An Exhausted ‘Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ Hits Back At Elon Musk
- On March 25, 2025, Elon Musk ignited a viral feud by calling the upcoming Assassin's Creed Shadows a terrible game after HasanAbi promoted it, leading to responses from streamers, game studios, and the Tesla CEO on X.
- The controversy began after HasanAbi, a political livestreamer, promoted Assassin's Creed Shadows in a sponsored livestream and on his Bluesky account, prompting Musk to call him a "fraud" who was only playing the game "just for the money".
- Musk's comments referenced earlier allegations that he hired gamers to power-level his character in Path of Exile 2, a claim made by Twitch streamer Quin69 in January 2025, suggesting Musk's gaming credibility was questionable.
- Ubisoft's official Assassin's Creed account clapped back at Elon Musk on X with the retort, "Is that what the guy playing your Path of Exile 2 account told you?", which received over 164,000 likes, vastly outpacing Musk's original comment's 12,000 likes.
- Following the online exchange, HasanAbi challenged Musk to a duel in Elden Ring and to appear on one of his streams, while other content creators like Asmongold supported the accusations of Musk using outside help and Mark "Grummz" Kern criticized Ubisoft for working with Hasan, further fueling the online buzz around Assassin's Creed Shadows.
