In Sony’s defense, this actually seems like a case of copyright working as intended. Tencent basically started creating a Horizon game before getting approval from Sony, then they asked Sony and Sony said no, so they just went ahead and made it anyway, but they did the bare minimum to obscure that the game used to be a Horizon project. If Sony can prove that these facts are true, they definitely have a case. On the other hand, Tencent may have a point when they say that Horizon is in itself a derivative concept, so it’s a bit silly to accuse anyone of ripping off a franchise that is not particularly original.
