Valve finally confirms its next game, Deadlock, with a bare-bones Steam page
Valve confirms Deadlock, a MOBA shooter in early development, on Steam with minimal details.
Valve has finally acknowledged its upcoming multiplayer shooter, Deadlock, by updating its official Steam page. Described as a MOBA shooter, the game is confirmed to be in the early stages of development and is currently in the hands of playtesters. Thousands of people have reportedly played it, leaking screenshots and gameplay footage, although Valve kept silent until now.
The official information about Deadlock is minimal. Access to the game remains exclusive and invite-only, and there is no specified release date or window. The Steam page does feature a 22-second teaser, but it offers little insight into the gameplay or features.
Back in May, YouTuber Tyler McVicker offered a glimpse into the expectations for Deadlock. He suggested that it is intended to be Valve's next significant competitive game, on par with titles like Counter-Strike and Dota. Now that Valve has confirmed the game's existence, more details are expected to emerge soon.
