Smite (stylized as SMITE) is a third person multiplayer online battle arena video game developed and published by Hi-Rez Studios for Microsoft Windows. In Smite, players take on the visage of a mythological god and take part in arena combat, using powers and team tactics against other player-controlled gods and non-player controlled minions.

Players are formed into two teams, with five players to each team. All players begin at opposing sides of a map in the Spawning Pool. Before the players enter their respective lanes, they are granted 1,500 gold to buy starting items. These items consists of special abilities that enhance their gods. There are three continuous 'lanes' running from one side of the map to the other. Each lane is defended by a 'Phoenix' which is accompanied by a pair of extra defensive towers. Phoenixes and towers deal a large amount of damage to any enemies that come too close. The players are also accompanied by 'minions', these minions spawn at the Phoenixes every thirty seconds and run along their lane until they meet opposition and attack immediately. Minions will not only attack players and other minions but towers, Phoenixes and the Minotaur. Defensive positions will prioritize enemy minions over players, allowing players to attack a turret without receiving damage. Once nearby minions die or an opponent arrives to defend the tower, the tower will re-agro to the enemy player. If a game is going badly for a certain team then they can decide to surrender, though this requires a majority of the team to agree.
