Divine Legacy Skins
  • We are elevating the Divine Legacy skins out of the 'Classic' category to better reflect their prestige. These skins aren't just direct ports; they are badges of honor for SMITE 1 veterans. By reclassifying them, we ensure that their in-game value and rarity are properly recognized as distinct from standard Classic content.
  • However, we also believe that content shouldn't be permanently locked behind Limited walls. We’ve heard from many new SMITE 2 players who want to share in this legacy. To answer that call, we will be making these skins available for purchase in the coming weeks. They will be offered at a premium price point—one that allows new players to access these skins while respecting the rarity and commitment of the veterans who earned them originally.
QUALITY OF LIFE


Multiqueue
  • Multiqueue will now allow players to select which modes they specifically want to queue for. Modes that are allowed for Multiqueue are:
    - Conquest
    - Arena
    - Joust
    - Assault

  • To improve matchmaking quality, we are optimizing the queue list for specific regions. This change consolidates the player base into active queues to minimize wait times and ensure matches start reliably.
    - NA/EU : All queues are visible. No queue is marked as recommended.
    - Latam S: Removed Assault. Multiqueue is marked as recommended.
    - OCE: Removed Assault/Arena. Multiqueue is marked as recommended.
    - Japan/Latam N: Removed all queues except Multiqueue. Multiqueue is marked as recommended.
Updated God Screen
  • Reflects Physical or Magical Damage
  • New option to use small icons instead of portraits
Added buttons to the out-of-game Escape Menu to link you to Support and to Report a Bug
  • We noticed some players saying they were having problems finding out how to get support and report bugs, so we wanted to make it easier to do so
  • Also, we are trying to make our support site easier to use. We’re not all the way there yet, but we wanted to say we are aware and working on it.
  • You need to click the chat icon in the bottom right of the screen to start a conversation with an agent. We are trying to have that start opened so it’s easier to notice, but in the short term we added the bright yellow notification at the top of the screen.
  • The agent will try to troubleshoot your problems. Please give it a chance, because it really can help address the vast majority of tickets.
  • If you reach a deadend, you can open a ticket via the chat.
  • Keep in mind: We will contact you about your ticket VIA EMAIL, usually within 48 hours. A lot of people are angry that they “never get a reply” but they don’t check their emails.
  • Our support process isn’t perfect, but hopefully these steps are in the right direction to make the process easier to understand.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
