Since Musk and Bezos are actually building rockets I'd think they'd find a simulation to be less fun in comparison. But maybe they'd enjoy it the way a chess grandmaster enjoys playing blitz as relaxation during a break in a tournament game.

Musk has joked in the past in some Reddit AMAs that he models all his rockets in Kerbal Space Program first so who knows.

This is more likely to be marketing than reality. If he really works 100 hours a week.

Maybe modeling rockets in Kerbal is part of that 100hrs of work.

Musk is already playing a game; it's called "the simulation", and we're all in it. I'm not joking; according to him, we are most likely in a simulation. [0]
