So ladies and gents, today Smite received a large patch, including balance changes, bug fixes, and most notably the addition of Rome’s mightiest warrior Hercules.
Hercules is a pretty cool guy. He wears lions as shirts, carries a big club, and throws rocks. Literally. Big rocks.
Here’s to hoping that players can perform some…Herculean plays with the new character.
Smite, currently in beta, is a third-person MOBA from High Rez Games, the people who brought you Tribes Ascend. By placing the camera in a third-person view instead of a traditional over-the-top angle seen in the genre, it puts more emphasis on skill shots and action.
You can sign up for Smite over at it’s official website.
Here’s the announcement trailer for the hero:
