Jack ‘CouRage’ Dunlop Re-Ups With YouTube Gaming

CouRage, the noted gamer and 100 Thieves co-owner, has re-upped with YouTube, where he first signed an exclusive streaming deal roughly two years ago — one of the first such deals that the platform ever inked.

CouRage, whose real name is Jack Dunlop, will continue to stream on YouTube, where he says he has experienced 134% growth across his two channels since onboarding exclusively in 2019. He currently counts 3.5 million subscribers on his flagship gaming hub, and 782,000 followers on a second channel, which is home to reactions, challenges, and pranks.

Since signing with YouTube two years ago, “I have broken every single record I’ve personally set in my history of livestreaming,” Dunlop said in a statement. “It’s pretty simple for me: there’s no better place on the internet than YouTube to center your content.”

Dunlop, who is immensely brand-friendly, has also collaborated with PepsiCo to launch his own flavor of Mountain Dew Game Fuel, and has appeared in TV commercials for Ruffles and EA.

He is repped by the gamer-focused talent management firm Loaded.
