Elon Musk does not play Fortnite. The revelation came during a vlog posted Tuesday by Kai Trump. President Donald Trump’s grand daughter documented a trip to Texas last week to watch a SpaceX rocket launch. During a discussion with the Tesla CEO, Kai asks if he played Fortnite. Musk’s response was no, but he revealed he played “Quake and a bunch of other first person shooters.”
President-elect Donald Trump attended the SpaceX rocket launch with Musk in Brownsville, Texas. On November 19, 2024, Trump joined Musk to witness the launch of SpaceX’s Starship rocket. This event marked the sixth test flight of the Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket ever built.
The launch was a significant moment, with the rocket lifting off from SpaceX’s facility near Boca Chica, Texas. The Starship’s booster successfully separated and returned to the Gulf of Mexico for a controlled splashdown. Trump and Musk’s presence at the launch underscored their close relationship, with Musk set to play a significant role in Trump’s upcoming administration.
This collaboration highlights the ongoing advancements in space exploration and the strong ties between influential figures in technology and politics.

While the SpaceX leader is not playing the game, his Tesla brand has been featured in the Epic Games hit. In fact, the Tesla Cybertruck appeared as a purchasable vehicle in the Fortnite shop. To be clear, the Cybertruck was also able to be unlocked in game during a series of quests in August 2024.
