The Dr Disrespect character gained popularity for his chaotic style of play and aggressive – at times rude – commentary.
Last year, Midnight Society terminated Beahm’s role at the company, four years after he was abruptly kicked off streaming platform Twitch, where he had a big following.
In 2022, Beahm and Twitch agreed a settlement, where neither party admitted any wrongdoing.
The reason for his removal then was never made clear – with the Amazon-owned platform only saying it acted whenever users broke the rules.
Last June, a former Twitch employee said the removal was linked to messages sent to a minor.
Beahm responded: “Let me be clear, it was not a criminal case against me and no criminal charges have ever been brought against me.”
He did though apologise to his “community and colleagues” for his actions.
“That’s on me as an adult, a husband and a father… it should have never happened”, he wrote on social media.
He was suspended from YouTube’s partner program and retreated from streaming until September.
In November he signed a deal with video platform Rumble to head its gaming division.
