Who do you play as in Assassin's Creed Mirage? Basim's back, and ready for action. PlatformsĪll the usual console suspects will play host to Mirage when it arrives, as you'll be able to play the game on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. According to reports, the game has already been delayed internally twice and it has been speculated that Mirage's last-gen versions have been causing some development headaches.


Here is everything we know so far about Assassin's Creed Codename Red.There's also a distinct return to relying on gadgets, with appearances from smoke bombs, blow darts, and noise makers all in the Ubisoft Forward gameplay trailer. In the gameplay trailer, we've seen the return of gameplay mechanics like social stealth, which sees Basim blend in with pedestrians to evade detection. Mirage is set to be a homage to the original Assassin's Creed games, with a focus on using parkour to manoeuvre through densely populated cities. With a much heavier focus on social stealth mechanics, picking a fight with a huge group of enemies will no longer be the preferred option. The tighter focus will likely have a huge effect on the moment-to-moment gameplay, too.

However, the world will be far smaller and much more densely populated than the expansive plains of England, Greece, or Egypt. We'll still be able to explore the streets of Baghdad and undertake missions in whichever order we so choose. Instead, Ubisoft is touting Mirage as a return to the more linear style of missions and storytelling. While Assassin's Creed Mirage may be open world once again, it isn't in the same capacity as Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
