As the online Battleground of the Gods, featuring over 60 playable deities, SMITE includes a pantheon of cooperative and competitive game modes to play alone or with friends:
- Arena (5v5) – SMITE’s take on Team Deathmatch. Go online, or load up some bots for local or co-op play.
- Conquest (5v5) – Classic MOBA gameplay. Three lanes, minions, towers and a titan boss fight.
- Joust (1v1 to 3v3) – One-lane, head-to-head competition. Quick, brutal and fun.
- Siege (4v4) – Two-lane combat fueled by colossal siege monsters that either team can summon.
- Assault (5v5) – All Gods are picked randomly before duking it out in one giant lane of chaos.
