What made Dream delete his face reveal video? YouTuber shares new 3D-printed mask

Dream is one of the most subscribed Minecraft YouTubers with over 31 million subscribers. He made the unexpected announcement in a skit on his channel, in which he candidly revealed that his "views have fallen off."

He then revealed that he had commissioned a new 3D-printed mask. The new mask is described as being made from laser-fused nylon powder and is specifically built to fit his face.

While the YouTuber did not explicitly state the reason behind deleting the face reveal video, one possible explanation could be the negative attention and criticism he received following the reveal. It's plausible that he decided to remove the video due to the online hate or trolling he may have experienced as a result of showing his face.

Some other possibilities could be a desire to take a different direction in terms of content or to maintain privacy. He may have even realized that showing his face was not aligned with his creative vision or personal preferences.

He said:

"I will slowly be deleting all pictures of me online and going back to just being a gamer in a mask. Starting with my MrBeast video and my Face Reveal video, "hi, I'm Dream." I will be walking it back. I will be getting rid of everything other than my new mask."

Regarding his new mask, he added:

"The same company that made the Spider-Man mask, Batman mask, and many other superheroes, made me a mask so that I can be Dream all of the time. Hide my identity, even in public, at McDonalds, or any place I need to go.”
