While AC Mirage has been revealed for quite a while already, this was the very first time it was shown to the public. Ubisoft promises that the game is a stealth-focused adventure designed as “an homage to the first Assassin’s Creed games.”
The story revolves around a 17-year-old Basim, a cunning street thief who eventually joins an ancient organization that will change his life forever. Basim was one of the most prominent characters in 2020’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Mirage is set before the events of Valhalla and will tell the origin story of Basim before we eventually encounter him as Eivor.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage will be released on October 12, 2023, for the PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. Pre-orders are now open for those who are interested.
