(c) the release of Light of Motiram will not be brought forward before the fourth quarter of 2027.

Luz de Motiram stops its promotion and public testing
Tencent’s opposition to Sony’s injunction is scheduled for December 17, 2025 and Sony’s response has been postponed to January 2, 2026.
The company seeks an order blocking Light of Motiram and prohibiting Tencent from using a “tribal warrior hunter“redhead who, according to them, looks a lot like Aloy.
