Controversial content creator Guy Beahm, widely known as Dr Disrespect, has addressed reports that he promoted a fraudulent preview event for the upcoming PvP hero shooter Highguard. The response comes after a lead developer at the studio behind the game publicly clarified that no official invitation had been extended to the streamer, leading to accusations that Beahm's team had shared fabricated correspondence to boost his content's relevance.
The situation unfolded on Monday, 19 January 2026, when Dr Disrespect shared a graphic on social media implying he had been selected for an exclusive, first-look gameplay session of Highguard—a title developed by industry veterans formerly of the Titanfall and Apex Legends teams. However, the announcement was swiftly met with a rebuttal from the development team, who stated that they were not currently hosting preview events for influencers.
