Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed Mirage, the new installment of the 200 million unit-selling Assassin’s Creed franchise, is now available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Amazon Luna, as well as Windows PC through the Epic Games Store and the Ubisoft Store. The game is rated M for Mature, and its standard edition is available for a price of $50. Players can also play on day one with Ubisoft+ on Xbox, Amazon Luna and PC via Ubisoft Connect.
With development led by Ubisoft Bordeaux, Assassin’s Creed Mirage celebrates the 15th anniversary of the series with a narrative-driven action-adventure experience rejuvenating the cherished parkour, stealth, and assassinations mechanics that have defined the franchise for over fifteen years.
Stepping into the shoes of Basim Ibn Is’haq, a young thief with a mysterious past who joins the Hidden Ones on a quest for answers, players will follow his journey as he transforms into a Master Assassin but also learn the truth about his singular destiny.
Marking the return of the franchise to the Middle East, Assassin’s Creed Mirage takes place in ninth-century Baghdad, one of the most magnificent and important cities of its time at the peak of its Golden Age. Amidst the dense and bustling streets of Abbasid Caliphate’s capital, players will stumble upon grand landmarks but also witness unrest growing, seeding a revolution against corruption.
Supported by a dedicated taskforce comprising both Ubisoft employees and external historians, the development team have strived to authentically depict this pivotal moment in history, featuring historical accuracy as well as cultural and religious aspects. Further enhancing immersion, Assassin’s Creed Mirage marks a historic milestone as the first game in the series to be released worldwide with full Arabic localization.
