Hi-Rez has announced that its free-to-play MOBA, SMITE, is now available for Xbox One, via Xbox Live. They have also confirmed that his first eSports tournament for Xbox One will be held in the Major League Gaming World Finals which will take place in New Orleans from 16 to 18 October. In addition to compete to win a prize money of $ 25000 teams will compete for a spot in the MLG Pro League.

Those who link their PC and Xbox One accounts will receive a special skin for Zeus; this one-time account merge option lets players copy select progress and items from their PC account to Xbox One until Aug. 31.

“With over one million participants in our beta, there is clearly an appetite for the right MOBA on console. MOBAs have historically been a PC-only genre, but SMITE’s action oriented gameplay is a great fit with the Xbox One controller. The strong player retention we’ve seen during beta makes us confident that this is just the beginning for console MOBAs and console eSports”, said Todd Harris, co-founder and COO of Hi-Rez Studios.
