> Sony said in its complaint that it declined an offer from Tencent to collaborate on a new "Horizon" game last year.

Wow.

Didn't realize it was such a blatant ripoff until today when I looked at the trailer. The world, outfits, machines, the heroine and even the friggin' music: https://youtu.be/vi-jR03vkPY

I have always found the Horizon artstyle to be pretty generic and uninspired. It will be interesting to see if they can actually make a case out of this, especially with other studios having made games like ReCore that technically released before the first Horizon game.

I disagree but I wonder if you would come to the same conclusion seeing Horizon gameplay/trailer and then seeing this ripoff's trailer?
