Valve To Enter Free-To-Play Space With DOTA 2?

With Valve now fully embracing free-to-play titles for digital delivery through Steam, the company has plans to move into that space with a title of its own.
Speaking to French site Barre De Vie, Valve’s PR man Doug Lombardi was asked whether we’ll see a Valve F2P title, to which he responded with a simple “Yes.”
While no further details were spared, speculation is rife that DOTA 2 may be the company’s first F2P effort, given that its community-developed predecessor was also free. There’s also the fact that Valve has been testing the waters with microtransctions as of late, an avenue often used to profit off F2P experiences.
