After politics, Elon Musk wants to launch his own video game studio

Elon Musk is making headlines once again, this time with the proposal to create his own video game studio. The billionaire's continuous ambition is evident as he recently launched his new venture, xAI, which has attracted significant attention and resources, including numerous NVIDIA chips. This new announcement signals Musk's interest in the gaming industry, citing concerns about its current political climate.

Musk, known for his immense wealth, as illustrated by Bloomberg's latest ranking of the world's richest individuals, believes he can fund his fight against what he perceives as excessive "wokeness" in gaming. He expressed his frustrations on X, stating that "too many game studios are owned by large corporations" and plans to establish a new project in the sector.

He mentioned, "xAI will create an AI game studio to make games great again," echoing Donald Trump's slogan. While this bold declaration raises eyebrows, it may also be viewed as mere bravado, reminiscent of Musk's previous proposal to buy MSNBC. The political climate following Donald Trump’s presidential victory has heightened enthusiasm in certain circles, prompting industry figures to make sweeping statements.
