Haloween is just around the corner as we're fast approaching October, and Hi-Rez Studios are priming up SMITE for a perfect holiday refresh. Sticking with the spooky season theme, SMITE will be getting its newest goddess as part of the upcoming patch update.

Cliodhna, Queen of the Banshees is set to join the Battleground on Wednesday, 29th September when the newest update goes live. There will of course be a Wednesday patch notes show highlighting the latest changes to the game, including Cliodhna's addition.

The excitement is beggining to build as we near the latest release of a new goddess to the SMITE Battleground, here's everything we know so far.

Cliodhna - SMITE New Goddess

Queen of the Banshees in Irish mythology, Cliodhna is notorious for her ear-piercing scream. The goddess is briefly displayed by SMITE developers in the latest trailer released to their social media outlets.

The video features a man who is approached by the queen, he quickly tries to run away as she morphs into a ghost-like form. She uses some sort of ability to pass through the walls of his house as he tries to run away, hinting that she should have some sort of teleport/dash type of move upon release.

Finally, the trailer ends with Cliodhna letting out her signature shriek before the video cuts out. The Queen of the Banshees appears to fit the spooky October theme, and gamers will certainly be excited to see her on the Battleground.

There's nowhere to run...
There's nowhere to hide...

Cliodhna, Queen of the Banshees, has arrived, and her ear-piercing shriek echoes across the Battleground!
