The other day, the SMITE community was given a plethora of new content and skins in the 2/18/15 patch notes. Thanks to smitedatamining.com we also uncovered a new Ares skin! Care to find out more?

To start off the notes, Hi-Rez announced a new model of Ymir featuring tons of new detail and an enhanced ice-covered mallet as his weapon. This update will go into effect for Ymir’s Standard skin, TwitchYmir, Nuclear Winter, Golden, Legendary, and Diamond skins. In addition to this, we learned that Hercules will be getting a new skin known as La Rocha, a luchador with a giant chair as his weapon. This skin features new taunts in the voice pack along with a giant pinata for his ult. Daisy Despair Scylla was also announced featuring tons of new graphics and effects for her abilities. Included in this patch is the Battle Maiden Bellona recolor along with the Gold, Legendary and Diamond skin for Awilix.

Leading up to the patch notes the official Smite twitter account was leaking these new skins for every x amount of retweets it got. One of the many skins retweeted was the Zeus Xbox skin. Despite not being covered or shown in the patch notes stream, the community has assumed that this skin will be available to all people who play the beta for Smite on Xbox One. The skin features a custom lit up shield green player 1 icon along with a green tint to the lightning bolt.
