Deadlock’s player numbers are climbing again after the latest major update, and it comes at the perfect moment because Tracklock.gg, the go-to site for builds and stats, just joined the U.GG family.
What Is Deadlock – and Why It Is Getting Hype
If you have not tried it, Valve’s Deadlock is a hybrid that blends fast, third-person hero combat with lane-based MOBA strategy. It is a 6v6 shoot-and-farm game where your team pushes NPC troopers toward the enemy’s “patron” while ducking zip-lines, dropping in via double jumps, and buying upgrades with a floating soul orb.
Recent updates added six new heroes (each revealed via player vote), a moody visual rework, and an immersive new “hideout” hub that replaced menu screens. The result is a ton of players flooding back, even though the game is still invite-only!
From Deadlock’s Breakout to Tracklock’s Rise
When Deadlock first exploded in August 2024, its mix of fast-paced hero combat and 1920s New York-inspired setting quickly turned heads. With the hype, players wanted reliable tools to track stats and builds. That is when Tracklock.gg launched as the first dedicated Deadlock stats and builds site.
When Stats Meet Surge: Tracklock.gg Joins U.GG
As Deadlock’s player base climbed again, the timing could not be better. Tracklock.gg was the first dedicated stats and builds site for players diving into the chaos. Now, it is officially part of U.GG, with its developer Will Seagar and team fully on board to improve tools and build new features for Deadlock players.
What Is Coming for Deadlock Tools
With this momentum, U.GG is now rolling out updates to Tracklock, including:
- Visual upgrades to the site
- U.GG-level stat and build integration
- Continued updates as Deadlock heads toward open beta

What Is Next
Both U.GG and Tracklock believe Deadlock has the potential to become a flagship competitive game. With Valve continuing to drop steady updates and community tools evolving alongside them, it is a great time to be part of the Deadlock scene.
As U.GG put it in their announcement: “We’re thrilled about the future of Deadlock and can’t wait to keep building tools and experiences that support its growing community.”
The Bottom Line
Deadlock is clearly more than just another early-access Valve release. It is a cool new hero shooter with unique vibes, mixed with MOBA strategy and a growing roster of heroes that keep players hooked. And with U.GG now backing Tracklock, the community gets one strong hub for tracking, optimizing, and leveling up in Deadlock’s evolving world.
