In a sizzling exchange on social media, the developers behind Assassin’s Creed Shadows have fired back at Elon Musk amid a heated feud with streamer Hasan. The controversy erupted after Musk, owner of X (formerly Twitter) and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, lambasted Hasan for promoting what he called a “terrible game,” while Hasan fired back with equally cutting remarks about Musk’s gaming history. 🎮🔥
💣 The Roast and the Feud 💣
- Grummz’s Screenshot:
On March 25, former game developer and X user Grummz posted a screenshot of Hasan advertising Assassin’s Creed Shadows on Bluesky, taking a swipe at Ubisoft. He commented, “You can tell a lot about Ubisoft with how much money they are throwing at terrorist-platforming streamers,” referencing Hasan’s controversial interview with a Houthi sympathizer (a group designated as a terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department).
- Musk’s Retort:
Not one to back down, Elon Musk responded with his own criticism, calling Hasan a “fraud” and adding, “‘Sell-out’ would be more accurate. Objectively, he is promoting a terrible game just for the money.” ⚡
- Hasan’s Counter:
Hasan fired back by questioning Musk’s own gaming credibility, claiming, “This b*tch literally paid someone to powerlevel his character in POE2.” He then challenged Musk to a duel in Elden Ring, daring him to prove his skills on the battlefield. 🎮🗡️
- Asmongold’s Involvement:
Fellow streamer Asmongold joined the fray, expressing willingness to organize a 1v1 duel—streamed from both sides—to ensure Musk is actually playing.
🎯 The Developer’s Clapback 🎯
Even the Assassin’s Creed Shadows team couldn’t resist joining the spat. In response to Musk’s jab about the game, the official Assassin’s Creed X account sarcastically fired back:
“Is that what the guy playing your Path of Exile 2 account told you?”
This clever comeback left users stunned—and many were so impressed, they even announced they’d purchase the game!
- “Ok I will buy your game!”
- “F**k it I’m buying the game a 3rd time!!”
- “Cooked!!! Haha. Your game is still ass.”
So far, Elon Musk has not responded to the developers’ witty remark, but he has hinted at big plans—like forming his own game company to compete with Ubisoft, and even launching an AI game studio to “make games great again.” 🚀
