this year.
It was always a risk that by their power to choose what is and is not a deity the developers at Hi-Rez Studios' Titan Forge Games would unleash upon our world a truth which man was not meant to know, but now… now that is a certain thing. Shockingly, this truth has come in a form altogether more horrific than a sanity-shattering cosmic horror.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are gods now, I guess. Fickle and mighty green, shelled masters for our age of nuclear power, televisions, and pizza. Pray—to them I suppose—that they remain benevolent predisposed towards humanity.
Continuing what appears to be a long-term partnership with Nickelodeon, Smite's new battle includes skins of Leonardo, Donatello, Rafael, and Michelangelo for other deities. Leonardo is a skin for Osiris, Donatello for Sun Wukong, Raphael for Loki, and Michelangelo upon a Skateboard is Mercury. There are two skins for each turtle, one with a pseudo-realistic modern look and another prestige-track "Radical" skin with a simplified cartoon color palette.
The current Smite battle is the Necropolis , though I'm sure that the Turtles will make themselves known when the time is right. When the stars are right.
"Will Turtle Power overcome Divine Power?," asks Hi-Rez's official press release. I shudder to think at the answer.
