DOTA: Dragon’s Blood follows the adventures of Davion, who becomes embroiled in events much larger that he expected, from encountering powerful and ancient eldwurms to meeting the noble Princess Mirana.

“Fans will love how we’ve imagined the DOTA 2 universe and woven together an epic, emotional, and adult-oriented story about some of their favorite characters,” said showrunner and executive producer Ashley Edward Miller. “The cinematic animation, acting and music are simply next level and I’m grateful to Valve for supporting our creative ambitions.”

On a side note, I am personally looking forward to the anime because I’m a sucker for the fantasy genre featuring knights and dragons.
