Dr DisRespect Announces Code Red Fortnite Tournament

Guy "Dr DisRespect" Beahm is one of the most popular streamers on the live streaming platform of Twitch where his adventures in battle royale titles routinely bring in tens of thousands of viewers. Dr DisRespect has utilized his popularity in the Twitch and battle royale communities to create the Code Red tournament series where some of the most popular Twitch personalities and players are invited to compete for $20,000. Having already thrown a Code Red tournament for both Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout, Dr DisRespect has announced that the next title to get the Code Red treatment is Fortnite. 

The announcement of Fortnite being the next battle royale title to be at the center of a Code Red tournament was made by Dr DisRespect on his Twitter account on Monday, November 5th.

Some fans of Dr DisRespect were a tad surprised to see the Twitch streamer announce Fortnite to be the next game that a Code Red tournament would feature, as Dr DisRespect has been very vocal of his dislike of Fortnite in the past. 

However, with Fortnite being one of the most popular games in the world currently, evident by its latest live event drawing over three million viewers, it is not surprising to see the content creator decide that having Fortnite be the next Code Red tournament game would be a smart business move. 

As with each previous Code Red tournament, Dr DisRespect will likely be looking to have some of the biggest names in the Fortnite community compete in this week's event that is scheduled to take place on Thursday, November 8th at 1 PM PST in order to draw as many eyes as possible to what is sure to be an adrenaline pumping battle royale experience.
