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.
So, is this a novel paradigm shift? Will we shortly all be competing in esports from our Teslas? Likely not, but it is an intriguing story. Tesla owners frequently experience a sense of belonging to a select club, which fosters a zeal typically only observed among collectors of vintage automobiles (and three-wheeled vans).
Thus, we extend our best wishes to them. Here's hoping they don't forget to charge the vehicle before beginning.
