SMITE 2‘s Ix Chel Race to Radiant is in progress, and players can compete until August 18, 2026 by taking Ix Chel to Rank 10.

The event began on July 28 and asks players to compete in matches while building Ix Chel’s mastery. The game’s Steam announcement confirms that the leaderboard rewards will reach well beyond the top spot.

How Ix Chel’s leaderboard rewards are split

Players who finish in the highest ranking groups will receive profile items tied to the event:

Top 100 players: A special Rank 10 Mastery Emblem for their profile.
Top 200 players: Ix Chel’s exclusive Radiant Mastery Badge.
Top 500 players: A Special Tracker that permanently shows their exact Race Rank number.
Every player who reaches Rank 10: A special Badge, regardless of leaderboard position.

Rewards will be distributed on August 19, 2026, one day after the event ends. The challenge follows recent Race to Radiant events, including the run that put Xing Tian in the spotlight, and more gods are expected to join the series.
