Assassin’s Creed Mirage

The next chapter of the Assassin's Creed franchise arrives with Assassin's Creed Mirage. Players will take on the mantle of Basim Ibn Ishaq as they embark on an adventure in Bagdhad, with the core plot set 20 years before Valhalla. Mirage will see the return of elements of the series' foundations and some of the more beloved features from games such as Origins and Odyssey, with the return of the eagle mechanic. Assassin's Creed Mirage will also be the first game in the franchise that will tell its story entirely in the world of the Assassin, meaning no future modern elements will be in this entry. Additionally, Mirage will be a core single-player experience with a reduced scope, focusing heavily on narrative and gameplay instead of a massive open world.
