The renowned YouTuber PewDiePie is prepared to launch yet another mobile game whose character is made based on his own likeness. Titled PewDiePie's Pixelings, this upcoming game is set to launch on the 15th of November for both Android and iOS. This is the third time PewDiePie has collaborated with developer Outerminds for a mobile title. Prior to this, we had PewDiePie: Legend of the Brofist in 2015 and PewDiePie's Tuber Simulator in 2016. Check out the game’s trailer below:
Pixelings is set in the same universe as Legend of the Brofist, but it is going to be a creature-collecting strategy game instead of a platformer (and a pretty mediocre one at that) like its predecessor. The story begins when PewDiePie comes across an exceptionally smelly sock, which somehow teleports him to a mythical realm called Pixeland. The Pixelings, native inhabitants of this land, are currently being threatened by a mysterious being, so of course it falls to our favorite YouTuber to save the day.
As you can see, PewDiePie's Pixelings doesn’t take itself too seriously, so you can expect the entire game to be filled with memes. The YouTuber has also lent his voice to his in-game avatar as well, which means we’re in for some quirky dialogue throughout the adventure.
The gameplay, meanwhile, has been described by Outerminds as a combination of the core essence of the idle genre and the depth of turn-based combat. At first, PewDiePie will only have the company of his pugs Edgar and Maya, but as you progress, you'll be able to recruit more pixelated creatures to his team and put them in 3v3 turn-based battles. PvP is also a feature here as well, allowing you to compete against other players.
PewDiePie's Pixelings is set to hit both Google Play and the App Store on November 15th with pre-registration already available right now. It’s going to be a free-to-play game with IAPs included.
