Yesterday we showed the Gears of War community some love, today we’re continuing the trend by showing the Smite community that we care about and listen to them. Firstly, for those of you who are unfamiliar with the game, Smite is a third person action multiplayer online battle arena game (or MOBA in short). Players take on the visage of a mythological figure (it could be a god or not) and take part in action-packed arena combat. You use powers and team tactics against other PC and NPC figures.
Our free Smite Xbox One cup will take place every Monday with the first one starting on Monday 28th September, 2015. This cup will be open to any territory, just like all of our other cups and ladders (so not just EU or UK!). The prize allocation is £250 per week, with 1st place taking home £200 and 2nd place £50. We are currently defining the full set of rules and the game mode will be 5v5 conquest - let us know in the comments if you have any specific thoughts on the rules. If you're in the mood to join our admin team for Smite then please send in your application immediately!

Again, we're evaluating which games are popular with our community on an ongoing basis. When you show us there's demand for a specific game we'll introduce it and develop it accordingly, depending on its popularity. If nobody plays in the Smite cup then we'll obviously have to reconsider our position - so please show us that you do and start playing. Register today as there's free money up for grabs!
If you're unfamiliar with Smite then the below introduction video is the perfect beginners guide!
