Smite: Arena of the Gods Bestiary

The Divine Third-Person Pantheon MOBA

Smite brought ancient pantheons directly into the competitive esports arena, faithfully translating traditional iconographies and divine abilities into tactical combat mechanics.

Folklore Deep Dive & Analysis

Divine Warfare: Pitting Global Pantheons in Combat

While most MOBAs invent generic fantasy champions, Hi-Rez Studios committed entirely to real-world religious mythology and historical folklore, building playable rosters across Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Chinese, Hindu, Mayan, Polynesian, Slavic, and Yoruba pantheons.

Each god and legendary monster's kit is designed around historical oral traditions: Anubis uses funerary scales and locust swarms; Sun Wukong shapeshifts into 72 earthly forms; Fenrir grows larger as he consumes gods to usher in Ragnarök.

Smite acts as an interactive mythological encyclopedia, introducing hundreds of thousands of competitive gamers to lesser-known global figures like Baba Yaga, Cthulhu, Baron Samedi, and Pele.
