Online megastar Felix Kjellberg, better known as PewDiePie, has partnered with Disney’s Maker Studios to launch a new gaming-focused network on YouTube.

The Swedish creator, who has more than 41 million YouTube subscribers, announced details of Revelmode on the video-sharing platform yesterday.

The channel will feature videos from Kjellberg alongside fellow YouTube personalities such as Kwebbelkop, CinnamonToastKen, EmmaBlackery, Jelly and CutiePieMarzia.

It will focus on creating premium original content about gaming and pop culture, potentially for YouTube Red, the subscription service introduced towards the end of last year.

It will also participate in game development, philanthropy and commercial partnerships, and will develop merchandise for fans and future creators.

Established in 2009, Maker has around 550,000 independent content creators on its books, including PewDiePie, who together bring in a total of 10 billion views per month.
