Sony's PlayStation is suing China-based video game giant Tencent over copyright and trademark infringement regarding the former's "Horizon" franchise.

In the lawsuit, Sony calls Tencent's Light of Motiram a "slavish clone" of the Horizon series that copies its entire aesthetic, story, themes, and gameplay in a way that could confuse consumers. Sony is asking for an unspecified amount of monetary damages and an order that prevents Tencent from infringing on its IP rights.

PlayStation claims the China-based developer's upcoming game "Light of Motiram" is a "slavish clone" of its "Horizon" series.
