Following a brief initial announcement on the Dota 2 Dev forums a while back, the Spring Cleaning 2016 update for Dota 2 has finally been revealed in full. As with 2014's equivalent update, the patch focuses on repairing a number of bug fixes and introducing "quality-of-life" improvements that are typically missed during tournaments or balance updates.

Alongside an extensive list of miscellaneous bug fixes, the update is also adding several more substantial and meaningful improvements. These include showing tower attack range and neutral camp spawn boundaries, new hotkey options to bind specific map locations or change a hero's ability key, expansions to the armory's size and customisation options, and updated mini-map icons to better show the movement direction of enemy heroes. A streamlined settings menu with a more organised layout has also been implemented, making it easier to tweak the game to your liking.

Ahead of the update's full release sometime later this week, be sure to check out the extended list of changes over on the official announcement page. If you want to take a closer look at the changes in the meantime, the Dota 2 Test Client has since been updated with the Spring Cleaning improvements, so go take a look!
