You won’t believe the latest drama unfolding in the gaming world. Elon Musk, yes, that Elon Musk, has thrown a curveball into our gaming discussions with his recent admissions about cheating in Diablo and Path of Exile. That’s right, he’s not just a tech mogul; he’s also been bending the rules in his favorite games!

Musk had built quite a reputation for himself as one of the top players in these beloved titles. He even had some impressive stats to back it up. But then came the backlash from content creators who were quick to scrutinize his claims. It all spiraled when he spoke candidly with YouTuber NikoWrex and confessed that he cheated to reach those heights.

Dishonest Conduct

If you’ve been following Musk on social media lately, you’d know he’s no stranger to gaming chats. Back in summer 2023, during a Twitter live session (still Twitter at that time), he couldn’t contain his enthusiasm for Diablo 4, which had just launched. Fast forward a couple of months, and this guy had become a streaming sensation with over 1.3 million viewers tuning into his gameplay.

The hype around him being a ‘top 20 player’ sparked conversations and investigations by other streamers like Asmongold. Talk about drama! After some intense scrutiny, it became clear that there was more than met the eye regarding Musk’s ranking.

How Was Elon Musk Cheating?

Screenshots from DMs between Musk and NikoWrex popped up online (shout out to TweakTown). In these messages, he admitted that dominating players from Asia requires sharing your account with others, a big no-no under many game policies.

This practice is known as account sharing, where players exchange their login details so others can play while they’re away or busy doing something else. Here’s what Elon said:

The top accounts in Diablo or PoE require multiple people playing the account to win a leveling race.

Musk still stands by his skills, though. He mentioned:

No matter how you cut it, a sub 2 min clear of the hardest level in Diablo is very fast. My run is posted to X. Very few mistakes were made.

Not stopping there, even Elon’s ex-wife tweeted on social media defending him! She claimed he was among the first American druids to clear certain levels and even beat Felix at Polytopia…
