SDCC: Multiverus Director Plans To Keep A Direct Line Of Communication With Players For As Long As Possible
If you’ve been following Warner Brothers’ new platformer fighter Multiversus over the past several months, you’ve probably heard of Tony Huynh, Multiversus’ game director and spokesperson. Through his personal social media channels like Twitter, Huynh has maintained an open and direct line of communication with players, taking feedback, answering questions, and offering updates about the status of the game.

Huynh has taken a wholly different approach however, by making himself the first point of contact for many players. If you have a feature request, a bug to report, a complaint about the balance, or an idea you’d like to see implemented, you can tweet at @Tony_ Huynh on Twitter and you just might get a response.
