Smite 2 Is Coming
For anybody who hasn’t heard the huge news, Hi-Rez and Titan Forge announced the follow up to Smite back in January. The new game takes one of the longest running competitive online brawlers and drags it into the future. Greatly enhancing the graphics, reworking game modes and wildly improved performance are all on the cards. While that all sounds great, some fans aren’t desperate about the change. That’s to be expected when the original stands alongside the likes of DOTA2 and League of Legends, with touts a 40 million strong player base.
