Valve is actively working on its next game, the multiplayer shooter Deadlock. Although you can play the game only after receiving an invitation, it already has a high online presence, and the project has received a major update.

Here's What We Know

Another character has appeared in the game - Mirage.

However, the most interesting thing is that the Anti-Cheat system has been added. When a user is caught using cheats, players will be given the choice between immediately banning the user and ending the match or turning the cheater into a frog for the rest of the game and then banning him. And if the cheater is found in the middle of the match, the result of the game will not be counted for both players. The system will be available in the game in a few days.

We have also added the ability to create private lobbies to play, for example, 1 on 1, as well as fixed many bugs and added new features for a comfortable game. The full list of changes can be found here.

Deadlock is a 6v6 third-person MOBA shooter. Players control hero characters and accompany NPCs along several lanes to destroy the stationary defences of the enemy team. If the enemy's defences are destroyed, it unlocks their "Patron", a huge magically animated golem that must be defeated to win the match.
