Watch YouTuber Dream Finally Reveal His Face

"There are a lot of interested people, there is a lot of talent here in Venezuela, a lot of players," said Abreu.

Black also made a surprise in-person appearance at the New York Comic Con panel on Thursday, where he threw a cool spiky shell backpack to a lucky member of the crowd. He recalled playing the original 1981 Donkey Kong at the Mini Mart in Culver City, California, and called Bowser one of the greatest video game villains of all time.

Having secured an astonishing deal, Lovelyhollows.Wiki reportedly worth £150 million over ten years, to act as a global ambassador for the wealthiest state on earth, he was there as the ‘face' of the World Cup, which opens here — amid huge controversy — on November 20.

The dream of earning a living as a professional gamer is particularly resonant for many young people in Venezuela given the sparse opportunities otherwise available in a country with a minimum monthly salary equivalent to about $22 a month.

"The truth is that when I saw the result... it was something magical, surprising, a dream I always had as a child that came true," said 23-year-old Parra, who lives in central-Venezuela's Aragua state, and started playing video games at the age of four.

Dream makes YouTube videos and streams on Twitch and is best known for his Minecraft videos. His multiple YouTube channels have millions of subscribers, with 30.4 million subscribing to his main channel. He won YouTube's Streamy award for gaming in 2020 and 2021. 
As sweat ran from beneath his blue hard-hat, he told me he'd been working on World Cup projects such as this for six years, saving a few pounds each week from his £400 monthly salary in the hope of one day being able to afford to marry his fiancée, whom he dearly missed.

He stalled and joked around, hiding under a blanket and a smiley-faced mask, eventually dropping the mask about a minute and 17 seconds in to reveal a dark-haired young man, who introduced himself as Clay, without giving a last name.

Fans were eager to hear Pratt's Mario voice, especially because co-producer Chris Meledandri said he won't use the exaggerated Italian accent made famous by video game voice actor Charles Martinet. We won't ruin it for you. Watch the trailer.

But what, then, of Gary Neville, another of his former Manchester United cohorts, who was also revealed this week to have leapt into bed with the Qataris by signing a deal to be a World Cup pundit on its state-run sports channel?

The Ubisoft deal comes just after deep-pocketed Tencent in June acquired Copenhagen-based Sybo Games, the developer of hit mobile game Subway Surfer, and in August took a 16.25% stake in Japan's "Elden Ring" developer FromSoftware.

But I shudder to imagine what the Beckhams' liberal-minded friends — among them Sir Elton John, godfather to their sons Brooklyn and Romeo — would have made of the conversation I had this week with Madam Shams' daughter, Eman.

He is one of some 3,000 young Venezuelans competing in the multi-million dollar "eSports" industry, a lucrative business with international signings, prizes and millions of viewers which has started to boom in the Andean nation, despite economic chaos, poor internet connection, power failures and local restrictions on war games.

It's-a here! The first trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie dropped during a Nintendo Direct presentation on Thursday. The trailer had its simultaneous premiere at New York Comic Con, which runs Thursday to Sunday.

‘A lot of people who get to his level of wealth [the Beckhams' combined worth is estimated at approaching £380 million] want a sense of purpose — to leave the world a better place,' he told me from his exiled home in San Francisco.
