Add Andre Rebelo to the list of creators who are seeing dollar signs within the world of Fortnite. The streamer known as Typical Gamer has announced Jogo, a self-proclaimed “super studio” that will invest $2 million to develop custom Fortnite experiences.

2023 was a huge year for Roblox and its community of game developers. According to a company filing, the 18-year-old sandbox title paid out $741 million to creators during the most recent calendar year, with 100 different games each bringing in at least $1 million in sales.
Game designers use Roblox to build interactive experiences for the platform’s 68 million daily active users, the majority of whom are 16 years old or younger. The projects built in Roblox use the in-game Robux currency to generate sales; Robux can then be exchanged for real-world currency. According to Bloomberg, the exchange rate from Robux to U.S. dollars is about 285-to-1.
Though past investigations have asked whether Roblox exploits its community of game-building minors, the amount of money paid out to the platform’s creators has been steadily increasing. Earlier this year, Roblox revamped its Creator Marketplace so that creators could take home 100% of the earnings from assets like models and plugins.

GameSquare is venturing into the metaverse. The gaming firm backed by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has announced Moonlight Studios, a division that will build custom experiences in game worlds like Roblox, Fortnite, and Grand Theft Auto.
Moonlight has been operating in stealth for six months. The unit is led by Head of Studio Kyle Rapozo, a former Fortnite pro who is known as Kaz on his social channels. Rapozo played Fortnite on the team run by FaZe Clan; GameSquare acquired FaZe in an October 2023 deal that united two esports power players.
Rapozo’s team of developers is working alongside Zoned, the GameSquare-owned creative agency that has worked with brands like Cash App, Amazon, Epic Games, and Jack in The Box. Moonlight will leverage Zoned’s capabilities to bring experiential campaigns into the metaverse.

Jimmy Donaldson has turned to big tech to find a corporate sponsor for his blockbuster productions. The creator known as MrBeast has partnered with Samsung to make the Korean company’s Galaxy brand his official vlog camera.

The Sidemen are all set for their biggest charity soccer match today, and even sports bettors are starting to take notice. The website SportsLens has shared official odds for the U.K. supergroup’s next clash with the so-called “YouTube All-Stars”.
The Sidemen — Ksi, Miniminter, Zerkaa, Tbjzl, Behzinga, Vikkstar123, and W2S — have defeated the YouTube All-Stars in three of their four previous meetings.

Dream Smp hosted its final stream earlier this year, but Karl Jacobs is betting that merch based on the legendary Minecraft server is still in high demand. Jacobs has extended his partnership with retailer Journeys by debuting Vans sneakers inspired by his latest comic book.

As he expands his Feastables brand beyond candy bars, Jimmy Donaldson is working with one of his long-time collaborators. The man known as MrBeast has introduced Karl’s Gummies, a sweet treat that features Karl Jacobs‘ face on its packaging.
Donaldson and Jacobs introduced Karl’s Gummies in early April, when the duo starred in an out-of-this-world video for Feastables’ social accounts. Jacobs, dressed as an astronaut, creates an interstellar, apple-flavored explosion. He ends up marooned, but he at least gets a tasty treat to snack on while he floats through space.

A Minecraft server that vaulted its members to international stardom has come to an end. On April 10, creators like Dream, TommyInnit, and Tubbo gathered for the final stream in the influential history of Dream Smp.

During the first years of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Dream Smp proved itself to be both a beloved entertainment hub for quarantined viewers and a groundbreaking experiment in the genre of video game storytelling.

You don’t rack up 140 million YouTube subscribers without winning yourself some toxic fans. Jimmy Donaldson — a.k.a. MrBeast — has his share despite a personal brand built around positivity, as well as goofy, expensive stunts.
One of the most-watched creators online, Donaldson styles his MrBeast channel as an institution of philanthropic fun, staging massive cash giveaway competitions that double as viral videos. But all the money in the world can’t shield you from the culture wars, and now MrBeast fans are split regarding his friend and collaborator Chris Tyson.

Karl Jacobs is making a big move in the world of Roblox. The gamer, Twitch star, and MrBeast collaborator is teaming up with Misfits Gaming and KreekCraft to launch Pixel Playground, a studio devoted to Roblox game creation.
Pixel Playground will be led by Jacobs and KreekCraft (real name Forrest Waldron), who will serve as the studio’s Co-Founder and Creative Director, respectively. Misfits will supply the two creators with the resources and operational support they need to execute their Roblox game ideas.
Jacobs and Waldron also plan to collaborate with other prominent personalities in the Roblox space. Though many kids enjoy spending time in the virtual sandbox, Pixel Playground’s Roblox projects will be intended for players above the age of 13. By aging up its community, the new studio hopes to attract attention from advertisers.
Many of Jacobs’ early streams involved Roblox, though he’s better known for his adventures in Minecraft worlds.

Jacobs, a longtime part of the MrBeast crew and also part of Dream Smp—will be a first-time featured creator, and will also film an episode of his podcast Banter live onstage with co-hosts Sapnap and GeorgeNotFound.

If you watched the 2022 Streamy Awards, you may have wondered why Jimmy Donaldson traveled to Antarctica instead of accepting his third-straight Creator of the Year award. On Christmas Eve, subscribers to Donaldson’s MrBeast channel got the answer to that question — and it involved a surprising collaborator.
Donaldson and his buddies spent 50 hours on their own amidst the desolate terrain of Antarctica. That setup would make for an epic video even without a soundtrack, but the MrBeast contingent happened to run into a legendary musician on its polar voyage. Donaldson met Hans Zimmer while in Antarctica, and the German composer agreed to provide a fitting score for the creator’s latest video.
‘I Survived 50 Hours In Antarctica’ features some of Donaldson’s regulars, including Karl Jacobs and Sapnap, as well as guest star Dream. The Minecraft creator recently revealed his face to his 30 million subscribers, and he is now showing it in videos across YouTube.

After filming a 1 million game of hide-and-seek at the American Dream Mall, Donaldson returned to the North Jersey retail hub on September 4 for the grand opening of MrBeast Burger‘s first brick-and-mortar location.

About three months after it announced a 20 million Series A funding round, Loaded has revealed a dramatic expansion of its business. The talent management company, which works with top gamers and streaming personalities like Myth and Ludwig, has announced the launch of a consulting business and a production wing.
The new division of Loaded is called Open World, and it is designed to serve two primary functions. Brands that are looking to gain a better understanding of the gaming industry (while also increasing their presence within it) can link up with Loaded through Open World Solutions, a consultancy that will build off Loaded's previous brand connections. In a press release, the company highlighted its partnership with footwear retailer Journeys -- which it connected with creator Karl Jacobs -- as an example of the sort of work Open World Solutions will do.

“Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” kicked off San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday as the first panel held at the massive Hall H, and it came with a fantastical trailer and slew of A-list stars.
