As The International 2025 (TI 2025) comes closer, Valve has brought back the team and talent supporter bundles to Dota 2.
Each bundle features exclusive items created by teams and on-screen talent, including loading screens, stickers, voice lines and more.
For this year, every bundle purchased will see 50% of the revenue go to its creator, while an additional 30% will be contributed to The International’s existing $1.6m (~£1.18m) prize pool.
Although the event will have only four official broadcasts, supporter bundles have been added for selected community livestreams as well to cater to fans globally.
However, in this case, the share will go to the entire group rather than an individual and Valve has chosen Brazilian Portuguese, Filipino, and Ukrainian audiences for 2025.
Valve has noted that fans can browse all the team and talent bundles from the main menu.
Dota 2 The International 2025 Fantasy & Predictions Rewards
Every Dota 2 player will also be able to participate in Fantasy and Predictions during the event, with rewards distributed based on final standings in the global leaderboard.
The devs have also launched Tyrian Regalia in-game, which is a collection of Immortal items designed to represent The International 2025’s theme colour.
This set includes Tyrian Mulctant Pall, Tyrian Lash of the Lizard Kin, Tyrian Phantom Concord, Tyrian Bloodfeather Feast, and Tyrian Iron Surge.
However, keep in mind that there will be no option to purchase or gift these items, as they will only be rewarded to the highest-ranking fans.
In order to ensure that competition remains fair for all in the leaderboards, Valve has also noted that it has banned ‘more than 75,000 win traders, smurfs, and other bad actors’.
The International 2025 will take place from September 4th to 14th, where the 16 best Dota 2 teams will battle across two stages in Barclays Arena, Hamburg to be crowned champion.
