Which Halloween-themed limited-time event is named on Dota 2's Wikipedia page? The answer is Diretide.
Diretide is Dota 2's Halloween-themed limited-time event. Its name combines “Dire,” one of Dota's two factions, with “tide,” fitting the event's seasonal framing and its connection to the game's distinctive terminology.
The event first appeared in 2012 and returned in later forms, including a major 2013 version. Diretide introduced alternative objectives and rules rather than simply reproducing a normal Dota match. Seasonal events like this gave players a temporary change of pace and often included special rewards or cosmetic content.
The other choices belong to different themes or formats. Frostivus is associated with Christmas and winter festivities, while New Bloom celebrated spring. The Underhollow was a separate limited-time mode connected with Dota 2's broader event history, not the Halloween label used on the game's Wikipedia page.
Diretide is also remembered for the “Diretide” controversy in 2012, when players expected the event to return and Valve responded with a widely discussed update.
