Dota 2 Is Arriving On Linux.
After more than year staying in beta for Windows users, Dota 2 is now available for all & Dota 2 - The Beta Is Over
Valve's Defense Of tower Arts, also known as Dota 2; is sequel to DoTa with improved gameplay,graphics,animation,heroes & customization. All of these for free!
Surprisingly, the under FAQ it is clearly mentioned that DoTa2 is under beta testing for Linux users & it will be available for Linux & Mac users soon.
I am quite sure #-Link-Snipped-# would be equally excited as I am & rest other Linux users.
BTW, Is anyone playing DoTa 2 ? If you didn't got access during beta stage, then need not to worry as it's open for all now. Go download it : Dota 2 on Steam and enter the world online arena battlefield.👍

Sanyam KhuranaWow...!!!
The graphics looks pretty awesome..!!!
At last Linux is also gaining some attention and popularity. 😀 -
Abhishek RawalUpdate :
System Requirements For Dota2 test (Linux):
- Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
- Dual-Core Intel/AMD at 2.8GHz
- 4 GB RAM
- 4 GB HD
- nVidia GeForce 8600/9600 GT, ATI/AMD Radeon HD2600/3600 : OpenGL 2.1
- OpenAL Compatible sound
As, it has OpenGL 2.1 support, I assume intel processors will also be able to run this game. Intel chipset users won't have any trouble of black-screen like in game Team-Fortress 2.
Time to remove Wine, yes sir ! 😁 -
Abhishek RawalDear Linux users,
If you have access to beta version of Dota2, download it & play the game.
If you find any bug or exploit then report to steam : Steam Community :: Group :: Linux User Group
Help Linux grow. 👍 -
Jeffrey ArulrajWell this is gaming revolution in LINUX
If one game comes into Linux I am damn sure it's competitors are about to step things up in a few weeks time
Thank God Linux is going to be populated with Real games in a few months -

Gaming revolution begun since Gabe Newell started to support Ubuntu users & ditched Windows 8 users. We already have huge database of very good games : TF2,L4D2,CoR & now Dota2.ConquerorWell this is gaming revolution in LINUX

No one really cared about other games, all we wanted was dotaw in Linux. -
Abhishek RawalUpdate : The steam database ( #-Link-Snipped-# ) shows that Dota2 is in test client, but it's on main client as been updated 2 hours from now. So, Dota2 is released for Linux, Valve simply didn't announced officially.
This game is highly addictive, I recommend to stay away from it unless you're aiming to stress your brain,eye-balls & wasting your time.
Gabe Newell, You are super-dope! Thanks for dota2 on linux 😍 -
Abhishek RawalFinal Update :
Dota2 is officially released by Valve for Linux & Mac OS X users. For details : #-Link-Snipped-#
That was fastest beta testing by Valve : On 10th July they announced beta testing for Dota2 & 9 days later on 19th July the client has left beta & released! 😁
