ESPN have released the official list of players competing in the Apex Legends EXP Pro-Am event, pairing some of gaming’s biggest names like Dr Disrespect and Jessica Chobot with celebrities and athletes.

Apex Legends is one of the biggest battle royale titles in the world, and quickly established itself as a major player in the world of gaming following its huge release back in February.

Now, ESPN are teaming up pro players, internet personalities, athletes and celebrities in teams of three to drop into King’s Canyon in the hopes of becoming an Apex Champion.

The ESPN EXP Apex Legends Pro-Am takes place on Thursday, July 11, just 24 hours after ESPN host their annual ESPY Awards, a night that celebrates the accomplishments of athletes in the United States and beyond.

The competition will feature three rounds of play, with $25,000 donated to the V Foundation for Cancer Research on behalf of the trio that finishes first in the overall competition.

Dr Disrespect will be dropping into King’s Canyon in the ESPN Apex Legends EXP Pro-Am.

A number of well-known gaming personalities, such as Nick ‘Nick EH 30’ Amyoony, TSM’s Colton ‘Viss’ Visser and Coby ‘Dizzy’ Meadows will be holding down the fort in terms of professional players, alongside a number of ESPN hosts who will take to the sticks.

Some popular athletes will also be in attendance, including NFL player Marcus Williams from the New Orleans Saints, X Games gold medalist Ryan Decenzo, WWE Superstar Xavier Woods, and UFC strawweight Tatiana Suarez.
