This edition of the Apex Code Red tournament will still feature a scoring system based on each team’s performance in public games since the organizers were unable to get a custom server to host the tournament.

Check out the full rules of today’s Apex Code Red tournament, its scoring system and prize distribution, and how to watch it.

Teams and brackets

Eight squads of three players each are participating in the tournament. They’ll face each other in a double-elimination bracket, which means a team is only out of the tournament when it loses two matchups.

The most well-known players to participate in today’s Apex Code Red tournament include the host, DrDisrespect, star League of Legend streamers Michael “Imaqtpie” Santana and Marcus “Dyrus” Hill, and Twitch personalities Josh “JoshOG” Beaver and Félix “xQc” Lengyel.

Check out the initial matchups and the full list of players participating in today’s tournament below.
