The Meme Comes True! SMITE Cinematic Trailer Features New God Martichoras, The Manticore King
The Monster Season rolls on in SMITE with Martichoras cinematic trailer.
SMITE continues its Season of Monsters today with the unveiling of a cinematic trailer for Martichoras, The Manticore King being added to the MOBA game. This new trailer follows the previous release of Surtr, The Fire Giant.
Martichoras will fill the role of a hunter, shooting venomous projectiles from his scorpion tail, and his ultimate will be a massive stinger that bursts with poison.
The longtime SMITE meme has finally come to life. The Manticore was teased all the way back in 2016 as an April Fools joke, and players had a hard time letting go of their want for the Manticore to make its way into SMITE.
