RamBeau announced on Twitter on March 28 that he is retiring from competitive Apex Legends. The North American player cited a loss of love for the competitive side of the game as the reason for him leaving the esport.
“Got to always do what makes you happy in life, and I’m currently not happy. There have been some unfortunate family matters the last half year and it’s time I help the fam a little more and there are other opportunities I want to pursue in life so I’ll be retiring from comp apex,” RamBeau said.
