MOBA SMITE, Battleground of the Gods, is free and available on all major consoles and PCs, giving you the MOBA experience that gamers expect from games like League of Legends, but in third person. which makes the game incredibly user friendly for the console. Controller capacity inputs make it easy to access the game, and its availability on Switch also means you can take it wherever you go.
The pricing of the game is also very generous, with the ability for players to pay a one-time fee to unlock all current and future gods for you to play. The Free Gods to Play rotate regularly and there is one from each that is accessible to everyone. Everything else that can be purchased in-game with microtransactions is purely cosmetic, with recent additions of battle passes to add even more opportunities to add to the collection of silly and awesome skins.
However, with so many platforms the game is running on, does this game support cross play?
The good news is, yes, SMITE offers cross play on all of their major platforms, including consoles and PCs. The decision is almost certainly to avoid leaving platforms with shortages of players to contend with, while the third-person nature of the game also means any potential advantage PC gamers may have with a keyboard and mouse. is limited to some extent.
If you find that you prefer to play only on your own platform, however, you can turn off cross-play. This is available in UI options in the settings menu. This could be a good option for new players, so that they can improve their game until they feel they are ready to take on players from all platforms, or if they want to join their friends who play on other platforms and play together.
