However, the emergence of imitators is already being felt, with one of the most notable being Light of Motiram, developed by the Chinese studio Polaris Quest, a subsidiary of Tencent. This new title, which has caused a stir due to its obvious inspiration from Horizon Zero Dawn, has released a trailer showcasing its own features and distancing itself from its source of inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Its appeal is being the opposite of the Horizon saga in everything but aesthetics<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Light of Motiram presents itself as a survival adventure focused on base building, the taming of mechanical creatures known as Mechanimals, and cooperative combat for up to ten players. <strong>Unlike what is seen in the Guerrilla Games title, this new game minimizes the narrative weight and seeks to maximize the online component<\/strong>. Players will be able to join and leave matches without affecting their progress, a proposal that could be appealing to those looking for a more flexible experience.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Light of Motiram - Official Reveal Trailer\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/v0Of5Xjdwbc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for combat, Light of Motiram moves even further away from the Horizon style, opting for a focus on melee combat that emphasizes dodges, blocks, and counterattacks.<strong> The customization of mechs will allow players to take on different roles, from tanks to support units, adding variety to the gameplay system<\/strong>. This approach could attract a new audience eager to experience a different game, even if it shares certain similarities in its setting.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scheduled for a 2025 release as a free-to-play title, Light of Motiram will be available on PS5, iOS, Android, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store<\/strong>. As development progresses, Tencent&#8217;s growing role in the video game industry, including its investments in Ubisoft and oversight of franchises like Assassin&#8217;s Creed, continues to spark conversation about its presence in the global market.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Steam\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/3047d89c-96d0-11e6-8546-00163ed833e7\/2505233623\/steam-download.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Steam<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/steam.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/steam.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Horizon saga from PlayStation, which has brought four games to life so far, seems to be on track to continue its expansion.
