Following multiple mass shootings over the weekend and a public condemnation of "gruesome and violent video games" by President Donald Trump on Monday, ESPN and ABC have opted to pull the broadcast of X Games Apex Legends EXP Invitational that was scheduled this weekend, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. Rod Breslau was the first to report the news on Twitter.

The event has been rescheduled for October.

Apex Legends is a first-person shooter, battle royale game from EA and Respawn Entertainment. It pits teams of three against one another in an ever-shrinking map until one one team survives. The event over the weekend was to be the game's biggest esports event since its launch in February.
