Ubisoft just announced that Assassin’s Creed Mirage has gone gold. and is set to release a week early, on October 5 (the game was scheduled for an October 12 release earlier). Mirage has been designed as a callback to the classic mechanics seen in many of the original entries of the franchise. The game is set in Baghdad two decades before the events of Valhalla and attempts to bring the series back to its stealth roots.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage comes to PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Xbox One on October 12. Those who pre-order the premium Deluxe Edition or Collector’s Case versions of the game can gain access to an exclusive in-game quest titled The Forty Thieves.

Mirage which was supposed to release in August this year has been undergoing some delays for a while and recent reports suggested that the game might even get pushed to 2024. Mirage follows Basim Ibn Ishaq, a master Assassin from Constantinople. “We decided to make Mirage a full game in the following weeks after starting working on it,” said Sarah Beaulieu, during a recent Reddit AMA. “The opportunity of working on the city of Baghdad, and on the character of Basim, was too good to be missed!”
Ubisoft has recently confirmed that Assassin’s Creed Mirage will not have features like a subscription model or upgrades to block ads, but will contain cosmetic packs for purchase. The average completionist's time for an Assassin’s Creed Mirage playthrough is much shorter than Valhalla, which took about 60 hours to finish even for mainline players. Ubisoft has previously said Mirage's version of Baghdad will be closer in size to the version of Paris found in Assassin's Creed Unity, with a completion time of around 25 hours.
