These six anime-inspired skins are beautifully designed to capture the essence of each VTuber and truly bring their virtual personas to life. They all come complete with special visual effects plus a unique voice pack recorded by the VShojo talent. Along with cosmetics such as ward skins and global emotes (one even featuring the legendary Zentreya), the skins are available for purchase in the SMITE x VShojo Crossover Event. May the power of Gods and Anime be on your side!

“Being a fan of VShojo myself, I had the amazing opportunity to help give art and design direction on the SMITE x VShojo crossover,“ says SMITE QA Analyst Micaila Breashears. “That was a great experience and many departments at Titan Forge really came together to make this event special. A lot of research went into making the VShojo characters sound and look the best! Plus all of the girls were able to voice their own skins and announcer packs in-game, and were so great to work with every step of the way.”

To celebrate the SMITE x VShojo event, a special Twitch Drop campaign is running for two weeks, from May 16th to May 30th. Tune in to your favorite VShojo streamers to score exclusive VShojo drops and show your support for these content creators! Drops are available on ALL the VShojo streamers’ channels.

Both the profile avatar & the in-match announcer pack can be unlocked this way for each VTubing star: Nyanners, Kson, Silvervale, Apricot, Ironmouse, and Vei. That’s a total of 12 items given away for FREE just for watching! And yes – each announcer pack has been recorded by the corresponding VShojo talent herself. That means your Oishi can hype you up as you dominate the Battleground in style! Just imagine – you’re running it down mid, securing kills with Kson cheering you on! Announcer packs can be used in any match, even when not playing as a VShojo character.

Then from May 31st to June 14th, all SMITE Partners and the VShojo talent channels will be giving away SMITE Viewer Points. And if you miss the chance to nab those FREE rewards, they’ll become available in the SMITE Viewer Store!

With today’s VShojo update, the third and last chapter in the Hope Reborn event has begun, introducing 3 new skins—and 3 more will follow on May 30th. Iconic SMITE goddess Artemis is also receiving a full visual update, giving her a gorgeous new look! Lots of balance changes have been implemented including mode-specific tweaks. For instance, in Duel only, after eliminating your opponent you can now pick up an Orb that empowers you against towers. Come check that out and more in SMITE!
