Game developer Valve has cancelled its first Dota 2 Major of 2022, an event that was expected to conclude Dota Pro Circuit’s Winter Tour.
As a result of the cancellation, Valve has issued some changes to the Dota Pro Circuit 2021 – 22 season. DPC points usually garnered at the event will now be distributed to the second and third Major of the season. Moreover, the Winter Tour will officially conclude once all regional league tournaments have ended.
Valve cited COVID-19 concerns as the main reason for the cancellation, explaining in a release that new, fast-spreading variants of the virus make hosting a LAN tournament impossible at this time.
