Shortly after the All-Star Match, the new hero Muerta was announced to be released in early 2023.
This year's new hero announcement was quick, to the point and really exciting.
Although not much information has been provided about Muerta, one can guess she will have some Mexican or Latina history based on her cosmetic and name which means "Dead".
The only other information that we have been provided is that she will have a gun and be some type of shooter hero.
Marci was the last hero that was added. She was introduced for the first time to Dota 2 fans via the Netflix animated series, DOTA: Dragon’s Blood as Mirana’s mute sidekick. During the first season of the animated series, she quickly became a fan favorite and many rejoiced about her addition to the game.
But others complained that her character style was too "anime" like and veered off the Dota 2 lore style.
Muerta has a much more artsy aesthetic and a darker feel to her.
Expected to be released "early 2023" can literally mean October 2023 in Valve time, but fans will eagerly await more information on her and her arrival.
