SMITE 2 is flipping the script for the popular franchise with a complete rebuild. While all your favorite gods and Goddesses will eventually be ported over from the original game, it’ll take some time. For now, we’ll tell you who is already available.

Gods and goddesses in SMITE 2 fill a variety of roles in your team, particularly in Conquest mode, and team composition is vital to success, so it’s always worth having a handful of characters you feel comfortable playing. If you want to know who’s available, here are all the latest gods and goddesses added to SMITE 2.

It’s been a long time coming, but the SMITE 2 open beta has been officially announced by the Hi-Rez development team. Now, all players who want to try out the game before it officially releases can have a chance to see every new change from the first SMITE.

SMITE 2 has been out in a closed alpha since May, and open closed alpha since Aug. 27, giving players who purchased to play the game in its unfinished state several months to get used to everything. There have been multiple changes to how items work, gods and goddesses, physicals, and gameplay mechanics, alongside monthly updates to reapply player feedback. It’s been a long road, but now everyone has the chance to give it a try for free. Here’s what you need to know about when the open beta for SMITE 2 begins, and how you can join.

Smite 2’s 24/7 closed alpha continues and players are gearing up for a major update, introducing new items, new Gods, and plenty of bug fixes. We’ve got all the details you need in our guide.

The first big update in the Smite 2 closed alpha is expected to go live on Sept. 17, and we’ve broken down all the major points from the notes here.

Smite 2 is out in the wild for its 24/7 closed beta, but the hard work is far from over. We’ve got all the details on Hi Rez Studios’ plans for Smite 2’s future and what they entail in our guide below.

The original Smite had a stacked roster of playable Gods and Goddesses, but Smite 2 only has 23 at launch, although that number is growing. On top of that, many players may notice their favorite game mode is missing. The good news is that all this and more will be addressed in future updates, so keep reading to find out what’s coming.

The MOBA genre has enjoyed a resurgence this year, and one Smite 2 dev says it could be down to the growing popularity of Soulslikes.

Smite 2 began its 24/7 closed alpha on Aug. 27, the same month that Predecessor, a game built from the now defunct Paragon, released its 1.0 version—and Valve revealed Deadlock in arguably the worst-kept secret in gaming.

Smite 2 is the next step for the franchise, and while all the Gods and Goddesses from Smite won’t initially be in the sequel, they’ll come over time—and we’re ranking them as they drop.

At the time of writing, there are 23 Gods and Goddesses available to choose from in Smite 2, but as you’d expect, they don’t all compare. Some are much stronger than others.

Ascension Passes are a new feature in Smite 2 and will be available for every God. If you want to know every earnable reward, we’ve got the guide you need.

Smite 2 was released into a 24/7 closed alpha on Aug. 27, beginning with 23 Gods, but even more are on their way in future updates. As Smite players will be familiar with, earning Worshipers provides rewards, and Ascension Passes are a new way to track what’s up for grabs.

Smite 2 executive producer KillGoon has defended the game’s controversial pricing structure following waves of criticism from players after the launch of the 24/7 alpha.

The 24/7 closed alpha launched on Aug. 27 across all platforms for players who purchased one of Smite 2‘s three Founder Editions, with one of the main bonuses for the purchase being doubling the amount of Legacy Gems received.

Smite 2 Founder’s Edition allows players to get involved with the long-awaited sequel early, but we’re here to see if you can upgrade your chosen edition after purchasing.

Founder’s Editions are designed to reward players who purchase a game early in its testing. The Smite 2 Closed Alpha represents the first chance to test out new features and see the big changes distancing the sequel from its predecessor.

Smite 2 is now available for players with the Founder’s Edition following the launch of the 24/7 closed alpha test. Issues are expected as the game is still in development, and the version mismatch error can cause problems.

While the devs will fix many bugs and errors during development, the Smite 2 version mismatch error is not a bug. Instead, it’s the game’s way of informing you there’s an issue with the version of Smite 2 you are trying to play.
