Smite 2: When is it this game coming out?

Exciting times lie ahead for Smite, the third-person hero-themed game from HiRez Studios, as they prepare to unveil their highly anticipated sequel: Smite 2. This sequel promises to revolutionize the Smite experience, bringing heroes from the original 2014 game into the modern gaming landscape with upgraded graphics and refreshed MOBA gameplay. Every aspect of the game, including characters, classes, items, and the core Conquest mode, is undergoing significant changes.

While Smite has been known as the "console MOBA," the developers believe it's essential to evolve with the times, and Smite 2 presents an opportunity to do just that. With a focus on overhauling and improving various aspects of the game, Smite 2 aims to elevate the player experience to new heights.

Get ready, because Smite 2 is set to make its grand debut on July 30, 2024. This highly anticipated release will be preceded by a series of testing phases, including an alpha session held in early May and a limited open beta for players to get a taste of what's to come.

HiRez Studios has officially confirmed the release date on Steam, with multiple listings for July 30. While the exact time of the launch has yet to be announced, players can expect it to be in the early morning hours, similar to previous Smite updates which typically rolled out around soon.

With the release date locked in, anticipation is building for Smite 2 as players eagerly await the next chapter in the beloved franchise. 

With the arrival of Smite 2, fans can expect to encounter up to 50 of the original 130 characters from the roster. While more characters may join in future updates, developers have cautioned that everything else will remain in the first game.
