Rogue Company drops Dr Disrespect mentions from the game

Developer First Watch Game and publisher Hi-Rez Studios have cut all references to Dr Disrespect from Rogue Company. 

In a post on the game's official Twitter account, they said that they had pulled all mentions of the streamer following allegations of inappropriate conversations with a minor, which ultimately led to him being dropped from Twitch in 2020. 

Rogue Company previously featured a $40 premium bundle themed around Dr Disrespect, as well as a skin and an Arena map, which have all been removed from the shooter. 

"Hey Rogue Company, we have disabled Dr. Disrespect content previously available on game," the developers wrote on Twitter. 

"We will provide full Rogue Buck refunds to any impacted account this week." 

This follows the studio that Dr Disrespect co-founded – Midnight Society – cutting all ties with the streamer. YouTube has also stopped monetising the personality's channel in the wake of the allegations.
