Tencent's game Light of Motiram appears to mimic Horizon Zero Dawn, featuring robot dinosaurs and similar graphics.

: Tencent's Polaris Quest revealed Light of Motiram, a game closely resembling Horizon Zero Dawn with robot dinosaurs and similar art style. It features a post-apocalyptic setting where humans fight with bows and spears, echoing Horizon's mechanics. While including differences like shelter construction and 10-player co-op, it risks legal issues with its similarities. Light of Motiram is planned for Steam and Epic Games with no release window yet.

Tencent subsidiary Polaris Quest unveiled their game Light of Motiram, which bears a striking resemblance to Horizon Zero Dawn. The game features a post-apocalyptic world where humans wearing primitive-style clothing battle giant dinosaur-like robots.

The visuals mimic Horizon's art style, and the gameplay involves crafting and combat with bows and spears, paralleling the mechanics in Horizon. However, Light of Motiram introduces players to some new elements, such as shelter building and up to 10-player co-op.

Despite these differences, the game may face legal challenges due to its close imitation of Horizon. Currently, it is designated for release on Steam and the Epic Games Store, though no release date has been announced yet.
