YouTuber Felix PewDiePie Kjellberg said he would take a break from the video-sharing site in early 2020, saying he was feeling very tired.

I'm taking a break from YouTube next year. I wanted to say this in advance because I made my decision – I am tired. I feel very tired. I don't know if you can say it.
"Just so you know, early next year, I'll be gone for a little while," he said, adding, "I'll explain it to you later, but I wanted to give you an idea." The announcement comes at the end of a video in which Kjellberg discusses YouTube's new anti-harassment policy.

It may not be a complete surprise that he pauses, if only for a little while, given earlier this year (when he married his partner Marzia Bisognin) , he suggested to consider taking a step back. "It would be nice not to have YouTube in my brain for the first time in 10 years," he said at the time.
Kjellberg gave no details on when exactly he plans to take a break, or how long it could be, apart from "early next year" and for a short time.
