Career

PewDiePie started his career on YouTube in 2006 under the name Pewdie. He was fond of shooting games at first so the name PewDie came from Pew from the sound of laser and Die from the name die. He stopped playing games after some time on YouTube and completely forgot his password so he made a new channel named PewDiePie in April 2010. PewDiePie was a massive gaming fan but most of the videos on YouTube were about places and cats so he decided to upload his gaming videos which were mostly horror videos. His amazing reaction and funny videos immediately started to create an audience on the platform as he slowly but steadily started to grow.

PewDiePie also started making gaming videos on popular games such as Minecraft and Call of Duty which was a massive franchise but not on YouTube so he started making lets plays of those games as well. After 2011 PiewDiePie gaming started to blow up as he become the fastest-growing YouTuber on the platform. His popular let’s play of Amnesia: The Dark Descent amassed millions of subscribers. As he started to become more and more popular, PewDiePie started to host a podcast type of show known as Fridays with PewDiePie where he talked about his life and sometimes vlogged his holidays, his setup, etc. Just in the span of 12 months Felix’s channel grew to over 450,000 subscribers and by the end of 2012, he has a million subscribers which seemed surreal to PewDiePie. Felix joined Machinima gaming studios but due to some complications, he switched to Maker a rival of Machinima.

PewDiePie already had over 5 million subscribers in the middle of 2013 but he was starting to face controversy due to his consistent use of the term rape in gaming videos. Felix apologized for his lack of awareness and promised never to use them again. Due to being the pioneer of YouTube Gaming, many new YouTubes see him as the mentor of YouTube gaming. He became the fastest person to have 100 million YouTube subscribers and currently has well over 10 million YouTube subscribers which place him at no 5 positions on the overall position ranking. PewDiePie also started collaborating with many channels, contributing to charity events, and opening up more about his life. He revealed, “Quitting University for Games was One of my Stupid Decision but it turns out to be the best decision”.
