Smite update 10.68 (v5.9) patch notes for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are now available. According to the official Smite 10.68 patch notes, the new update comes with new god skins and various other improvements. Smite patch 10.68 also addressed an issue where the UI would replay the “lock in ” animation for all locked in players each time a player locked in a God.

Previously, a major update was released with a new Slavic god – Chernobog. However, the update size was around 20GB in consoles. According to the game developers, they needed to do a major technical reorganization of some of the game files to support future growth. Check out more details below.
