Learn about our Editorial Process Dota 2 is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video game developed and published by Valve. It's a sequel to the Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos mod Defense of the Ancients. In Dota 2, players are divided into two teams of five heroes and tasked with destroying their opponent's base. The game includes dozens of heroes to choose from, each with unique powers and abilities. It also has a wide array of weapons, items, and potions that can assist players during gameplay. If you're new to Dota 2, or you're looking to improve your skills, these cheat codes might help. These cheats can be used in practice games to test various settings and are approved by Valve. Use of third-party cheats, however, could result in a ban. Dota 2 Cheat Codes Lifewire / Chloe Giroux Dota 2 cheat codes can only be entered while playing a custom game against bots, otherwise known as practice mode. You will need to enable cheats in the lobby settings before you can activate them. To do this, go to the Play menu and select Create Lobby, then check the Enable Cheats box. Once that's done and you're in a match, press Enter to bring up the chat window, type in your cheat code, and press Enter again to activate it.
