Other VShojo Vtubers who will be getting skins through this collab include Nyanners, Silvervale, Kson, Apricot, and Vei. Their skins will be for Serqet, Skadi, Nemesis, Izanami, and Nu Wa, respectively. It’s worth noting thatNyanners has left VShojoalong with Silvervale and Vei, as they let their contracts with the company expire just a few weeks ago.Smiteseems to recognize this with the description of the announcement trailer stating, “Whether they’re rocking with VShojo or pursuing an indie career, you won’t want to miss out on the VShojo Event.”
New skins are certainly warranted for characters like Persephone and Serqet, who have the smallest number of skins out of all the new gods getting VTuber skins in the patch at 7 and 10, respectively. Serqet’s number of skins is pretty small considering the character has been in the game for nearly 9 years at this point. For reference, Janus and Nox, both gods that debuted in the same year as Serqet, have upwards of 15 skins each. The developers do tend to have a preference for giving certain gods more skins over others. It’s well known in the community that any chance Titan Forge gets to add a new skin forone of the bestSmiteArena gods Neithto the game will be taken, so these VShojo skins will likely be a welcome addition to the roster for players who play as these characters.
Smiteis available now for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
