Last year, a user also discovered that one could play Google Stadia via the Tesla web browser, accompanied by a video of them playing Assassin’s Creed. Tesla CEO Elon Musk also said last year that The Witcher would someday be available onboard for Tesla’s cars.

Tesla was also allegedly considering a next-generation AMD processor for its next infotainment system, which could support its future goals of making its cars more game-friendly.
