The game DotA had come a long way since its beginnings as a mod from Blizzard\u2019s WarCraft III. As of now, its stand-alone sequel DotA 2 is considered as one of the best MOBA games in history alongside its rival League of Legends. The only difference is that DotA 2 is also compatible to PC gaming console<\/a> unlike the latter MOBA game. But since DotA 2 was released in the public in the year 2013, all the heroes that were released came from the original DotA game which kept gamers wondering whether Blizzard will ever release an original hero to the group. But will they?<\/p>\n

Currently, DotA 2 has a total of 111 playable characters all coming from its prequel game. The last hero that was released by the end of 2015 was Arc Warden, and the only hero that hasn\u2019t been release but exists in the prequel is Pit Lord which will take the name Abyssal Underlord when released in DotA 2. Although still in development, once Abyssal Underlord is release then what will Valve\u2019s next step be?<\/p>\n

Well, according to Valve\u2019s Erik Johnson during his interview in IGN back in 2014, he confirmed that DotA 2 will indeed add up new heroes once the Allstars rosters are all released. Yes, people, once Pit Lord or Abyssal Underlord is playable, we\u2019re going to expect new heroes and new gameplay to keep everything more exciting. As Erik had said, the release of characters will be on-going and it will never stop, because they don\u2019t have any plans to create DotA 3 because it doesn\u2019t really make sense. DotA 2 was created to offer everything that DotA couldn\u2019t offer to its players, whether it\u2019s the costumes, the advanced graphics, a more challenging gameplay or new heroes we have never seen before.<\/p>\n

We the most awaited release of Abyssal Underlord, we couldn\u2019t be more excited to what DotA 2, it\u2019s creators and developers, has to offer more to its players. And yes, Valve, we\u2019re waiting to be amaze and surprise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
