Is MrBeast going to stream a game show?

Olivia Richman Published 02/06/2023

YouTuber Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson is known for his massive giveaways and contests, usually portrayed in over-the-top videos. From recreating his own Squid Games to giving people their hearing back, MrBeast is larger than life, and his videos are even larger. Now, he’s considering bringing his vision over to a streaming service instead.

MrBeast has 156 million subscribers on his main YouTube channel alone. He is one of the largest content creators of our time, known for his wholesome acts and caring nature. Of course, that doesn’t mean MrBeast is without haters or controversy, but he is largely supported. Now, MrBeast is hoping he can attract the same kind of following on a different platform.

On YouTube, MrBeast uploads long and loud videos that outline his entire journey. But he is now wondering if he can showcase his ideas differently. On Twitter, MrBeast told fans to imagine a “10 episode series” that would air on a streaming service instead.

“Imagine a 10-episode series with 10,000 people competing for the largest prize in game show history,” he teased.

Is MrBeast joining Twitch?

MrBeast currently does not have a Twitch account despite being one of the biggest content creators on the internet. His biggest reason? The ads.

“I’m gonna be honest if they up the frequency of the ads, I will literally uninstall Twitch. I straight up will, Twitch is completely unbearable,” he said in an interview with Karl Jacobs.

MrBeast may not be moving to Twitch, but it does seem like MrBeast is contemplating a streaming platform of some sort, whether it’s Twitch, YouTube, Kick, or any other competitors. Any streaming service would be lucky to have such a big influencer, so it will be interesting to see how this unfolds.
