Sunday Comics: Dead Island Sick of waiting for the final version of Valve’s upcoming Dota 2? You can play a totally unique version of the popular strategy game in this ridiculously detailed em>Minecraft map, inspired by League of Legends and chock full of towers, upgrades, shops and other goodies.
The Defense of the Ancients genre seems to be heating up. Last week Heroes of Newerth went free to play. Earlier this week we learned that Valve’s DOTA 2 will be playable at Gamescom and now comes news from League of Legends.
Rumours that Valve is planning on doing more with ultra-popular Warcraft III mode Defense of the Ancients All-Stars – or DotA – feel a lot less rumour-like now. The Half-Life developer recently trademarked “DOTA” for future use.
Oh it’s on. After several months’ worth of pre-season play, Riot Games is ready to kick things into high gear with next week’s launch of League of Legends’ first official competition season, complete with ladders, ranked games and draft mode.
Popular Warcraft III spin-off League of Legends is coming to the Mac this summer. Players will be able to download the game for free once it hits.
