Elon Musk’s love for video games hasn’t been hidden from fans. He frequently makes references to video games in his Tweets. In any case, he extended congratulations to the Elden Ring team for winning the ‘Game of the Year’ award by taking a look back at recent events.

Musk’s most recent mention has admirers wondering if he is related to controversial online personality and former kickboxing champion Andrew Tate. He and his brother Tristan were recently taken into custody on suspicion of human trafficking and money laundering. Nevertheless, he was freed following a quick questioning by Romanian authorities.

Fans react to Elon Musk’s recent Tweet 

Similarities between Andrew Tate’s and Elon Musk’s ideologies 

The Tesla founder wrote in a Tweet, “If you don’t think there’s at least a tiny chance you’re an NPC … you’re an NPC.” For those who are unfamiliar with the term, a non-playable character (NPC) is a character that cannot act on its own initiative in a video game. The NCP is solely designed to carry out certain tasks.

Fans have drawn comparisons between it and Andrew Tate’s ‘Matrix’ theory. He frequently claims that the world is a matrix and it is deceiving people everywhere. Musk even posted an image on Twitter with a Matrix reference.
