Tesla has released a software update that finally brings support for Steam video games to its vehicles, but not all models are equipped with it.
Every year, as the holiday season approaches, Tesla offers an update to its customers. This year, it includes the integration of Steam into the brand’s electric cars. This new software version introduces many other features, such as the Apple Music streaming service.
Steam available only on Tesla Model S and X
Steam offers a huge library of video games. Its integration into Tesla electric vehicles is still in the launch phase but should improve over time. The Steam integration concerns the Model S and Model X. These models are equipped with a more powerful entertainment computer, designed for video gaming.
The onboard entertainment system boasts up to 10 TFLOPS of power. A processing strength comparable to today’s latest consoles, via Tesla Arcade. All wireless controllers can be used for gaming. According to Elon Musk, the new computer would have greater storage capacity. It can therefore handle more games, which will be useful for managing your Steam library.
Tesla believes that with the advent of autonomous driving, the practice of video games will become more prominent inside vehicles. Therefore, it has employed several teams of software engineers who work exclusively on video games. These teams are based in Seattle and Austin respectively.
