a release date has yet to be announced. We have a feeling this isn’t going to be a smooth ride for Tencent given its obvious similarities to Horizon Zero Dawn.
