Valve ends development on Artifact

Valve is ending all development on Artifact, its Dota 2-based digital card game. The company made the announcement today.

Artifact debuted in November 2018 for PC. The digital card game didn’t manage to sustain an audience. Unlike hits like Hearthstone, Artifact did not launch as a free-to-play game. It cost $20, and players could spend more money on cards.
