What Smite is

The premise, in the publisher's words
Smite is a 2014 free-to-play third-person multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video game developed and published by Hi-Rez Studios for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Amazon Luna. In Smite, players control a god, goddess or other mythological figure and take part in team-based combat, using their abilities and tactics against other player-controlled gods and non-player-controlled minions. In most gamemodes, victory is achieved by slaying the opposing team's titan before losing their own.

It is played from a third person perspective. Its themes are action and fantasy. It supports multiplayer for up to 10 players online. Available modes: Co-operative and Multiplayer. There are 319 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Smite holds a critic score of 78 out of 100. That places it above 59% of the 7,525 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2014 averaged 69, so it scored 9 points above the year average. Player ratings track closely with critics at 73, across 208 votes.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz or Athlon X2 2.7 GHz, 4 GB RAM and Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 30GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Smite launched on 25 March 2014, within three weeks of Dark Souls II, Hearthstone, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls and Titanfall. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 1 year into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Dark Souls II, Hearthstone, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, Titanfall.
