Until this point, the streamer had chosen to stay anonymous – streaming instead with a smiley face mask.
In the video, which racked up more than 10 million views in five hours, Dream admitted that the time was right to reveal his identity.
“After years of being completely faceless online, I finally decided to do a face reveal”, he wrote in the caption.
Dream explained that he had finally decided to reveal his face as his colleague and pal, GeorgeNotFound, was finally moving to United States so he could live with the ‘Dream Team.’
“My goal was just to start doing things,” explained Dream. “Get out, meet creators, say hi to my friends finally. Just get out in the world, be an actual creator, be a person!”
He said he was aware of several attempts to ‘leak’ his appearance and decided that it was best to do it on his own terms.
Writing to fans he said: “Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I appreciate you all more than you could ever know.”
