Critic Reviews
- Smite was a great and fresh take on the MOBA formula back in 2014, and it’s only gotten better thanks to a consistent amount of new gods, themed events and eSports support. So Switch players are getting this game in its most evolved form, with a roster that's pushing three figures and a vast number of modes to unlock and enjoy.
Dom Reseigh-Lincoln · Jan 27, 2019 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - If you are itching for a MOBA to play on your PS4 you can’t go wrong with SMITE. The camera angle and control scheme are a natural fit on console. The power of the PS4 allows the game to be played without much noticeable difference than if it were on a PC. Also the ever growing pantheon of gods provide an interesting if not compelling reason to bring chaos to the battlefield from the comfort of your couch.
Robert Lashley · Jun 06, 2016 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - With good presentation, deceptively easy to pick up combat, and great team mechanics, SMITE will be one to invest time and money into. When you find your favorite character, the best thing to do is simply pay to unlock them. With a seemingly solid commitment to not turn this into a pay-to-win franchise, developer Hi-Rez Studios should be proud of this port.
Paulmichael Contreras · May 31, 2016 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - SMITE feels natural to play on Xbox One with a controller, something I was unsure it would as it’s a very ‘clicky’ experience on PC. With the Xbox One now having its first MOBA, hopefully this will open the doors for others to come to the platform, as long as they are done properly and with care, just like SMITE.
Adam Dileva · Aug 19, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Whether you're looking for casual action combat, or something to master through an investment of thousands of hours, Smite on the Xbox One is a well of frenetic action and smart strategy that runs as deep as you're willing to dive. ...Smite's accessible roster of divine characters, action-based controls and awesome abilities not only make it incredibly easy to be sucked in, but an excellent entry point into a genre that's notoriously uninviting for new players.
Brandin Tyrrel · Aug 19, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - SMITE is a fine game and a great choice for folks who may not spend a lot of time on their PC, but there are a number of shortcomings present in both editions that prevent me from playing it as much as some of its competitors. Still, it's a perfect starting point if you're looking to get into the genre, especially with the intuitive controller scheme.
Chris Carter · Aug 19, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Being free, however, means that there's no reason not to try Smite for yourself. This is the closest anybody has got to making a MOBA that really works on console, and it's exciting to think that there's a huge new audience just now being introduced to this complex, exciting, divisive genre.
Chris Thursten · Aug 19, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - As much as I enjoy playing MOBAs, being able to play it from the comfort of my console with a gamepad is a huge plus. In fact, I'm hoping Smite can show other developers this genre of games can be done on consoles, or at least with a gamepad in mind, so then those who want to waste hours crushing towers and battling other players can do so in a way that's most comfortable to them.
Daniel Perez · Aug 19, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - The high skill cap is still there if you want to reach for it. It may not sit on the tallest, Misty Mountainest peak alongside Dota 2, but Smite's skill ceiling balances the approachability of action RPG combat with deep MOBA strategy. The gods are surprisingly diverse in abilities and playstyles, and though balance is always a moving target, almost every god shows up regularly in online play and is capable of deicide in the right hands.
Wes Fenlon · Apr 11, 2014 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Smite's unique camera angle alone is enough to set it apart from other MOBAs, and developer Hi-Rez didn't stop there. Each map is polished, every God looks and sounds great, and exceptional Match of the Day modes offer plenty of variety. Some late-game balance issues aside, Smite’s divine execution of innovative ideas make it a worthy contender.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
SMITE is the online battleground of the gods. Players choose from a diverse cast of deities and use their unique powers to triumph over the opposition in 5v5 team matches. SMITE is a new take on the MOBA genre; rather than observing from above the action, the game’s third person perspective puts players into the thick of combat. Instead of clicking the mouse to move, players use the familiar WASD keys to move and fight their way through SMITE’s dynamic battlegrounds.
