Twitter god Elon Musk has confirmed the first batch of games playable on the newly refreshed Tesla Model S sedanโs 10-teraflop gaming computer. The powerful machine, positioned in the middle of the carโs interior with a screen next to the steering wheel, will be able to display a range of games including Cuphead, Fallout Shelter, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and Cyberpunk 2077.
The sheer power behind Teslaโs gaming computer puts it only slightly behind both the PS5 and Xbox Series X in terms of graphics grunt, with the new-gen gaming consoles sitting at 10.28 teraflops and 12 teraflops, respectively.
Musk tweeted a photo of the carโs interior with the caption โPlaid Model S ships next monthโ, showing off the dashboard display alongside an announcement that this will be the โfirst production car ever to achieve 0 to 60 mph in less than 2 secondsโ and sport โ0 to 155 mph trap speed in a 1/4 mile [and] 200 mph top speed (with right tyres)โ.

Drivers wanting to load their Tesla Model S sedan with games can do so via purchasing titles on a dedicated โTesla Arcadeโ and using the carโs โwireless controller compatibilityโ, meaning players can control the action on screen from any seat.
Notably, itโs not yet clear if Teslaโs gaming machine will be playable while the car is driving; it reportedly has only been confirmed that games are playable while the car is stationary and parked. Teslaโs self-driving technology is still improving and requires the driver to remain alert at all times, so at least for now, itโs safer to expect that the gaming functions of the Tesla Model S sedan will only be available when the car isnโt on the go.
