Playtonic Games Community Manager Outed for Racist Comments

Several tweets from Playtonic’s Community Manager @SteveJmz have resurfaced online and they’re getting some backlash on the internet. The five year old tweets, were unearthed by former World of Warcraft Team Lead Mark Kern. He criticized the community manager and claims they hate “white men and Asians.” The tweets express negative opinions on certain races such as “Imagine being a white man in this industry and just shutting the fuck up” and “Hell yeah love to walk around loads of snotty looking rich twats and Asian tourist”. Playtonic Games and the community manager have yet to make any public comments or response.  The latest title from the publisher Demon Turf: Neon Splash, launched on November 4, 2021.
