dota 2 Developer Valve Software announced Thursday (October 27) that they will be giving players an Arcana, a Battle Pass and a month of Dota Plus in celebration of The International 2022 (TI11), this year’s iteration of the game’s annual World Championship tournament.

The free rewards come with The International 2022 Swag Bag, which will be available to all dota 2 Players who are playing or have played at least 10 games during the current Battle Pass season.

It can then continue to be claimed until the end of the season in January 2023.

“Our goal is to capitalize on the excitement of the International Grand Finals and ensure that the days and weeks following the conclusion of the event offer fans the best time to play dota‘ Valve said in the blog post announcing the giveaway.

Players who receive the Swag Bag are free to choose any Arcana they wish to obtain from those available on the dota 2 Store in game. Arcanas are among the rarest cosmetic items in the game, greatly altering a hero’s appearance, animations, particle effects, and more.

The list of Arcanas players available for free includes:

• Slayer’s Fiery Soul (Lina)

• Blades of Voth Domosh (Legion Commander)

• Fractal Horns of the Abyss Within (Terrorblade)

• Pig of the Sunken Galley Arcana (Techies)

• Demon Eater (Shadow Fiend)

• Manifold Paradox (Phantom Assassin)

• Frost Avalanche (Crystal Maiden)

• The Reckoning of the Great Sage (Monkey King)

• Bladeform Legacy (Juggernaut)

• Feast of the Abscession (Pudge)

• The Magus Cipher (Rubick)

• Flockheart’s Gamble (Ogre Magi)

Unfortunately, the Battle Pass-exclusive arcanas for Io, Earthshaker, Wraith King, Queen of Pain, Windranger, Specter, Drow Ranger, and Faceless Void cannot be obtained for free through Swag Bag.

In addition to the free Arcana, players who receive the Swag Bag will also receive a Level 1 2022 Battle Pass, which can be used to earn more in-game rewards like Immortals, Personas, and even the latest Arcanas for Faceless Void and Razor. Players who have already purchased the Battle Pass can redeem the free pass to get 24 Battle Levels.

The story goes on

Last but not least, the Swag Bag also offers players a month’s worth of Dota Plus, a premium in-game subscription service that gives subscribers access to quality of life features and other rewards.

TI11 concludes with its finals weekend on October 29-30 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

Only four teams remain in contention for the coveted Aegis of Champions and the lion’s share of the tournament’s $17.8 million prize pool: Western European powerhouses Team Secret, Tundra Esports and Team Liquid, and last remaining Chinese representative Team Aster.

The penultimate day of TI11 on October 29 begins with the Upper Bracket Finals between Team Secret and Tundra Esports, followed by the Lower Bracket Semifinals between Team Liquid and Team Aster.

A new dota 2 The world champion will then be crowned on October 30, which will begin with the lower bracket finals, followed by the grand finals in a best-of-five format.
