Tesla is working on making Steam games work on its vehicles, according to CEO Elon Musk on Tuesday afternoon.
When asked about the latest Model S and Model X version of Cyberpunk by Ryan McCaffrey, Musk replied, “We’re working through the general case of making Steam games work on a Tesla vs specific titles. Former is obviously where we should be long-term.”
Steam offers close to 30,000 games available instantly online, from major developers to indie game makers. It’s an online gaming community as well, allowing gamers to chat with friends, broadcast gameplay and more.

Musk also replied with a “100” when someone asked about Cyberpunk being on Cybertruck.
The newest Tesla vehicles are using AMD Ryzen processors, which are also found in Sony’s PlayStation 5, bringing console gaming power to Musk’s electric vehicle lineup.
The Model S/X refresh were the first to get AMD Ryzen, but the latter has since trickled down to the Model 3 and Model Y.
By working on allowing Steam games to work on Tesla, it would open up even more entertainment options for the company’s vehicles. Tesla will soon be debuting its own branded gaming controller, first seen last June.
