General
Guan YuAspect of the GeneralThe Battleground continues to evolve with the Open Beta 9 update for SMITE 2, bringing a powerful new god, stylish cosmetics, and strategic changes to Conquest gameplay.
The Saint of War, Guan Yu, charges into SMITE 2 with a hybrid-scaling kit that blends healing, mobility, and sustained damage. His new Aspect of the General, releasing May 9, shifts his playstyle by converting attack speed into intelligence and enhancing his team utility.
A wave of new skins and cosmetics joins the battle, including Miss Senshi Bellona + Prisms, Hive Mother Yemoja, and the adorable Bumble Bee Jing Wei. With additional options like a new ward skin, jump stamp, and the introduction of Classic Announcer Packs, players can fully personalize their divine presence.
Conquest mode pacing is also getting a small tune-up. Leveling will take a bit longer, but players will earn gold faster, allowing for quicker full builds without speeding up power spikes. These changes aim to keep matches balanced while rewarding smart farming and rotations.
There’s a ton of balance and other changes below, so get ready to show off your favorite gods in style, and conquer the Battleground once again.
Note: The following represent the patch notes for Open Beta 9 at the time of publish May 2nd, 2025. Additional notes may be made available prior to release.

The goal of the upcoming XP and Gold changes is to try to realign the pacing of the two systems together while also addressing some of the feedback we received from the community. In summary, players will level slightly slower but gain gold slightly faster. That means reaching level 20 takes a few more minutes, but the time it takes to reach full build has been reduced.
