Smite 2 Is Now Free-to-Play

Smite 2's Open Beta Launches with Aladdin and More!

Smite 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the popular MOBA, has officially launched its free-to-play open beta across PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC (via Epic Games Store and Steam), and Steam Deck. This launch coincides with a significant content update.

A year in the making and built using Unreal Engine 5, Smite 2 boasts enhanced visuals and refined combat mechanics. The revamped item shop offers greater flexibility, allowing players to equip items regardless of their chosen god's class. Core gameplay remains true to the original, featuring 5v5 battles and sieges, with players controlling diverse gods from various mythologies.

This open beta introduces a wealth of new content:

  • Aladdin: A brand-new god designed specifically for Smite 2, boasting unique abilities including wall-running and a three-wish revival mechanic. His ultimate involves trapping enemies in a 1v1 duel using his magic lamp.
  • Five New Gods: Joining Aladdin are Geb (Egyptian God of Earth), Mulan (Chinese Ascendant Warrior), Agni (Hindu Pantheon), and Ullr (Norse Pantheon).
  • Return of Joust: The beloved 3v3 mode makes a triumphant return.
  • New Map: An Arthurian-themed map provides a fresh battleground.
  • Conquest and Assault Updates: The classic Conquest map and an alpha version of the Assault mode are also included.
  • God Aspects: Optional enhancements for select gods add strategic depth.

Titan Forge Games' creative director has declared Smite 2 a superior experience to its predecessor in several key aspects. The team expressed gratitude for the feedback received during the closed alpha, promising ambitious new content for 2025.

While available on major platforms, Smite 2 is currently absent from the Nintendo Switch, due to concerns about performance. However, the developer remains open to a potential release on the Nintendo Switch 2. Download Smite 2's open beta today and experience the evolution of the Smite universe!
