This update is not surprising as Musk hinted about watching videos on Youtube at E3. This feature will be the part of the V10 software update for Tesla cars. The update will include several arcade games, infotainment characteristics, enhanced autopilot, enhanced traffic light and stop sign recognition and Smart Summon.

As per The Verge, drivers can play games like Fallout Shelter, Tempest, Pole Position and Missle Command. These games can only be played while the car is parked and the steering wheel can be used as a console. The company recently tweeted that the drivers will soon be able to play chess in Tesla Arcade.

All this is sure to bring joy to The Tesla Owners but there is a huge safety concern as these features require heavy testing and extreme caution before rolling them out to the public and even with the advancement of self-driving technology ensuring complete safety will always remain a concern.
