Particulars about an epic-looking upcoming sci-fi journey sport simply dropped. The pictures and teaser trailer depict a post-apocalyptic world by which people in primitive-style garb battle big dinosaur-like robots whereas sweeping orchestral music performs. All of it appears a little bit acquainted. However wait, this isn’t the subsequent Horizon sport from Guerrilla. Oh, no, no. That is an preliminary look at a sport from a Tencent subsidiary known as Polaris Quest.
Guerrilla and Sony do not precisely maintain a monopoly on tamable robotic dinosaurs or open-world crafting video games. However at first look, Gentle of Motiram is a fairly blatant Horizon ripoff. It mimics Guerilla’s artwork fashion and animations, proper all the way down to the plentiful lens flares. One picture reveals a trio of human characters utilizing bows and spears to sort out a mammoth-style machine. Even the sport’s brand font and outline ape that of Horizon’s — Gentle of Motiram is about humanity’s try and “rebuild from the daybreak of a brand new primitive period.”
There are some variations, in equity. Right here, you possibly can assemble your individual shelters, whereas educated “Mechanimals” will help you in fight. There’s co-op help for as much as 10 gamers as properly. Whereas Guerrilla is engaged on a multiplayer sport, the current Lego Horizon Adventures spinoff is the one Horizon sport to this point that options co-op.
In a single sense, followers of the Horizon collection will perceive why it is apt that the video games appear to have successfully been cloned. We’ll have to attend to see simply how egregiously Polaris Quest has copied Aloy’s adventures. Gentle of Motiram would not have a launch window as but, however the seemingly free-to-play title is coming to Steam and the Epic Video games Retailer. Until Sony slaps Tencent with a cease-and-desist first, that’s.
