Key Features
Be a God
Cut through your enemies, encase them in ice, or drown them in a vortex of souls. Assume direct control of your godlike avatar and experience the MOBA genre up close with the game camera directly behind your character.
Choose from a long list of well-known and more obscure gods, each with their own history, special abilities and unique play style.
Tactical Gameplay
Master and use your godlike abilities to fulfill key roles such as damage dealer, tanking, crowd control, and support. Explore the map and defeat NPC enemies for increased gold and buffs that help both you and your allies. Then deny your opponents victory with perfectly-timed stuns and calculated ambushes.
Mythical Setting
Two teams of 5 players fight to slay the opposition's Minotaur on an inferno-themed battlefield. But first they must contend with three flaming Phoenixes plus Cyclops NPC camps and the legendary Fire Giant in the jungle.
Power Up
Within a single match, your god levels from 1 to 20, causing your abilities to gain strength. You can purchase in-game items and consumables to benefit your god and complement your personal play style – whether it's buffing your Magical power, Physical power, Defense or Utility capabilities.
Calculated Strikes
Every attack in SMITE is a skill shot that you control. Ranged attacks are carefully aimed, melee attacks properly positioned, and Area of Effect damage must be ground-targeted. Predict your enemies' movements and hit your mark for maximum effect in fast-paced combat.
Free-to-Play
Everything affecting gameplay in SMITE can be earned simply by playing the game. Players have access to an initial set of playable gods for free, while additional gods are unlocked through gameplay time or more quickly through micro-transactions. Cosmetic skins can be purchased for further customization.
Multiple Ways to Play
Conquest: Traditional MOBA gameplay. Three lanes, minions, towers, phoenixes, and a minotaur boss battle.
Arena: Casual Team Deathmatch. Defeat enemy players to reduce their respawn tickets and win.
Domination: Capture and Hold. In Domination you combat the enemy team to hold three strategic points across the map. Hold multiple points to reduce the enemy ticket counter to zero and win.
Assault: All Random All Middle. Assault is a casual game mode that randomly picks your god for you and features one giant lane rather than three.
Joust: Joust is a 1v1 or 2v2 face-o . Take your opponent head on in a quick one lane match to see who the better player is.
SMITE also features a Practice Mode and Tutorial for an easy introduction to new players.
