PewDiePie is taking a break from YouTube after revealing the news in a special announcement on the video-sharing platform.
The vlogger - whose real name is Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg - is currently the biggest star on YouTube with an incredible 102 million subscribers.
In a video he posted on Saturday, the 30-year-old explained: "I think now is as great time as any to announce... I have special announcement to make... I am taking break from YouTube. Next year. I wanted to say it in advance because I made up my mind. I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm feeling very tired."

He added: "Just so you know, early next year I'll be away for a little while. I'll explain that later but I wanted to give heads up."
Responding to his video, one fan said: "Not gonna lie I'm sad you're taking a break, bc you've been part of my daily routine for so many years and for that I want to thank you! You really do deserve a break, I hope you'll come back refreshed and replenished. We'll always be here waiting."
Another said: "PewDiePie just announced that he will be taking a break from YouTube starting next year, for me it is very sad but realizing that the past years have been very tiring for him also mentioning all these f**king cancelling woke b**ches going after him everyday, I can't blame him."
