Valve Developing Standalone Dota Auto Chess Version

Valve has announced on the Dota 2 blog that they're developing their own standalone version of Dota Auto Chess while still supporting Drodo Studio, the Chinese developers behind the highly popular Dota 2 mod. The Dota 2 developers themselves admit having spent the last six months playing the mod. It would only follow that once Valve developers play and enjoy mods of their games that they would try to reach out to its developers and start a conversation to see whether they can work together.

Dota Underlords from Valve is already quite addictive and they're improving it quickly
