Alex Jones Launches 'Anti-Globalist' Online Video Game

InfoWars boss says game has "Deep State" panicked

Notorious American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has started 2024 with the launch of an “anti-woke, anti-globalist, and anti-politically correct" online video game titled “NWO WARS” (“New World Order Wars”).

Jones made the announcement to his two million  followers on X (formerly known as Twitter) on January 5.

The video game is hosted by Steam, one of the largest online gaming platforms that boasts over 100 million monthly users. Downloading the game costs $17.76, an allusion to the American Revolution of 1776, a date frequently cited by pro-Trump supporters including the insurrectionists who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Narrated by Jones, the game portrays Hillary Clinton as a witch, includes “gay frogs” (a meme popularized by Jones), and even references to Epstein Island.

Players also confront other vilified figures in conspiracy theory circles, such as Anthony Fauci, the former White House Coronavirus Task Force head, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, World Economic Forum President Klaus Schwab, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Online gaming culture has long been a preferred medium for the far-right and conspiracy theorists to reach younger generations, acquainting them with conspiratorial ideologies and references.

For sixteen years, Conspiracy Watch has been diligently spreading awareness about the perils of conspiracy theories through real-time monitoring and insightful analyses. To keep our mission alive, we rely on the critical support of our readers.
