In the main mode Conquest, there are two teams of five players, both having a base on the corners of the map. Each base has three paths leading to it, which must all be defended in order to halt the approaching enemies. After a very short time, AI-controlled minions start spawning and following all three paths. These minions serve as support for the players, mainly used as cannon fodder for pushing the enemy towers.

All three paths are defended by two towers and a phoenix, which must be destroyed in order to advance to the enemy base and let ally minions through. After a team has pushed through one of more lanes, the enemy titan has to be killed in order to win the game. Between these set paths is a so called jungle, where visibility is a lot lower and several buff camps are located. These jungles can be used to quickly switch lanes and flank enemies. Or help out teammates where needed.

Aside from Conquest, SMITE also has the modes: Arena, which features no lanes; Siege, which features two lanes; Clash, which features two lanes but with a much smaller jungle than Siege; Assault, which features one lane with randomly selected gods; Joust, with one lane but being able to choose a god yourself; and a Match of the Day which switches game type, gods and conditions daily. Aside from this multiplayer modes, there's also the tutorials, a practice mode with other players against bots, and the ability to start custom games. In-game events called adventures mostly feature a new temporary mode. In the past these were Mario-style racing with carts, Capture the Flag, an RPG like PVE mode, and a Corrupted Arena, the Arena game mode but with the map gradually changing during the game.
