In June 2025, the average online player count for Dota 2 increased by 2,135 compared to may . The average number of players reached 411,123, with a peak online count of 650,259 users. This marks the second consecutive month of positive growth. The increase coincided with several events that impacted community activity.

At the end of the month, balance patch 7.39c was released, and regional qualifiers for The International 2025 and the Esports World Cup 2025 took place. These events boosted interest in the game and attracted additional audiences. However, the peak online count slightly decreased from 657,074 in may to 650,259 in June, which may be attributed to the absence of major tournaments on weekends.

The growth in may was over 15,000 users, coinciding with the release of the major update 7.39 Spring Forward. In contrast, April saw a decline of more than 9,000 players. Two consecutive months of growth may indicate a stabilization of interest in the discipline after fluctuations earlier in the year.
