In a press release today, Hi-Rez has announced the development of SMITE, a free to play, arena based combat game set in the mythological sector of gaming. According to the press release, the game will be a DoTA-style RTS, created on the Unreal 3 engine, and will provide much of the same mechanics in games like League of Legends and Heroes of Newerth (stats, matchmaking, etc).
“At this point we already have a really fun playable version of SMITE and we look forward to sharing additional details about the project in the coming months”
