Defense of the Ancients game being made by Valve?

Defense of the Ancients is an incredibly popular custom scenario for Warcraft III. It’s so big that entire games have been created based on it. Jon St. John is a voice actor most notably recognized as the titular Duke Nukem. The latter is now claiming that he just returned from doing voice work for the former. Here’s the tweet, see what stands out to you.

Had a great time in Seattle last week recording for DotA. The guys at ValveSoftware are awesome! Going to PAX? Might see you there – Sept3-5

Valve? Keep calm, this actually isn’t odd at all. Valve announced that they had hired DoTA developer Icefrog in order to make a game that would make DoTA players very happy. I’m thinking that a DoTA game would make DoTA players very happy. There have, of course already been a few DoTA style games released in the form of League of Legends and Heroes of Newerth, but this could definitely be the ultimate DoTA game considering the support that Valve puts behind all of its games.

So, who wants it?
