Hold onto your controllers, because we've got some truly tough news from the gaming world. Agnes, the internet's favorite Epic Gamer Grandma, has passed away at 78. Her grandson Culsan broke the news on social media, per TMZ, with a touching update that has us all reaching for the tissues. 😢
“She left this world the way she lived in it: surrounded by love,” Culsan wrote, adding that she died holding her daughter’s hand. It's the kind of send-off that feels straight out of a feel-good montage, but real life hits different.
This wasn't entirely out of the blue for those following along. Back in October, Culsan started sharing updates about Agnes's health struggles. Her COPD had taken a serious turn, leading to frequent hospital visits. In one post, he explained the lack of new content: “A lot of you are wondering why she hasn’t been posting; and when she does they’re reposts from older videos. The reason is that her COPD has worsened significantly; and today, we had to call an ambulance.” He noted she was seriously ill and asked for prayers, hoping for a positive update soon.
Agnes wasn't just any grandma—she was a gaming icon who racked up over 2 million followers across platforms with her charm and killer gameplay sessions. In her later years, she became a symbol of joy, proving age is just a number when you've got that easy vibe. Thousands are now pouring out condolences, celebrating the woman who made TikTok a little brighter.
Our hearts go out to her family during this rough patch. Rest easy, Agnes—you leveled up in the best way.
