Fans are thrilled by the surprise from Valve in the finals of The International 2024. Video

The audience at The International 2024 final in Royal Arena was thrilled by the lighting change in the venue, which was synchronized with the in-game day and night cycle, allowing fans to fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the game.

Fans shared their emotions on Reddit, where a video of the event was posted.

The footage shows how the bright red lighting fades with the end of the in-game day in Dota 2, switching to a calmer blue as night falls. Viewers noted how beautiful this looked. Others wondered what would happen with the lighting if Eclipse or Supernova were used in the game, which create day and night effects, respectively.

Fans were particularly interested in Dawnbreaker ultimate, which reveals the entire map, but unfortunately, no players have picked the hero in the final so far.

Earlier, it was reported that Valve updated the main trophy of The International 2024, as space for engraving champions on the Aegis was running out.
