Develop is reporting that Blizzard may be getting into the free-to-play market in an upcoming unannounced game.

The site's anonymous source added that the studio behind World of Warcraft is aiming to have games in both business models, subscription-based and freemium.

Blizzard already has spoken about the possibility of adopting the free-to-play model in the future but we still don't have any official confirmation about this rumor.

FFS. Blizzard's dota is not a full game, it's a map for SCII.
You can read about it on the OFFICIAL Blizzard link:

us.battle.net/sc2/en/game/maps-and-mods/mods/dota

Honestly with the rumors, how hard is it to write "blizzard dota" in a search engine.

Their Blizzard Dota is not rly free. You have to purchase Starcraft 2 and download the custom map so you can play it. It's more of a mini game from SC2

Blizzard already has 2 F2P titles - WoW: Starter and Starcraft II Starter. And before anyone says it's not...I can play it. I can not play it without paying. It's Free to play it. :)

I look forward to more if they make'em!

"Upcoming unannounced game"?
They're making Titan, D3, SC2 and WoW Mists. I don't see any room for another game.

.Blizzard is about the profit. So they either plan too tap into too the free too play market and not like the profit margins or like them. It may mean tons of free too play MMOs on the budget Blizzard has too offer.
