The Smite World Championships is happening this weekend and going into it Hi-Rez Studios teased an announcement that was likely going to be Smite 2. Well, before the party got started they did just that with the official reveal trailer for Smite 2.
The debut trailer contains pre-alpha footage for just over a minute. A release date was not announced yet, but they did announce a Closed Alpha coming this Spring.
Here are some of the imrpovements for this sequel:
Players will now feel the impact of combat through tweaks to camera movements and ability animations
Each ability has been rebuilt with stunning visual FX, whether basic attacks or mind-blowing ultimates
A huge modernization of both the tech and look of the UI to improve combat readability
Updated character animations allow for more natural-appearing body movements, without impacting the snappiness of combat
The addition of haptic feedback for the DualSense controller to further enhance the feeling of immersion
Smite 2 will be available on Xbox Series XlS, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. We also assume the Closed Alpha will be available on all platforms.
It has been a long time coming for Smite 2 as the original Smite has been around for 11 years already. Smite is currently available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch. It’s interesting to see that the sequel was not listed for the Switch yet.
