Turtle Beach Drops Dr Disrespect Amidst Controversy

Following recent allegations surrounding his 2020 Twitch ban, Turtle Beach has severed ties with Dr Disrespect. The gaming accessory company, a long-time sponsor and partner of the streamer, even collaborated on a branded headset.

The controversy reignited after former Twitch employee Cody Conners alleged Dr Disrespect engaged in inappropriate conduct with a minor via Twitch’s Whispers feature. These claims prompted several partners to re-evaluate their relationships with the streamer.

Turtle Beach confirmed to IGN the termination of their partnership, ending a multi-year deal initiated in 2020. The Dr Disrespect-themed merchandise has also been removed from their website.

This isn't Dr Disrespect's only recent setback. Midnight Society, a game studio he co-founded, also ended its association with him following the allegations. While initially presuming his innocence, Midnight Society ultimately decided to part ways.

Dr Disrespect continues to deny the accusations, claiming no wrongdoing and a settled agreement with Twitch in 2020. He's also announced a temporary break from streaming, citing the need for a vacation, potentially extended due to the current situation. His future plans remain unclear.
