CARY, N.C. — After players reported multiple issues when attempting to use the vehicle, the Tesla Cybertruck has been recalled in Fortnite after barely a day of being in the game.
“I was in a firefight and ran out of ammo so I got into a Cybertruck that was nearby, but as soon as it hit a gentle incline it began to roll backwards, right into the path of the player I was trying to run from, and those windows definitely are not bullet proof,” TokinGamer420 said on X – The Everything App, “I thought maybe it was a glitch, but I got into another one in the next round and it exploded as soon as I tried accelerating.”
Elon Musk, avid gamer and noted absentee father, posted on X about the issue.
“Concerning,” Musk replied to one gamer’s post, “Looking into it!” He followed up on the same post before writing on his timeline, “Whoever Epic put in charge of adding the Cybertruck to Fortnite had to be yet another DEI hire, this is why the woke mind virus must be eradicated.”
Multiple Cybertruck fans were quick to rush to the defense of the much maligned vehicle, echoing Musk’s sentiments that DEI hiring policies and “wokeness” must be the culprits.
“LMAO anyone who believes this is just falling for woke propaganda. I’ve owned a Cybertruck since day one and the only time it hasn’t worked properly is whenever I try and drive it anywhere. Sorry libtards, no one is falling for your lies,” TeslaFanBoi posted on X – The Everything App.
“Fortnite allows you to play as a nongendered banana, is it surprising that they would try and make Elon look bad?,” DogeCoinMuskFan said in a reply to Musks’ own post.
At press time, three players were seen trying to push a Cybertruck out of a mud puddle while their fourth floored the accelerator in vain.
