Release date
the only thing we know for sure Assassin’s Creed Mirage That’s already behind the current standard two-year release cadence the series was aiming for, but it’s not unreasonable to expect this game in the first half of 2023 based on scope. More on this later. However, until an official announcement is made, this is nothing more than an optimistic guess.
platform
Assassin’s Creed Mirage It can continue to be used as a title that transcends generations. Available on PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
trailer
premiere trailer for Assassin’s Creed Mirage Only CGI, which is very common in the AC franchise in general. Still, many details can be learned and inferred based on what you see.
The first major revelation (unless you’re following the leak) is that Basim assassin’s creed valhalla Become the main character of this work. It opens with him seemingly inducted into the Brotherhood of Assassins in a ritual before cutting into a bright and vibrant marketplace in a new setting in Baghdad.
Basim wanders the marketplace and pickpockets a merchant, only to be noticed and forced to flee. He parkours through the streets and knocks over a stand to delay a viewing guard. But this is young Basim, and he cannot escape. The assassin kills the guards and reaches out to him before he can be captured or killed. This is how he joined the Brotherhood and began training assassins.
The trailer shows him sparring with other assassins at a castle still under construction.
Back in the ritual, Basim silently uses a red-hot knife to remove his left ring finger, as all old assassins have done.
Massive city shots reveal stunning vistas as Basim launches an eagle from his arm. I am looking for One beggar is actually he Basim, who catches the guards off guard and dispatches them with little effort. When his target realizes what’s going on and sends other guards after him, a red smoke grenade explodes, allowing Basim to dispatch guards with swords and daggers.
Another group runs towards him, leading to a chase to another trap, this time an alley where deadly poison gas is released. Rather than running to escape, Basim and his eagle track down the target and one guard attacks it using an exploding bomb. Basim catches up to his target, steals the golden mask, and finishes it off with a hidden blade.
The trailer ends with a scene that hasn’t been featured since the first Assassin’s Creed game, where an assassin uses feathers to collect blood from a target as proof of a kill.
Outside of the trailer, we learn from Ubisoft Forward that the woman narrating the trailer and the assassin who recruited Basim is his mentor named Roshan. She is Persian in her 50s and she escaped slavery before joining the Brotherhood.Because the game is set 20 years before Basim reappears Valhalla, Whatever the main plot of this game, at least we know Basim will survive.
Another big change Assassin’s Creed Mirage It would be the first mainline title without any modern story elements.This makes sense considering the game reportedly started development as a DLC expansion. Valhalla before it became a standalone title. The entire game takes place around 850 AD.
gameplay
Since it’s DLC-based, Assassin’s Creed Mirage It has been noted to be a much more focused and somewhat linear experience compared to the previous three large open-world RPGs. The entire game will probably be in the 15 to 20 hour range, as executive producer Mark Alexis Court said. Interview with IGN“Everything doesn’t have to be a 150 hour RPG. Yes…it’s a small Assassin’s Creed project. It’s conceived [and] Produced to commemorate the 15th anniversary. So with his latest Valhalla engine, stealth, close combat, parkour and the Middle East centered around our roots in Baghdad. ”
The main city of Baghdad is divided into four districts, as well as a small outer area called Alamut, which serves as the assassin’s headquarters.
Stealth and parkour are heavily emphasized as the game moves towards a more classical approach to gameplay.Both of these systems are vastly improved from past iterations thanks to the new engine used it is said that Valhalla. You can also choose the order in which targets are assassinated.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage Several mechanics will also be retired, such as gender options, dialogue selection, and eagle vision. For the last point, however, a method of controlling eagles to scout an area is used. origin When Odyssey i will be back.
Expect a lot of tools as well as a smaller but still diverse arsenal to kill your targets. Based on the trailer, you can expect smoke bombs, mines, throwing knives, and more.
It remains to be seen if combat will remain more action-focused, or will return to the animation-driven, counter-based style of older games.
multiplayer
There was a brief period when the series had a surprisingly fun multiplayer mode, but there have been many entries since one was picked up.When Assassin’s Creed Mirage It’s a much more linear and story-focused experience, so I don’t expect this to be the game the mod returns to.
Download contents
This is a strange one to guess. There was no talk of DLC Assassin’s Creed Miragebut nearly every game in the series has had at least one additional DLC since the second game. Origins, Odyssey, When Valhalla, In particular, it received a number of very extensive DLC expansions. however, Assassin’s Creed Mirage originally conceived that’s why It’s DLC and a more focused experience, so I doubt it’ll get any additional content.
