PewDiePie reveals big YouTube announcement inspired by Dream and Corpse Husband PewDiePie\/Corpse HusbandYouTube star Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg announced in a new video that he was doing away with his face cam to try and \u201cstay relevant\u201d with the likes of other creators like Dream and Corpse Husband. Pewds is easily one of the most popular content creators on the internet, but in an effort to maintain his relevance, as he put it, the Swede announced a major change coming to his videos and streams in the future. Fans don\u2019t have to worry too much \u2014 as Pewds didn\u2019t announce he was taking any more time off \u2014 but he did reveal a major change coming to his channel: getting rid of his face cam. In a new video posted on January 23, Pewds announced he was doing a \u201creverse face reveal\u201d AKA just getting rid of his self-facing camera and replacing it with an avatar like Dream, Corpse Husband or any of the other YouTubers who have hopped on the trend. \u201cI\u2019ve realized that the only way for me to stay relevant at this point, it\u2019s necessary for me to do this,\u201d Kjellberg joked. \u201cCorpse Husband: no face cam, no face reveal, massively popular. Dream: no face cam, no face reveal, massively popular.\u201d True to his word for the rest of the video Pewds did do away with the camera and just used an icon, but he hasn\u2019t settled on a final avatar yet, and is asking for fans help. \u201cI haven\u2019t picked my avatar yet, so I figured why don\u2019t you guys on the PewDiePie submissions subreddit?\u201d PewDiePie added. \u201cHelp me pick my 3D avatar, because they all have one.\u201d Hopefully, fans can come up with something a little better than the image Pewds chose for this video, even though it was hilarious \u2014 it\u2019s not what you want people to see every time they tune in. It also remains to be seen how long PewDiePie will keep this gimmick up. Sure, streaming with a 3D avatar or no face cam is all the rage right now, but one could argue Kjellberg could probably survive without one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
