A word from Bigpoint

Dota brought a whole new genre for gamers around the world to compete in. Dota 2 is one of the key titles in electronic sports and inspires millions of players to improve their skills by competing in intense tournaments and we are proud to be sponsoring such competitions. Competitive gaming has always been a key focus for Bigpoint and this is why we have been increasingly pushing PvP gameplay and events in our games, notably in Battlestar Galactica Online, Piratestorm and most recently Drakensang Online.
