SMITE – Beta Sign-Up (Xbox One)

SMITE

SMITE is very cool mythology themed 3rd person MOBA that pits Gods against each other in epic arena based combat.

Perspective is everything in SMITE.  Pitting the likes of Thor, Hercules and Poseidon against each other, the overall goals are similar to DoTA or LoL, but the 3rd person perspective adds a sense of immediacy and spectacle to the proceedings.  Also, the change of viewpoint allows players to sneak up behind other players and smite em hard while they’re not looking!

SMITE may be yet another MOBA, but it’s certainly not just another MOBA.  In fact, this could easily become the 3rd big MOBA, alongside DoTA and League of Legends.  A satisfying 3rd person brawler that offers a great 3rd way to experience the MOBA genre.
