Smite Introduces Bob Ross As New Sylvanus Skin

With its upcoming 4.8 patch, Hi-rez Studios is bringing the Joy of Ganking to Smite with a new Bob Ross bundle. The bundle unlocks a new Sylvanus skin, transforming him into the beloved painter.

The new skin comes equipped with Bob Ross's signature 'fro, as well as his handy brush and palette combo and an array of paint to finesse with. Bob Ross lets his enemies know that the map is his canvas, with his new attack animations literally painting them into a corner with deadly brushstrokes.

Of course the bundle would not be complete without the happiest little tree Grover. Bob's tree friend is now outfitted with a fresh smile, a handsome moss beard and a happy little cloud on his shoulder. Other items in the bundle include a Bob Ross loading screen and a jump stamp.

The Bob Ross bundle was created in collaboration with Twitch and the Bob Ross estate. The bundle will be released on May 9th for PC gamers, and May 16th for console users. It will be available in-game for 700 Smite gems, or for $9.99 through Twitch Commerce.
