Valve Allowed to use Dota Name, Blizzard Backpedals

Valve Allowed to use Dota Name, Blizzard Backpedals

Back in February I reported on the legal skirmish between Blizzard and Valve over the use of the name Dota in Valve’s upcoming Dota 2. Well it appears as if the battle is over, and even though Blizzard’s press release says the agreement was mutual, it’s pretty clear Valve came out on top as they’re the ones that get to keep using the name Dota. Blizzard on the other hand has now changed the name of their game from Blizzard Dota to Blizzard All-Stars. I may not be a legal expert, but I’m pretty sure that this all backfired on Blizzard, I mean they are the ones who originally filed and yet they ended up being the ones to change their name while pretty much nothing happened to Valve. Then again, this could all be just a case of, to quote Notch, “lawyers being lawyers.”

It’s an exciting time for the industry: we’re on the cusp of a new generation of consoles, and there’s lots of high profile, triple-A titles scheduled to come out this Fall… but while I’m sure everyone is excited to see more of Assassin’s Creed III, Resident Evil 6, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, there are a handful of lower key, oft-rumored, unannounced, or un-localized games that I’m hoping will make an appearance at this year’s E3 as well.
