The final day of The International 2024 shed light on a new hero that’s coming to Dota 2 in the near future, and fans of the MOBA can’t wait to welcome a new addition to the game’s ever-expanding roster of heroes.
Since it hasn’t been long since Ringmaster was added to Dota 2, the announcement of Kez, the upcoming Dota 2 hero, certainly came as a surprise to many avid fans of the Valve title. However, the release date of the bird warrior doesn’t seem to be that distant.
Who is Kez in Dota 2?
For those unfamiliar with the new Dota 2 hero, Kez is a bird-samurai who has played an active role in the ongoing Crownfall event. He was the elected leader of the Kazurai army who tried to take down Queen Imperia, but ultimately succumbed to her forces.
He is expected to make a return in Crownfall Act 4, and will undoubtedly play a vital role in bringing the saga to a conclusion.
Kez Dota 2 Release Date
As officially confirmed by Valve, Kez will be added to Dota 2 alongside the highly anticipated Crownfall Act 4 update.
The update was originally scheduled to arrive towards the end of September, but the date has since been changed in the game files.
As per recent leaks from data miners, the new release date for Crownfall Act 4 is set for November 1st, while the end date has been changed to December 30th.
If that’s the case, Dota 2 players can expect to see Kez being added to the hero roster on November 1, 2024.
