Since the team at Titan Forge Gameswon’t be moving all content from the originalSmiteto the sequel, they have introduced Legacy Gems as a means of rewarding long-time players for their commitment to the popular MOBA.

Legacy Gems are the culmination of all the gems you ever consumed (either purchased yourself or earned for free) in the originalSmitegame, sofor every single gem you’ve ever spent inSmite, you will earn a Legacy Gem inSmite 2. They operate in a way that your gems from the first game will cover 50% of your in-game purchases onthe new gods inSmite 2and the fan favorites from the original until you have used them all up.
