The developer behind Warcraft 3’s popular Defense of the Ancients: Allstars mod has announced he is now leading a team at Half-Life developer Valve, and hinted that there will be “great news for DotA fans.”
“I finally have all the resources needed to do some very exciting stuff that you guys will love,” says IceFrog. “As I’ve said many times in the past and especially after today’s developments, I am very excited about DotA’s future!”
”My goal and top priority in the future is to solve the surrounding issues that affect the DotA experience in order to allow it to reach new heights,” he says, though it’s unclear whether this will be working on DotA itself or a new game at Valve.
