About Assassin’s Creed Mirage
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is being developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux, the same studio responsible for the successful Wrath of the Druids expansion for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. The game aims to pay homage to the original Assassin’s Creed by focusing on parkour, stealth, and assassinations, bringing back the action-adventure style of the earlier entries in the series before the more expansive RPG-style games like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
Gameplay Preview
Last month, Ubisoft showcased eight minutes of Assassin’s Creed Mirage gameplay, giving players a glimpse of what to expect from the upcoming title.
Release Date and Ubisoft’s Future Plans
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is scheduled to launch on October 12, 2023, for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles. Ubisoft has also shared its future roadmap for the Assassin’s Creed franchise, revealing that the next two flagship games, codenamed Red and Hexe, will be part of the new Infinity franchise hub. This live service initiative was announced in 2021.
Assassin’s Creed Codename Red
The next game in the series, codenamed Red, is being developed by Ubisoft Quebec, the same studio behind Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Red will mark the beginning of what Ubisoft refers to as “period three” in the Assassin’s Creed series. Since its launch in 2007, the franchise has sold over 200 million copies worldwide, making it a highly successful venture for its publisher.
