Mashable: Musk live streamed his gameplay of the Nightmare dungeon game on platform X, capturing the entire experience in a video lasting nearly 40 minutes.

Elon Musk is currently conducting trials on the micro-blogging platform to incorporate video game streaming and live shopping features, with the aim of transforming X into a comprehensive application.

Musk shared a video on X, wherein he stated: "I conducted a trial of the X video game streaming system last night and it was successful. I intend to attempt a live completion of a Tier 100 Nightmare dungeon on this platform tonight."

He also live streamed his gameplay of the Nightmare dungeon game on platform X, capturing the entire experience in a video lasting nearly 40 minutes.

"Testing the video game streaming feature on X," Musk stated in the video.

Numerous users expressed their opinions on this development.

"I am embarking on a journey with X's live game streaming! It introduces a whole new world of gaming, and I am eagerly looking forward to sharing my experiences with all of you. Expect thrilling gaming sessions filled with action and interactive fun," a user wrote.

"This is going to become my new preferred method of watching streams," another user commented.

In addition, the company announced a new collaboration with prominent socialite Paris Hilton and her esteemed 11:11 Media enterprise, with the aim of embarking on trials of live shopping functionalities.

During Vox Media's Code 2023 technology conference earlier this week, CEO Linda Yaccarino of X revealed that the company presently boasts a user base of 225 million individuals who engage with the platform on a daily basis. This figure represents a substantial decrease of tens of millions or 11.6 percent of users compared to the period just prior to Musk's acquisition of the company.

As per a sequence of tweets shared by Musk himself in November of the previous year, Twitter's daily active user count stood at 254.5 million in the week leading up to his takeover in late November of that same year.
