    Free-to-play Xbox One MOBA Smite has picked up another rather large patch that brings a ton of stuff to look forward to.

    • Acquisitions and awards notifications are now displayed in the End of Match Lobby

    [*]Known Issues
    • We have temporarily turned off the spectating mode to address technical issues.


    In addition to all of the above, there's a new god to look forward to in Sol. As you could guess, this god is based around fiery solar powers like Stellar Burst and Supernova. There are also a ton of new skins, emotes, and voice packs, all of which you can check out in the full patch notes at the link below.
