Smite 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the popular MOBA, has 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 includes a significant content update featuring a roster of new gods and game modes.
This Unreal Engine 5 powered sequel boasts refined visuals and combat mechanics, along with a revamped item shop offering greater flexibility. The core gameplay remains true to its predecessor: players choose from diverse gods across various mythologies to engage in 5v5 battles.
The open beta introduces Aladdin, a brand-new god designed specifically for Smite 2, with unique abilities including wall-running and a three-wish revival mechanic. His ultimate ability involves trapping enemies in a 1v1 duel using his magic lamp.
