Notably, the duo played together on stream on 24th February. The clip of Timmy helping Post set up his stream went viral on social media and many esports personalities and Apex Legends fans reacted to it.
Post Malone stated during the return stream in February that Apex Legends really brought back his passion for gaming. He said, “There was no game that really, like, made me want to play video games. This game [Apex Legends] has really brought back my passion for gaming.”

Post Malone talks about his love for Apex Legends
Post Malone appeared on the NELK Boys’ Full Send podcast which premiered on 9th June and he spoke about Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment’s battle royale Apex Legends and his love for the game. While explaining that he got into the game a year and a half ago, Post said, “Fortnite never stuck out to me because I don’t want fu***** 12-year-olds cranking 90s on me and literally making me fu***** throw my monitor across the room. I would play Warzone, and Call of Duty, I was just never a BR guy because I’m not that good at them. But something about Apex, I just started playing it and I really, really enjoyed it.”
Post Malone said he has streamed thrice on Twitch and that he had so much fun playing with Timmy. With Post playing with Timmy again, fans might actually see the musician stream a bit more often in the coming days.
