It’s been one hell of a rollercoaster for Andrew Tate<\/a> after rising in popularity across the internet for his controversial takes. Despite gaining virality, he’s been banned from Facebook, Instagram<\/a>, and even Twitter because of these opinionated remarks before YouTube and TikTok followed suit<\/a> on 22nd August 2022.<\/p>\n

It’s been some time since then, but to no avail has Andrew Tate been reinstated or had these prohibitions lifted. Now, news has surfaced that Electronic Arts (EA) is banning players naming themselves “Andrew Tate” in Apex Legends.<\/p>\n

Is Andrew Tate Banned From Apex Legends Too?<\/h2>\n

It’s been around two weeks since Andrew Tate was completely taken off majorly-influencing social media platforms for his opinionated takes.
