No more ‘Founders Pack’ requirement
Back in January Hi-Rez Studios releasedSmiteon Switch, but it wasn’t fully-free-to-play.
Just likePaladinsHi-Rez dropped it on the system in a sort of beta form, allowing players to pay for Founders Packs (that would essentially allow access to all content, leaving cosmetics as microtransactions). Now, you may go to the eShop and download it for free without having to pay that premium: an “Ultimate God Pack” is still an option if you want all 100 Gods (characters) and future Gods.
Smiteis currently cross-play enabled for everything but PS4, becauseSony is still being awful about that in 2019. The worst part about this raw deal is that PS4 ownersalsolose out on cross-progression: something Sony execs don’t even bring up when using their “PS4 is the best place to play, there’s plenty of people on the platform” mantra.
So isSmiteeven worth downloading? I think so. The MOBA genre is definitely less exciting in this current climate, butSMITEdoes enough things differently with its new perspective to the point where it’s worth a shot.
