This December, Danzaburou will shapeshift his way through enemy lines and into SMITE.
A cunning tanuki from the Japanese pantheon, Danzaburou will soon become the next god of SMITE. Adding to the excitement of this trailer announcement, he is the first Hunter of 2020.
In-game, Danzaburou makes good use of gold, as befits a skillful merchant. He can invest his gains for further benefits or do just the opposite: literally throwing away money bags as unconventional weapons.
The tanuki is also a mischievous shapeshifter, and his irresistible saké makes him truly taunting…
This Wednesday, find out all there is to know about Danzaburou during the Update Show on SMITE’s Twitch channel at 3pm ET. All details will then become available in the patchnotes and in our dedicated Closer Look blog post.
