PewDiePie's Tuber Simulator is a freemium simulation mobile game developed by Outerminds Inc. and featuring PewDiePie, who voices himself.[1] The game's premise focuses on the player creating online videos for views and subscribers, the former of which they can use to purchase goods that can increase performance.[2]
The game was released on 29 September 2016 on iOS and Android.[3] It became the Apple App Store's top download on its release day and on the following day Kjellberg reported that the app had been downloaded over ten million times.[4] The game experienced server issues during its initial launch.[5]
In 2019, Kjellberg frequently advertised the game in the ending of some of his videos as the most relevant game, which led to it becoming a popular meme in his fanbase.
