Elon Musk has announced that his artificial intelligence company xAI is developing a video game, promising it will be a "great AI-generated game" and that it will launch before the end of 2026.

The statement was made directly on X, where Musk wrote "the xAI game studio will release a great AI-generated game before the end of next year."

According to the report, the roles are being offered at up to $100 an hour, suggesting that xAI is willing to invest heavily in preparing its technology for the gaming market. This hiring drive aligns with Musk's broader plan to expand xAI beyond chatbots and into new forms of interactive media.


Earlier last year, Musk hinted at plans for an AI-driven game studio, but his latest post is the clearest confirmation yet that xAI intends to release a full game.

Don't see the issue. If it's shit no one will play it. If it's good people will play it. Actually NVM people play death stranding still

WELCOME TO TEH FUTURE, MANG, MACHINE, THE FUTUUUUUUURE

 

[StueyDuck]

People who own AI companies make big grand promises or tell insane stories so they can sell their AI...

I wish ALL the AI tech bros like Musk would shut up, like that one recently about a "rogue AI" that tried to "kill someone". Such BS

 

[Clear]

This is gonna fail. Hard.

Have he seen the digital stores these days? AI games are everywhere. Hello, I creating an parody game using AI.

How does one create that one does not create himself?

The average person tend to think we're one step away from Terminator's future, the truth is that our AI still mistake a cat for a dog. AI are dumb as fuck but big tech wants you to think it's omnicient thanks to some cleverly chosen examples. Sure they're serviceable but we're far from them being really clever.

 

[Physiognomonics]

It's the future. The first game might not be great but they'll improve. Thankfully Musk has good gaming tastes (Elden Ring, Diablo IV).

This is gonna fail. Hard.

Like every Musk projects did before?

 

[Heisenberg007]

Elon Ring.

 

[bighugeguns]

It's like an investment vending machine, you insert $20 000 000,00, out pops a AAA game catered to your target market built from analytics as specific as heart rate responses to content, out marches little automated agents that will do your marketing and distribution for you and everything, you just need to collect revenue.

No people, no problems!

It's beautiful.

The rich will get richer, balanced as all things should be.

 

[Cakeboxer]

I have no prejudice. If the game is good, i will play it.

 

[DirtInUrEye]

And when it comes out he'll be number one in the world in its player rankings.

I look forward to my derivative bullshit game, much needed in a market which is already full of derivative bullshit games from both major studios and indie devs alike.

The future of big games automation will be Microsoft vs Musk, Nintendo is super conservative, they're unique and established enough to stick to legacy hand crafting behind the trends.

 

[nkarafo]

The guy has the budget to make his own AAA++++ studio and hire a ton of devs to make him whatever game he wants.

 

[kat_on_the_roof]

I think it's more likely AI-assisted game development. AI-developed games obviously sound more exciting and generate more clicks (attention).

That's pointless and non-disruptive, just replace all humans in the entire process so you can sell that repeatedly on demand instead, that's cooler.

No people, no woke bullshit. It's the clankers vs blue hairs era. Purple era making way for Grey era.

 

[Loomy]

Sure. And the Tesla Roadster is coming out this year.

 

[Revolutionary]

It'll be funny if it just makes one of those eShop shovelware games

 

[John Bilbo]

It's good to have plans.

 

[Spukc]

Good i hope AI will buy that sheit

 

[Thief1987]

Thankfully Musk has good gaming tastes (Elden Ring, Diablo IV).

You never learn, aren't you? Phil the gamer didn't teach you anything?

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

Sounds good to me and I look forward to it.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

I thought they already tried that

Big AI is our only hope to necro the mighty Concord from its grave.

As soon as the power plants are operational we can start the ritual.

WELCOME TO TEH FUTURE, MANG, MACHINE, THE FUTUUUUUUURE

If it's as good as Trials, I'm all in.

 

[Aressa]

There will be so much developer involvement in fixing AI design issues that it might as well be like any other game.

 

[nush]

I just expect it to crap out a game with all the polish of Goat Simulator.

 

[bighugeguns]

If it's as good as Trials, I'm all in.

I would just ask it to make a few Kojima-authentic sequels to MGS on PS1. That'd be me happy. Hope we get a personal-use non-commercial license to print games. Would rather spend my money on that than on commercial games, honestly.

You probably won't be able to share gameplay via YouTube unless the license allows it. That would be rad as a side hustle.

This could potentially be life changing for gaming streamers and content creators.

Pay Konami $60 for a custom personal-use AAA MGS sequel by Grok, everyone wins.

I'll pay $15 for retro sequels.

Was the same with AI video, then a year later shit got wild. You just can't keep up with the speed of this tech it's insane.

That's cool.. indie games will get to put " man made " as a selling point.

Nintendo could also bank on that to stay valuable.
