SMITE 2 is getting ready to finally enter it's free to play open beta and they recently had a big patch which added the returning Assault game mode, more SMITE 1 gods including Geb, Mulan, Ullr and Agni and a brand new updated Conquest map.
Today we get one final update before the big launch and it includes the new Joust game mode and the newest character to join the roster, Aladdin. Aladdin brings some game changing elements to the game and some abilities that weren't possible in the original SMITE. For starters he has a brand new movement ability with the ability to wall run and the idea behind his ultimate was basically "1v1 me bro" as he throws his genie lantern and traps himself and an enemy inside the lantern to have a 1v1 face off with an opponent.
Also available today is the new Joust map with an Arthurian theme which looks amazing. Joust is a smaller 3v3 game mode with a single lane and a very small side jungle. The objective remains the same as you need to take down your opponents single tower, Phoenix and then their Titan for the win.
SMITE 2 enters an open free to play beta tomorrow where everyone will be able to download and play the game for free without the need of an access key or by buying one of the Founder's packs.
