Dota 2 merch, ahoy! Trading cards, action figure prototype spotted at Valve HQ


Prominent Dota 2 patch analyzer Matt "CyborgMatt" Bailey was gifted a flight in for this weekend's The International tournament, along with a Valve HQ tour to boot. During his roundabout he was shows some interesting things that might get Dota 2 fans hearts' all aflutter. A myriad of items were being organized for what looks to be a Dota 2 merchandise shop at The International. Some of the items available include trading cards, plush and inflatable couriers, and a display action figure (to be made available summer 2013).

The trading cards are shown to be part of a special deal for merch purchasers. A sign reads, "Spend $40 to get a pack of cards. *Guaranteed to contain 1 courier." The sign then has images of three "international" couriers that, I assume, are only acquirable through Valve's trading card game -- each of which is likely usable in-game. If couriers are your thing, the Zonkey (Zebra/Donkey) will come with the inflatable or plush Donkey courier.

Axe, in action figure form, was also available to check out (though not available to touch). His stand reads, "Prototype Shown Coming Summer 2013." CyborgMatt also has a picture of a smaller Nature's Prophet non-moving figure, though if that's related to the Valve merchandise of simply a toy from a friend -- who knows.

Valve's The International Dota 2 tournament starts this weekend,coinciding with PAX Prime. Expect all of the juicy details in a more official manner soon, or check out CyborgMatt's picture feed for a better look right now.

Diablo Fan Art Watch #167: Blizzard’s Latest Batch IV


Welcome friends to the latest installment of the Diablo Fan Art Watch. This week I bring you two pieces of artwork from Blizzard’s latest fan art blog post featuring two pieces by artist Moore, and these pieces of art show off incredible detail and that epic feel to them..

One features Tyrael again fully surrounded by his once incredible looking wings. As well as the other that features a barbarian as he is swinging his weapon towards a kneeled down and dying diablo; the details here too are just as amazing.

Just don't let Waterlings get near puddles, because they'll suck them up and become full-on Water Elementals.

Along with the new creatures, Fire & Water features three new maps, three new Endless mode conversions (co-op and single-player), and a bunch of new traps. Details:

New Levels to Defend - The fight for survival isn't over yet! Battle your way through three exciting new levels in single-player or co-op - Traffic Jammed, Double Decker, and The West Wing.

New Endless Mode Conversions - Think you've mastered Endless Mode? Think again! The Fire & Water booster pack features three new Endless Mode level conversions to hold your ground on - The Library, Double Decker, and The West Wing.

Terrifying New Enemies - Prepare for a whole new challenge when you face off against the harrowing new Fire and Water Elementals!

Exciting New Traps - Add some deadly new defenses to your Spellbook with the Web Spinner, Ceiling Darts, and the Floor Portal!

New Bonus Skull Definition - Can you hold the invading monsters at bay without traps? Prove your mettle by playing exclusively with weapons and you'll add another bonus skull to the pile at the end of each level.

State of Decay Multiplayer Cut, Windows 8 Exclusive Undecided


Rock, Paper, Shotgun (RPS) managed to track down an Undead Labs rep to learn a little more about the changes to State of Decay, formerly known as Class3. For starters, the multiplayer portion that was originally announced has been crapped, so we’ll be dealing with a purely solo playing experience at launch, but there may be some alternatives post-launch the article notes.


“We announced that we would not be able to launch State of Decay with co-op mode,” said the rep. “Since [MMO follow-up] Class4 is the online world version of State of Decay, we’ll be developing the multiplayer goodness, and our hope is to bring some form of co-op mode to State of Decay after launch.”

One thing of concern that the article does bring up is that Microsoft is the publisher for State of Decay, and this could possibly mean that the PC version of the game may be a Windows 8 exclusive title, something that Undead Labs could not confirm nor deny at the moment, but RPS notes that some other Microsoft published titles for the PC are already taking this approach.
