Deadlock gameplay was shown at The International 2024.
During the broadcast of The International 2024, gameplay footage from Deadlock was unexpectedly shown instead of highlights from a Dota 2 match.
According to the organizers, the incident happened completely by accident. None of the commentators paid much attention to it, but many fans suspect that it was done intentionally to promote Valve's new game and create some buzz around the upcoming release.
Some Twitch chat users expressed the opinion that a full announcement of Deadlock will take place at The International 2024, which seems logical and would significantly boost the game's popularity.
The peak online count has already reached 170,000 concurrent users, despite the game being in beta and available only by invitation.
