There are only a few video game series which enjoy the same level of fan following and hype as the Assassin’s Creed series. The biggest reason for this is the consistency of the series, as not only do the devs bring us new games at frequent intervals, but most of them are the kind of quality games we look for. Since 2007, the series has featured twelve main games in total, the most recent being 2020’s Valhalla. Main games in the series are set in an open world and played from the third-person perspective. Owing to consistently great performance of the series, fans will be getting yet another epic game in the Assassin’s Creed series by the name of Assassin’s Creed: Mirage. As it happens, we have some exciting new information for you guys today!
Assassin’s Creed: Mirage First Gameplay Leaks
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is set in Baghdad and will show the evolution of Basim a few decades before his appearance in AC: Valhalla. In the first trailer that came out a few months back we saw a young Basim being trained in the ways of the Brotherhood and being taught the basic tenants of the organization. However, it was a story trailer and we didn’t get to see how the gameplay would actually look like. Fortunately, a new very short 2 seconds gameplay shot from the game has been leaked online, which gives us our first look into the mechanics and setting of the game. Have a look below!
As you can see, it is pretty clear that Assassin’s Creed Mirage is a back-to-basics approach for the long-running series, with Ubisoft returning to the stealth-action, narrative-driven roots that defined Altair and Ezio’s earliest adventures. While the latest AC games have been quite successful themselves, they have lacked the franchise defining traits which fans absolutely adored in the first 4 AC games.
Not much can be understood from a 2 second footage of the lead character running but it does give us an idea about the setup and style of the game. Fans were really happy with this leak and said that it finally looks like an Assassin’s Creed game and compared it to AC1, Ezio Collection and AC: Unity. Of course, if this was just gonna be a 2 seconds footage, we’d have rather wanted to see how they handle the parkour/climbing system because that is where the previous few installments of the franchise severely lacked.
Anyways, that’s it for today. If you want to read more about the game’s prices, collectors editions and more, check out this article.
