The Dawn of Babylon is here in Smite Season 8

Announced during the Hi-Rez Showcase, Season 8 brings a larger, more strategic map for Smite’s core Conquest mode. The new map is resplendent in Babylonaian architecture — the work of Tiamat reshaping the world. And it features new gameplay mechanics, like base gates and scorpion monsters. Best of all: For the first time ever, this Conquest map will be living – players can expect the map to change quarterly throughout the season.

The other major highlight of Season 8 is a complete revamp of the Starter Item system. Some old favorite items like Death’s Toll and Bluestone Pendant make their return, alongside new items like War Flag. Even better: Each of the 16 new starter items can be upgraded into one of two unique forms once reaching level 20; will your Sands of Time become the Pendulum of Ages, granting more mana and power, or The Alternate Timeline, giving you a second life?

If you’re worried about being overwhelmed by the new map and items, don’t worry: An all-new guided role system helps you learn to play Conquest while you’re playing, and an improved automatic purchasing system ensures you’re buying the right items. We believe that the best time to hop into Smite is right now!
