It’s Not Over Aurora Gaming
Following the release of their Dota 2 roster, we can expect Aurora Gaming to announce their upcoming Dota 2 roster for 2025 season as they stated they will remain in the competitive Dota 2 scene.
Many fans are speculating Aurora might be signing the Into The Breach roster that was recently released to the Esports org’s poor financial decision.
If that’s the case, fans have a lot to be excited for at DreamLeague Season 25.
