Ubisoft has announced that the latest instalment in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, is now available. The game is developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux and celebrates the 15th anniversary of the series.
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 learns 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 historian experts, the development team strived to authentically depict this pivotal moment in History, encompassing precise 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.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage players will also be able to learn more about the game’s setting and historical period thanks to the in-game History of Baghdad feature.
