Skip to the end to have a read through the complete list of the Dota Underlords patch notes.

This is the place to be if you want to know everything that has been changed, added, and fixed in the new Dota Underlords update.

Dota Underlords Patch Notes | Highlights

As stated above, this new Dota Underlords update is not yet live. However, Valve has already released its patch notes. It seems as though plenty has been adjusted, fixed, and added to thanks to the new update. Unfortunately, we’re not entirely sure when exactly the new update will go live, but Valve did claim on Twitter that is hopes “to get this out to you in time for the weekend.”

ALSO: Detective Pikachu is the highest-grossing video game movie of all time, according to report

New Additions

A fair number of new additions have been introduced into Dota Underlords thanks to the new patch. This includes the ability to change your equipped items in the new Battle Pass Loadout. A new custom board has been introduced, too: The Path to Sunbreeze custom board will be waiting for you once you install the new update. You’ll find new Loot Round tips and tricks in the Season Info tab now, too.

Gameplay Changes

To put it simply, tonnes of gameplay changes and balance adjustments have taken place thanks to the new update. A big change, however, is that you will no longer see heroes from your previous shop whenever you re-roll the shop. That’s a nice change, for sure. Valve has made changes to Alliances, such as the Scrappy Alliance now taking two units per level instead of three, Hero changes (Lone Druid’s Summon Spirit Bear has had its Mana cost reduced from 100 to 60), and installed a full-on Alliance Item rework (which includes the fact that Alliance items don’t have an inherent Tier and can be found in their own Alliance category), along with plenty of other smaller changes. You can read through all of the changes in the Dota Underlords patch notes below.
