The Battle of Polytopia is poised to make esports history this month with the first-ever Tesla-only gaming tournament. At the OWN Valencia digital entertainment event in Spain, two Tesla owners will compete head-to-head in The Battle of Polytopia, using their vehicle's onboard entertainment system. This unique competition not only showcases the innovative use of car technology but also taps into the passion of Tesla enthusiasts.
The idea isn't as outlandish as it might seem. The Battle of Polytopia is a known favorite of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, whose influence in the tech world remains significant despite varying public opinions. The tournament will be hosted by Spanish gaming personalities Revol Aimar and BaleGG and will be played on the Tesla's in-car touchscreen. The Tesla's entertainment system has long been praised for its extensive game library, particularly for mobile titles.
While this event might not signal a paradigm shift in esports, it certainly adds an intriguing chapter to the story. Tesla owners often feel part of an exclusive club, a sentiment usually reserved for collectors of classic cars or quirky three-wheeled vans.
We wish the competitors the best of luck and hope they remember to charge their vehicles before the tournament begins.
