Assassin’s Creed Mirage
Ubisoft finally revealed Assassin’s Creed Mirage after multiple leaks that had already shared most of the details. Mirage will follow Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Basim Ibn Ishaq and it will serve as an origin story for the character. Basim will be much younger in the game, where he will evolve from a thief on the streets of Golden Age Baghdad in 861 to a master assassin. Mirage will offer a modern take on the first Assassin’s Creed game, with a linear action-adventure gameplay experience that focuses on stealthy assassinations and parkour. Mirage will have new parkour moves and weapons to improve stealth attacks including throwing knives, smoke bombs, blow darts, noisemakers, mines, and more. Assassin’s Creed Mirage is set to launch in 2023.
