Story Highlights
- Elon Musk, being one of the biggest celebrities on the planet, has announced a new gaming division for xAI.
- xAI will start making video games in the near future in an attempt to “make games great again.”
- Elon has had experience with video game development in the past, having made a game at 12 years old.
Musk-founded startup xAI is an AI company that focuses on “the true nature of the universe,” but now, the organization will seemingly mark its foray into the domain of video game development as well. Taking to X, Elon Musk made a bold statement about the gaming industry, going on to announce xAI’s gaming division.
Too many game studios that are owned by massive corporations. xAI
is going to start an AI game studio to make games great again!” said Elon.
xAI primarily focuses its resources on artificial intelligence, having contributed to multiple noteworthy works in the AI industry. Musk also spoke about the gaming industry as a whole earlier, chanting the “Make Games Great Again!” motto as he went on to talk about inclusion in video games.
The problem with the DEI and the woke mind virus is that it kills the art. When you see something that’s forcibly imposed on a game, it destroys the art. It kicks you out of the story, because you feel you’re bring lectured. Let me just enjoy my video games!”
The Current State Of The Gaming Industry
Amid failed releases, live service project priority, and extensive microtransactions, the gaming industry continues to grow year in and year out, offering nothing but the best in terms of sheer innovation. Some recent examples include Baldur’s Gate 3, Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, Astro Bot, Stellar Blade—I could go on and on.

However, with regard to Elon’s plans, an AI gaming company sounds skeptical, and I’m not sure what to expect from the venture going forward. Fan reaction is obviously met with negativity, with a certain Redditor saying,
Great. Can’t wait to not play them.”
