French video game publisher Ubisoft recently took a jab at Elon Musk after the billionaire criticized a new addition to the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Musk had insinuated that Ubisoft was paying streamers to promote the game, to which the official Assassin’s Creed account responded by mocking Musk’s alleged habit of cheating at online games. The response went viral, receiving millions of views and thousands of likes and comments.
Musk’s gaming skills have been under scrutiny for a while, with social media users questioning his claims of being a top-ranked player in games like Path of Exile 2. During a stream of the game in January, Musk’s gameplay was criticized for being that of a beginner rather than an expert player. He was even kicked from the game for performing too many actions too quickly, leading to speculations of cheating.
The exchange between Ubisoft and Musk has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with many users praising the Assassin’s Creed account for its witty comeback. Some even claimed they would buy the game just for the response. Musk’s reputation as a gamer has taken a hit following these incidents, with influencers and fans questioning his skills and integrity in the gaming community.
The controversy highlights the intersection of gaming, celebrity, and social media, where even billionaires like Musk are not immune to scrutiny and criticism. Ubisoft’s response serves as a reminder that in today’s digital age, no one is safe from being called out on their actions, even if they are at the top of their respective industries.
