Valve Reveals Two New Heroes Coming to Dota 2

4.3
Valve revealed two new heroes coming to Dota 2 in the game’s next update, “The Dueling Fates.” The official announcement was made during the Dota 2 International tournament.

A short trailer was revealed giving us a brief look at the two heroes. They both look entirely new and are not reminiscent of any heroes from the original Dota. Much of Dota 2’s cast is based off of characters from the first game.

Neither of the heroes have been given names but we do know what their general appearances will be, as well as the weapons, and potential abilities they may use.

The first hero we see in the trailer is a witty armadillo-like creature who carries around a rapier as his weapon of choice. He also rolls around at one point during the trailer so maybe we’ll see one of his abilities utilize that skill. He makes quick work of Bristleback, Monkey King, and Magnus.

We get a much briefer look at the second hero. She’s a pink pixie who seemingly uses some kind of lantern with a little monster minion in it to attack. That’s all we really get to find out from her brief introduction.

If I had to guess I’d say that the first hero we see falls under either the strength or agility categories while the second hero more than likely will be put under intelligence. You can check out the new trailer down below and decide for yourself.

I have seen gameplay of Dota but not my cup of tea - good for those who do like it though.

XboxPosted:

Don't look like a game I would be interested in at all.

TOXICPosted:

Never heard of this, doesn't look too good to me anyways.

MickersPosted:

Looks bloody stupid this game, good for players who are interested in it though.

EchoPosted:

Never actually played Dota 2 going to have to give it a go clearly a good game if it's number 1 most played on Steam.

CraigPosted:

Well it being one of the most popular games on Steam this is hardly surprising. But I cannot stand the game...

ZydrinPosted:

Gotta admit, I have never played Dota 2 and do not plan on it. Heard nothing but good reviews though.

dah Not a fan of the game but it's nice to hear the game is being updated.


I really like the cut and past comment. I am sure you have posted this similar comment on 100 other news posts. Keep it up, you are really adding to the discussion.

Every hero in dota 1 is currently in dota 2 so they are only going to be adding completely new heroes. They have already done one, monkey king.
