Dota 2 is dropping support for 32-bit systems
Those changes include dropping support for Dota on 32-bit systems, macOS versions below 10.14, support for DirectX 9 in favor of DirectX 11, support for OpenGL in favor of Vulkan, and support for XAudio in favor of SDL Audio.
"Removing these older technologies will let us streamline our development efforts as well as use the newer features of these APIs to provide an even better Dota experience," says Valve's announcement.
It's probably a calculated decision, seeing as Valve has access to a lot of information about what an average gaming rig is via the Steam hardware surveys. Microsoft started dropping 32-bit Windows sales last year, though it still supports the installations that have existed until now. MacOS 10.14, for comparison, released in 2018.
