The news was announced on the Twitter page of Ludwig, where he shared a short video. In the video, the purple car Ludwig drived goes up in flames as he moves on to a new red one, symbolizing his switch from Twitch to YouTube. For Ludwig it’s the end of an era, as he’s been active on Twitch as of 2018 and where he grew to become one of the largest creators on the entire platform.
That isn’t to say Ludwig hasn’t got a substantial amount of subscribers on YouTube, as he is currently sitting at over 2 million. Ludwig has often talked about making videos in the past and will often set up his livestreams so they could be uploaded as seperate videos on his YouTube channel later on. Now he’ll be streaming directly to the platform in an exclusive deal.

If the video he’s posted to Twitter is to be believed, Ludwig will stream on YouTube for the first time on November 30th. Ludwig certainly isn’t the first streamer to make the move to YouTube and switch platforms, as other creators such as Courage, TimTheTatman and Valkyrae have done the same and are still doing well.
