The Smite World Championship (SWC) is the annual world championship for the multiplayer online battle arena video game Smite. From January 9–11, 2015 Hi-Rez Studios hosted the first Smite World Championship. Teams from North America, South America, Europe and China travelled to Atlanta, Georgia for the tournament. The US$2.6 million prize pool for the tournament was at the time the third-highest in eSports, behind the third and fourth iterations of Dota 2's The International and just slightly ahead of the League of Legends World Championships. One of the North American teams, COGnitive Prime, took home the first place prize of $1.3 million.

From January 9–11, 2015 Hi-Rez Studios hosted the first Smite World Championship. Teams from North America, South America, Europe and China travelled to Atlanta, Georgia for the tournament. The US$2.6 million prize pool for the tournament was at the time the third-highest in eSports, behind the third and fourth iterations of Dota 2's The International and just slightly ahead of the League of Legends World Championships. One of the North American teams, COGnitive Prime, took home the first place prize of $1.3 million. The 2016 iteration was held from January 7–10, 2016, and featured tournaments for both the PC and Xbox One versions of the game. The event was streamed on Twitch on the Smite Game TV account.
