After an eternity in beta, Valve’s free-to-play MOBA has finally launched on Steam.
PC gamers can head over to the game’s page and jump in the queue to download the game. The queue has been created to avoid a rush of players that could overload the servers.
Players will be “let in” in batches to download the game and start playing, where Valve can monitor how the system reacts and manages the bulk of players.
“Our thinking is that we want the existing audience to have uninterrupted access during the launch, in addition to bringing new players into Dota 2 in a way that isn’t frustrating,” said Valve. “Simply put, we want to smooth out the traditional launch spike, but at the same time allow anyone to come in and try out Dota 2.”
Head over to Steam and get in the queue for Dota 2.
If you want to test your Dota 2 skills, there’s still time to enter the MyGaming Dota 2 tournament, sponsored by Cooler Master.
