- The Battle of Polytopia is set to make history with the first Tesla gaming tournament
- Car owners will face off at OWN Valencia to take home the gold
- Tesla owner Elon Musk is a noted fan of the mobile 4x
Mobile 4x The Battle of Polytopia is set to make esports history this month, with the first Tesla-only esports tournament. Yes, you read that right, at the OWN Valencia digital entertainment tournament in Spain, two Tesla owners will face off against each other in the Battle of Polytopia, playing the game through their onboard entertainment system.
It’s not as strange an idea as it first sounds. The Battle of Polytopia is famously a favourite of Tesla tycoon Elon Musk, and while the SpaceX guru has dipped in many people’s estimations there is still a subset of Tesla diehards that make the Mini Cooper club look like agnostics.
The event will be hosted by Spanish gaming personalities Revol Aimar and BaleGG, and will (naturally) be played on the Tesla’s in-car touchscreen. The onboard entertainment system on the Tesla, if nothing else, has boasted a large number of games, especially ones from mobile.
Shocking stuff
So, is this a new paradigm shift? Will we soon all be competing in esports from our Teslas? Probably not, but it is an interesting story. Tesla owners often feel they have a bit of an exclusive club, resulting in a passion usually only shared by collectors of classic cars (and three-wheeled vans).
So we wish them the best of luck. Here’s hoping that they just remember to charge up the car before they get started.
