Sony demanda a Tencent por Light of Motiram, juego que copia a Horizon Zero Dawn según la denuncia  Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo  Sony acaba de presentar una demanda en una corte de California contra Tencent, una de las compañías tecnológicas más grandes del mundo, por supuestamente copiar su popular franquicia de videojuegos Horizon. El juego acusado, Light of Motiram, aún no ha sido lanzado, pero ya está generando controversia. Sony dice que ese título es una copia tan directa de Horizon Zero Dawn que hasta el personaje protagonista, el estilo visual y los animales robóticos del mundo postapocalíptico se parecen demasiado. La empresa japonesa está pidiendo que el juego no llegue al mercado y que Tencent entregue todo el material promocional para destruirlo.  ¿Pero hasta qué punto se puede parecer un videojuego?  En 2017, Sony lanzó Horizon Zero Dawn para la consola PlayStation 4. El juego fue un éxito. Tenía una protagonista muy particular llamada Aloy, una joven pelirroja que sobrevive en un mundo futuro dominado por máquinas gigantes con forma de animales. El universo del juego mezcla tecnología con tribus humanas que viven como en la prehistoria. Su historia, sus escenarios, su estética y hasta su música marcaron tanto al público que rápidamente se convirtió en una franquicia valiosa para Sony, con secuelas, merchandising y hasta planes para una serie de televisión.Ahora, Sony alega que Tencent —un gigante de la tecnología con sede en China y dueño de varias empresas de videojuegos— desarrolló en secreto un nuevo juego llamado Light of Motiram con una historia, estilo gráfico y personajes que se parecen demasiado a los de Horizon.Sony no está reaccionando por simple capricho. Según la demanda, en 2024 Tencent propuso colaborar oficialmente con Sony para hacer una versión móvil de Horizon, con una estética asiática y elementos como mascotas, juego multijugador y construcción de refugios. Sony rechazó la propuesta. Pero un tiempo después, Tencent presentó Light of Motiram, donde aparece una mujer protagonista con rasgos parecidos a Aloy, luchando en un entorno lleno de máquinas gigantes, desiertos, montañas nevadas y tecnología tribal.Además, en las imágenes promocionales del nuevo juego aparecen animales metálicos casi idénticos a los de Horizon, estructuras arquitectónicas con la misma paleta de colores, y hasta una interfaz parecida. Sony dice que esta copia no solo es visual, sino que afecta directamente su reputación y sus ingresos. También argumenta que el público puede confundirse y pensar que Light of Motiram es una secuela de Horizon, lo que podría dañar su marca.Sony ha llevado el caso a una corte federal en el norte de California. Pide que Tencent cancele el lanzamiento del juego, elimine todo el material promocional y pague hasta 150 mil dólares por cada parte de la franquicia de Horizon que se haya copiado. Además, acusa a Tencent de haber actuado con conocimiento previo y de forma deliberada, luego de haberle propuesto inicialmente colaborar de forma legal.Por su parte, Tencent aún no ha respondido oficialmente a las acusaciones. El juego Light of Motiram sigue listado en plataformas como Steam y Epic Games Store, aunque no tiene fecha oficial de lanzamiento.En la demanda también se citan comentarios de redes sociales y sitios especializados en videojuegos que opinan que la copia es evidente. Hay quienes han llamado a Motiram “Horizon Zero Originalidad” en tono sarcástico.El conflicto entre Sony y Tencent abre una puerta a una discusión más amplia sobre qué se considera plagio en los videojuegos. ¿Es posible que dos juegos tengan mundos postapocalípticos, tribus humanas y robots sin ser copias? ¿Hasta qué punto se permite la inspiración antes de considerarse infracción?Esta no es la primera vez que ocurre algo parecido. Juegos como Genshin Impact fueron criticados por parecerse a Zelda: Breath of the Wild, aunque nunca fueron demandados. Y muchas veces, las mecánicas como “crafteo” (crear objetos con materiales) o “gliders” (alas para planear por el aire) se repiten en muchos títulos porque se vuelven estándar.Pero cuando además del estilo de juego se repiten nombres, personajes, escenarios, colores, logos, tipografías y hasta los mismos ángulos de cámara en los tráilers, la discusión cambia. Por eso Sony quiere llevar el caso hasta el final y dejar un precedente para proteger su propiedad intelectual.  Sony demandó a Tencent por copiar el universo y estilo de su franquicia Horizon en el juego Light of Motiram. ¿Es plagio o inspiración?Cuéntame qué opinas y sigue escuchando más historias como esta en el pódcast Flash Diario en Spotify:

In a week full of news, there are standouts from each of the big three. A job listing includes Sony, multiplatform, and both Xbox and Nintendo? What's this all about, and does it really mean Sony is going to join Microsoft in bringing more of its games to more places? Or is this really just an extension of the live service initiative? Sean and Marc discuss the possibilities and do PlayStation fans need to get ready for the console wars to truly be meaningless? On the Xbox side of things, a major about-face comes as a surprise as the push towards $80 games is no more, at least for the time being, with the announcement that Outerworlds 2, Ninja Gaiden 4, and the rest of Xbox's holiday slate will go back to being $70. Will this spur a big batch of preorders for these games? Or should Microsoft have stuck to the original plan? Nintendo also got a major sales data boon as the Nintendo Switch 2 sold 1.6 million in the United States alone. Mario Kart World also performed super well, and even third-party titles like Deltarune, Cyberpunk 2077, and Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma had standout numbers. Not to mention, the Pokémon Presents had some interesting reveals for what's out now and what's to come in the future. Plus, Sean has spent even more time with Donkey Kong Bananza, Sony sues Tencent over copying the Horizon series, the Elden Ring franchise just keeps making bank, Final Fantasy Tactics is actually a remake for an interesting reason, a Star Wars Outlaws sequel got canceled, and much more!

In today's Daily Fix:Sony is suing Tencent over the game Light of Motiram, which Sony claims is a rip-off of their Horizon franchise. Judging by the trailers only, it's not hard to see why Sony is taking Tencent to court—the two games feature a red-haired female protagonist in similar outfits, a post-apocalyptic world inhabited by robot animals, and even similar font and key art. In other Sony news, August's PS Plus games have been revealed, with Lies of P headlining the offerings. And finally, Mario Paint is back on a Nintendo console. Nintendo dropped the game on the Nintendo Switch Online service, and yes the Switch 2 version takes advantage of the new Joy-con's mouse controls. Switch 1 owners can still play, provided they plug in a compatible USB mouse.

Nvidia heeft zeker 300 duizend H20-chips bij TSMC besteld, melden ingewijden aan persbureau Reuters. De bestelling komt nadat de Verenigde Staten de exportrestricties op de chip naar China versoepeld hebben. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Nvidia zou volgens één ingewijde al 600 tot 700 duizend H20-chips op voorraad hebben. De bestelling bij TSMC zou de voorraad dus met de helft vermeerderen. Nvidia-baas Jensen Huang zei eerder deze maand nog dat de productie-aantallen bepaald zouden worden door de hoeveelheid orders uit China. De bestelling bij TSMC lijkt er dus op te wijzen dat het om veel orders gaat. Op dit moment is Nvidia nog in afwachting van een licentie van het Amerikaanse ministerie van Handel om de H20-chip naar China te mogen exporteren. Volgens Nvidia komt die 'binnenkort', maar op het ministerie is niet bepaald sprake van eensgezindheid over het handelsbeleid van president Donald Trump. Handelsminister Howard Lutnick kreeg maandag een brandbrief van een twintigtal beleidsmakers die pleiten om de H20-chip van Nvidia niet naar China te exporteren. Verder in deze Tech Update: Kamerleden van Groenlinks-PvdA en NSC stellen tientallen vragen aan minister Van Weel van Justitie over het cyberincident bij het Openbaar Ministerie Sony klaagt Tencent aan met de beschuldiging dat het de door Nederland gemaakte gameserie Horizon plagieert See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Part 2 of our interview with EIU economist Tianchen Xu, we turn our focus to the Chinese consumer. Is spending recovering? What's happening in the housing market? And are the big headline sales events like 618 masking deeper issues in consumer confidence?Tianchen walks us through the mixed signals emerging from China's domestic economy, from retail sales rebounds to the drag of the property sector. He also explains the broader social and psychological drivers behind current consumption behavior and what he expects for the rest of the year.Discussion Points:The rebound in retail sales and why it may not reflect deep consumer confidenceHow the housing slowdown continues to weigh on economic psychologyThe role of savings, youth unemployment, and pandemic aftershocksLocal government infrastructure spending vs. private consumption as growth driversWhy we shouldn't expect a “bazooka” of stimulus—and what slow, steady support may look like

Tianchen analyzes Q1's headline 5.4% growth, discusses why the London trade truce between the US and China matters, and highlights what Western media narratives often miss when reporting on China's economy.We also explore how resilient China's economy really is in the face of renewed US tariffs, whether the truce will hold, and how all of this impacts international brands and investor sentiment. For anyone navigating China's economic landscape in 2025, this episode offers a level-headed, data-driven perspective.Discussion Points:Why Q1 2025's 5.4% GDP growth may be more complicated than it looksThe London US-China tariff agreement: what it covers and what could unravelHow China's supply chain reconfiguration may insulate it from future tariff shocksWhat Western media gets wrong about China's macro fundamentalsThe role of state-led investment and policy buffers in maintaining growth momentum

Alexis Garcia Alexis Garcia, born and raised in Miami, Florida, is an accomplished film producer, studio executive, and entrepreneur, widely recognized for his role in launching and scaling high-impact film ventures across the independent and studio landscape. He is the founder of CAT5, a turnkey production and financing company focused on high-concept, independently made action films, and co-founder of Brass Knuckle Films alongside acclaimed director Robert Rodriguez. Most recently, Garcia served as Head of Film at Fifth Season (formerly Endeavor Content), where he led the production and financing of over 40 films over 5 years. His portfolio includes major releases such as Ambulance (dir. Michael Bay), 80 for Brady (Paramount), The Peanut Butter Falcon (SXSW Audience Award), Monkey Man (dir. Dev Patel), The Long Game (SXSW Grand Jury Winner), Brawl in Cell Block 99 (starring Vince Vaughn), and The Lost Daughter (3 Academy Award nominations). In 2025, three of Garcia's movies reached audiences in a major way - A Working Man (Amazon/MGM, starring Jason Statham) opened #1 at the U.S. box office, Nonnas (Netflix) opened #1 on Netflix and became one of the platform's top titles of the year, and Friendship (SXSW premiere, starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd) opened as the year's top grossing limited theatrical release and was heralded as the return of the R rated cinematic comedy. Earlier, as a partner and agent at WME, Garcia helped package and sell hundreds of critically acclaimed and commercially successful films, including Drive (Nicolas Winding Refn, starring Ryan Gosling), The Nice Guys (Shane Black, starring Gosling and Russell Crowe), and The Favourite (Yorgos Lanthimos). He also spearheaded strategic initiatives such as the creation of foreign sales company Bloom, and led Endeavor's expansion into China, brokering talent ventures (Sylvester Stallone, David Goyer, Russo Brothers) and co-production deals with major studios like Perfect World, Tencent, and Village Roadshow. Garcia began his career as an entertainment attorney before joining Endeavor in 2007, rising to become a partner and later helping spin out the agency's content arm into what became Endeavor Content. He played a pivotal role in the division's growth from a sales and service operation into a vertically integrated production studio, culminating in its acquisition by CJ ENM. A graduate of Vanderbilt University with a JD from UCLA School of Law, Garcia continues to drive innovation in film production by bridging traditional Hollywood models with cutting-edge audience engagement and alternative financing strategies. He and his family (Tracy, Noa, Ozi and Busta) are proud Coconut Grove residents, having moved from Los Angeles in August of 2021.

With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense. Where does the buck stop, exactly? And how lucky is Sony and the PlayStation brand that they've been able to coast almost entirely on external content and commercial inertia all the while? Plus: MindsEye is a complete disaster, Stellar Blade becomes PlayStation Publishing's most-played single-player PC port, Capcom and Konami reveal Resident Evil Requiem and Silent Hill Remake respectively, the Outer Worlds 2's $80 price point infuriates some, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is somehow coming to PlayStation 4, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! When Colin talks about a hypothetical AAA Mega Man game, what exactly is he envisioning? Why did Microsoft include the PS5 logo so readily during its showcase?

Alibaba. Tencent. JD. Pinduoduo. Run down the list of China's most valuable companies and you'll find, for the most part, that they're all e-commerce companies—or at least facilitate e-commerce.

How did they build trust in the system? Lizhi Liu answers these questions in her latest book, From Click to Boom: The Political Economy of E-Commerce in China (Princeton University Press: 2024), where she also studies whether the “Taobao villages” really worked, and how we should think about the “crackdown” on China's tech sector in 2020 and 2021.
