About Dragon Knight Dota 2

According to a Netflix press release, the upcoming fantasy series tells the story of Davion, a renowned Dragon Knight dedicated to wiping the scourge out of the face of the world. Davion becomes entangled in events far larger than he could have ever dreamed after encounters with the great, ancient eldwurm and the noble Princess Mirana on her own hidden mission. Dragon's Blood was developed under the leadership of the screenwriter and producer Ashley Edward Miller, who previously worked on movies such as X-Men: First Class, Thor and Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Animation for the show will be done by Studio MIR, which also made films like The Legend of Korra and Netflix's Voltron: Legendary Defender. In 2013, Valve released Dota 2 as a sequel to Defense of the Ancients, the MOBA mod for Blizzard's Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. It's not as popular as it has been in recent years, but Valve hopes to keep players interested in rolling out hero updates throughout the year instead of bundling them all in one huge release.
