Valve upgrades the Battle Pass

News
Published at: 2022-09-14 06:49:00

On the night of September 14, Valve released an update for Dota 2, which made Battle Pass pump easier. The game now has weekly bonuses and new rewards for tasks during the matches.

Battle Pass Changes List:

  • Weekly bonus allows players to earn up to 2,000 points.
  • 200 points are awarded for a win and 100 points for a loss.
  • Points for Turbo games are awarded at 50% of the regular rate.

Valve comment:

On release of the Battle Pass, one theme we've noticed in community feedback is that players don't feel like they're making progress commensurate with the amount of matches that they have been playing. With that in mind, we looked at the data for the 2022 Battle Pass compared to The International 10 Battle Pass to see if the data matched this perception. What we found is that even though the amount of points players can potentially earn is similar between the two Battle Passes, the median amount that has been earned is lower in the 2022 Battle Pass. As a result, a hardcore player will have a similar amount of points, but a more casual player is likely to have fewer points than before.

With this data in hand, we have decided to make some changes to help achieve our goal of making participating in the Battle Pass feel rewarding for all players.

Battle Pass was released on September 9. It adds cosmetic items to the game, and 25% of its sales go to The International 11 prize pool. Now, sales have added $9,369,415 to the prize pool, bringing it to $10,969,415.
