SMITE World Championship presented by Xbox One

From Jan. 7 to Jan. 10, 2016, teams from North America, Europe, Brazil, Latin America, China, and, for the first time, Oceania (including Australia and New Zealand) will compete for the grand prize and the title of SMITE World Champions at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta, Ga. The 2016 SWC will feature two thrilling tournaments: the SMITE PC World Championship and the SMITE Xbox One Invitational.

Hi-Rez Studios recently revealed it will cap the SMITE PC World Championship prize pool at $1 million in an effort to distribute winnings to a greater share of SMITE players at events throughout the season. The company plans to award well over $2 million in crowd-sourced prizes across the span of this Season, thanks in part to community initiatives like the SMITE 2015 Season Ticket and individual team-branded Treasure Chests.

The SMITE Xbox One Invitational will bring together four top teams from SMITE’s emerging new Xbox One competitive scene, competing for a total prize pool of $150,000.

Starting today, Harris will be speaking about SMITE and eSports as a guest speaker at the Develop Conference in Brighton, England, where he will provide additional information on the 2016 SWC.

Season 2 of SMITE is already well underway on PC. SMITE is currently in open beta on Xbox One, with an official launch slated for later this summer. For the latest developments from SMITE on both platforms as the season advances, please visit www.SmiteGame.com, and follow the game on Facebook and Twitter.

Themed around gods of mythology and offering a third-person camera and more game modes than any other leading game in its genre, the game provides a unique, action-packed experience that puts the player in the thick of the action.
