The Smite mid-season update featuring the Stranger Things Battle Pass is available now on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S!

Enter the Upside Down with the all-new Smite x “Stranger Things” crossover which pairs four fan-favorite characters from “Stranger Things” with a powerful Smite god, Eleven Scylla, Hopper Apollo, The Mind Flayer Sylvanus, and The Demogorgon Bakasura.

Smite - Stranger Things Battle Pass

Instantly unlock Hopper Apollo by purchasing the Battle Pass, or buy the Battle Pass Plus to unlock everything up to The Demogorgon Bakasura. Every Smite player earns rewards just for playing Smite. Begin leveling your Battle Pass on day one and unlock free rewards like the Demogorgon Avatar. That’s not all! After completing the Premium Track, unlock the Prestige Track featuring 60 extra levels of goodies and a special ’80s mall-themed Starcourt Eleven Scylla!

This epic crossover doesn’t stop there! “Stranger Things’” trademark Upside Down has seeped into the classic Arena Map. As you roam around the map, you’ll notice the updated skybox – now a dark, gloomy sky with The Mind Flayer looming over the battleground. You’ll also find fun “Stranger Things” callbacks like Christmas lights on the walls. Be sure to take a closer look to see if you can find any secret messages.
