Valve has launched a Beta for DotA TV, the live-streaming platform the the company will use to broadcast this August’s The International tournament to an audience in the millions.
You can check out the current most-viewed DotA2 matches over on the new website, complete with a nifty interface that brings you closer to the action.
“Games are broadcast at up to 1080p at 60 frames per second and feature real-time stats, graphs and match data,” explains Valve. “The Watch section gives you quick access to the most-viewed Dota matches currently being streamed through Steam Broadcasting.”
This year’s International, which has a Mind-bogglingly huge prize pool of over $17,000,000, runs from August 3-8. Last year’s tournament was won by Chinese team Newbee, who defeated Vici Gaming to take home the grand prize. It was watched by over 20 million viewers.
