Tiamat, Goddess of the Salt Sea, joins Smite as the 113th god and introduces the new Babylonian Pantheon, available today on Xbox One.

The stone tablets of Babylon describe the beginning of the mortal realm – a place of chaos – until the arrival of Tiamat. She destroyed the chaos and filled the cosmic void with the water of the salt sea. Tiamat is the mother of everything — including the first gods, who rose against her in defiance. From her fury, she spawned monsters to punish the betraying the gods.

Tiamat enters the Smite battleground at the brink of its destruction. She frees the world from Cthulhu’s control and banishes him back to the depths. Yet, her motives are not selfless. This is now her kingdom to rule, recreated to fit her desires. And she is ready to wage war against any that try to stand against her.
