This week’s HiRez Bugle is chock full of news for the independent Georgia developer’s games. Not only did Paladins see a patch with the new Champion Terminus, but SMITE also saw a bunch of new skins. The big news though is that the closed beta for Hand of the Gods is now officially open on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4!
Hand of the Gods Console Closed Beta
Earlier this week on Tuesday Hand of the Gods officially entered Closed Beta on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. If you’ve got XBL Gold or PS Plus, you get automatic closed beta access, in-game items, and 5 free core packs to open during the beta.
What is Hand of the Gods? A tactical turn-based card game in the same universe as SMITE, it’s all about making the best deck, and duking it out against another player in battle of strategy and fortitude. More info can be found HERE.
