Are you ready to play god?
Smite is coming to PS4! The game officially enters Closed Alpha testing on PS4 today, and will begin Closed Beta in early March. Players can opt in now for a chance to receive a free Closed Beta invite in the near future.
Billed as the Battleground of the Gods, Smite features more than 70 playable gods and mythological creatures from eight different pantheons around the world, all battling for domination across six intense game modes.
Created by Hi-Rez Studios in 2013, Smite currently supports a global player community of more than 14 million players, which will grow even larger when the game becomes available on PS4. Smite’s team-based action, third-person controls, and deep roster of playable gods make it an ideal fit for PS4, where it will become the biggest MOBA ever to go from PC to PS4.
Smite always has been and always will be completely free-to-play. Once the Beta begins, PS4 players will have instant access to all of Smite’s game modes, as well as Smite’s five free gods (Ymir, Thor, Neith, Guan Yu, and Ra) and any gods currently available in the free rotation. Additional gods may be unlocked with Favor or Gems, or via special community events.
As Smite makes its way to PS4, the Closed Beta will introduce several new skins for the gods of Smite, each available exclusively through PS4. Odin’s “World’s Collide” skin will serve as the free reward for players who link their PS4 accounts to their Hi-Rez PC accounts. Additionally, Kulkulkan’s “KuKu4” skin serves as the exclusive reward for all PS Plus members.
Finally, Ymir’s “C4codemon” skin can be found in the PS4 Founder’s Pack, which will be available for purchase on PlayStation Store during the Closed Beta period. Aside from “C4codemon” Ymir, the Founder’s Pack also unlocks all present and future gods in Smite, 400 Gems, an Ares “Soldier of Fortune” skin, and a key for instant beta access. The Founder’s Pack will be available at $29.99 USD, however players who would rather join the beta for free can opt-in to receive a free Beta invite here.

That’s great news, I’m having a blast on XBOne… the only problem is the servers, they are a little unstable, I hope they can improve this on the PS4
Thanks for the alpha invite HiRez!
I’m a little upset about the 30fps as I know PS4 is more than capable of 60
Omg, I played smite all the time on the Xbox 1, I’m really excited to play it on the ps4!!!, hope to get a beta key aswell!!!!
Thanks for the alpha invite HiRez!
Played a 4 arena games today… My eyes started to hurt from the whole 30fps lock. I’m sure PS4 can handle 60fps so that’s a little upsetting.
Glad you guys are putting forth an effort to bring it to PS4 though. A bit weird using a controller for smite xD
I’ve been playing Smite since PC beta. This game is going to revolutionize the way moba’s are played.
Can we talk about why when you download alpha it comes up as Street Sandwich? Also have a extra code if anyone wants, add on psn.
Love it so far got my two key.
As someone who isn’t really into MOBAs, I played 160 plus hours of Smite on XB1. PS4 is my main console, though, and I’m super excited to switch over when this comes out! Sol for life!!!
For those who have already purchased all the gods on PC with the original ultimate god pack, will we have to repurchase on PS4 or will the account link suffice?

We’re working with Sony to determine if account copying will be possible.
Warframe did it :D
You can too!!!!
i haz faith in the smite masters ^^
After playing this game on Xbox One for several months I can personally tell everyone who hasn’t had the chance to play this game needs to do so as soon as it is avaliable. I recently switched to PS4 because I needed something new and better then Xbox and I am very exited to see such a great game make its way to the better gaming system!
its a bad idea to split the player base of a moba. i hope they make some some or multiplatform crossplay so that all players can still play with each other regardless of the platform they are playing on. its the same game anyways.
So I got my 2 codes and it says already used lol so now waiting on Hirez support to get back to me.
I have a question. Once i link my PC account to ps4 will i be able to have all my data transferred there as well as getting the ps4 skins? I have the godpack, am level 30 and other stuff you can expect on PC.
how do you link, i need help :(
