Andre Rebelo, popularly known as Typical Gamer & TG Plays is a Canadian gamer, YouTuber, and streamer with an estimated net worth of $23 million as reported by Techie Gamers as of July 2024.
He first rose to prominence for his GTA V and Fornite content on YouTube, and his streams. Currently, his content usually includes gameplay videos, guides, and how to find Easter eggs hidden in the GTA universe.
Rebelo first ventured into YouTube by registering his channel under the name Typical Gamer on August 24, 2008. Initially, most of his content was centered around gameplay videos with Rockstar Games’ popular video game, Red Dead Redemption, being the first gameplay video he uploaded to the Typical Gamer channel. Eventually, he branched out and made gameplay content featuring some of the most well-known games, like HALO, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Minecraft, and Assassin’s Creed 3.
Rebelo experienced a relatively slow start but did not give up on making content, and with YouTube rolling out its live-streaming feature in 2013, his GTA V live streams quickly became one of the most-watched streams on the platform. SocialBlade reports Rebelo earned his first million subscribers by the end of 2014. Despite his new fame, Rebelo still was not as popular as the other big names of the live-streaming world.
Prior to the release of Epic Games’ battle royale Fortnite, Rebelo was granted early beta access to the game and quickly mastered the nuances and difficult mechanics of the game. Rebelo soon realized his talent for the game and his Fortnite live streams helped him achieve mainstream success and fame thanks to his stellar gameplay. Rebelo was so good at the game that he turned pro and competed in several Fortnite tournaments across America.

Rebelo has managed to earn an impressive $23 million valuation mainly through AdSense revenue from his YouTube channels, brand sponsorships for his live stream as well as his merchandise sales.
Net Worth Spot estimates that the Typical Gamer YouTube channel has an estimated net worth of about $12.33 million on its own and the channel earns an estimated $3.08 million a year, based on the estimate that YouTube channels earn anywhere between $3-$7 per one thousand views. However, these are conservative estimations and Rebelo could earn over $5.55 million a year.
Social Blade reports the Typical Gamer YouTube channel earns anywhere between $12k - $193k per month and anywhere between $145k - $2.3 million per year. Typical Gamer attracts an average of 1.7 million views per day as reported by Techie Gamers, which implies he can earn somewhere around $7 million per year from his main channel’s AdSense revenue.
Apart from this, Rebelo has three other hugely successful YouTube channels that also help him earn a decent amount of money via AdSense revenue and has even earned himself an exclusive streaming contract with the platform.
Given Rebelo has accrued over five billion views across all his YouTube channels, it is no surprise that gaming giants Ubisoft, Wargaming, OnePlus, Electronic Arts, and Google are among the few companies that have sponsored his streams, which would have definitely helped him make a small fortune apart from his AdSense revenue.
Rebelo also has his own line of Typical Gamer merchandise where apart from the regular stuff like hoodies, t-shirts, and accessories, he also sells Blue Light glasses that are known to help reduce the harm your computer screen’s glare can do to your eyes.
He is also collaborating with a mobile game development company based in Berlin, Andre and Stratosphere Games, to design an immersive gaming experience, prioritizing both streamers' and players' enjoyment.
Rebelo has competed in over nine professional Fornite tournaments and has managed to win two events which helped him earn over $106,750 from the said tournaments.
Techie Gamers reports Rebelo and his girlfriend live in a house in Vancouver, Canada which Rebelo purchased for an unknown amount. Apart from this, Rebelo’s YouTube channel has a video titled, MY NEW CAR!!, in which he revealed his brand new 2017 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 Spyder ($260,000), and a Twitter post in which he revealed that he also bought a Tesla Model X ($115,000).
Typical Gamer is recognized for his philanthropic endeavors as well. He's been actively involved in fundraising efforts for several charitable organizations, such as St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Make-A-Wish Foundation, contributing thousands of dollars to support their causes.
