Competitors, how to watch and more MrBeast, YouTube \/ Epic GamesPopular YouTuber Jimmy \u2018MrBeast\u2019 Donaldson is back at it again with yet another insane challenge \u2013 and this time, it\u2019s a full-fledged battle royale. On February 15, MrBeast announced that he\u2019d be holding the YouTube Battle Royale featuring some of the biggest YouTubers. While he admitted that it wasn\u2019t an original concept, he managed to use his status as one of the most popular content creators around to set up what looks to be one of the biggest events of 2019. What is the YouTube Battle Royale? The battle royale competition will capitalize on the popularity of the genre by bringing things to life with many of the biggest battle royale YouTubers and Twitch streamer and pitting them against each other. In true MrBeast fashion, the competition will have plenty of monetary stakes at hand, as he\u2019s put up a massive $100,000 prize pool, much like his YouTuber circle challenge from early December 2018. When is the YouTube Battle Royale? As detailed in MrBeast\u2019s initial tweet, the Battle Royale will take place on March 6 at an unnamed location in Los Angeles, California. MrBeast likewise claimed that competitors will be paired in duos, likely in reference to popular battle royale game Fortnite. Although some of the participants have named more than one person as their teammates, so it\u2019s unclear what the rules of the event actually are. Attention epic gamers On March 6th I\u2019m hosting an in real life Youtuber Battle Royal with airsoft guns, winner gets $100,000. It will be in LA and similar to Dude Perfects\u2019s video (which btw I really enjoyed).

MrBeast also admitted to taking inspiration from popular YouTube group Dude Perfect, who created a similar challenge in the style of battle royale game PUBG using airsoft guns in November 2018. A quick look at the group\u2019s video on the subject shows an action-packed, paintball-esque competition, complete with POV cameras and a compelling map layout. When can I watch the YouTube Battle Royale? Unfortunately, this is one of the biggest question marks for the upcoming event. While we know that the event will take place on March 6, there\u2019s no word yet on when the video will be released. Given the fact that many streamers will be in attendance, it wouldn\u2019t be a surprise to see it streamed in some capacity. There\u2019s been no official word on the existence of a stream, however. Whenever the video does drop, though, it\u2019s sure to be one of the most watched videos in quite some time given the sheer number of popular content creators that will be in attendance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
