The developers of Dota 2 teased players by joking about the constant delays of the release of Act 4 of Crownfall, saying that six months isn’t such a long time for a release.

The relevant frame from the comic about Kez was shared by fans on Reddit.

"Six months have passed. Just six months. Come on, man, you got a life sentence. This is still early access. There we go"

Fans believe that this moment in the comic about the new Dota 2 hero was a clear reference to the frequent delays of Act 4 of Crownfall, which was originally expected to launch earlier in the summer. Users appreciated the joke but hope that Valve will stick to their plans and release the final part of Crownfall as announced, on November 8th.

Others expressed concerns about the release of future updates following such teasing from the Dota 2 developers.

As a reminder, Valve recently announced the release date for Act 4 of Crownfall and also released a comic dedicated to the backstory of the new hero, Kez.
