Players can link theirSmiteaccount toSmite 2via the official website. To do this, you’ll need to visit theofficialSmite 2websiteand click on “Link Accounts”. From there, you will be directed to a page whereby you can log in using the platform you have an existing account on - from Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, or Epic Games. It is worth noting that, unlike the originalSmite,cross-progression will be enabled onSmite 2, so you can link multiple accounts.

The first account you link toshould be your primary account fromSmite, as switching to a new one will essentially mean you are starting over again onSmite 2. For long-term players ofSmite, this would mean missing out on the bonuses you’ve earned for the hours you’ve played andgems you’ve spent.
