Hi-Rez Studios today released the Poseidon update for their Action MOBA SMITE. Additionally, the “Ultimate God Pack” has been updated and is now available as single-purchase version, including all playable god characters within the action online PC game SMITE.

The pack was originally promoted as an immediate unlock of the first thirty SMITE gods, but has been significantly enhanced to include all future gods as well. Players purchasing the pack, including those who purchased it previously, will automatically unlock new gods as soon as they are released into the live game environment. SMITE has been seeing new god releases approximately every two to three weeks.

“Obviously, nothing changes for players who enjoy SMITE with the free-to-play model,” says Todd Harris, Hi-Rez Chief Operating Officer. “But some players are sensitive to a perceived time grind with free-to-play titles and we want to give those players a simple alternative.”

Alongside the single-purchase “Ultimate God Pack,” SMITE’s thirty-first god Poseidon was released today. Watch the update video for further details about the new playable god.

There are also new cosmetic skins and additional features as described in the patch notes.

SMITE is currently in Open Beta and can be downloaded and played for free at www.smitegame.com.

The Ultimate God Pack is available from http://www.smitegame.com at a Beta discount price of $29.99, £20.99, €23.99.
