In my opinion, this entry in the franchise feels lacking. However, it does excel in certain areas. For instance, it saves players from the extensive hours typically required for map completion and avoids adding any downloadable content that unnecessarily complicates the plot. Returning to the franchise's roots was also a smart move.
Despite these positives, the game ultimately falls short in several key areas, including the story, gameplay, and mechanics. The world and its characters are forgettable, and the Order lacks importance. Although the decision to simplify gameplay seemed promising, it resulted in a clunky and chaotic experience that often struggles to operate smoothly.
The most disappointing aspect for me was the complete lack of development regarding the Isu and the modern-day storyline. Their absence reduces the game to a mere embellished pseudo-historical experience with some fantasy elements. Furthermore, the ending is likely to confuse those who haven't played Valhalla, which is frankly ridiculous.
In conclusion, while it presents a decent interpretation of classic Assassin's Creed, it ultimately lacks true depth.

[h1]Assassin's Creed Mirage ★★★★★★★⯨☆☆ [7.5/10] ☀︎[/h1]
[b]Intro[/b]
AC Mirage is refreshingly short, which is a welcome change from the massive scale of some recent entries. Progression is alright, the story is above average, and the setting is cool. Combat was fun and challenging, there is an hardcore mode - not that I usually enjoy that, but I got through it and completed every achievement, including Ubisoft's challenges.
As usual, the landscapes and graphics are gorgeous. This time, the gameplay is more stealth-focused, which I appreciated. Overall, I enjoyed my time in this game more than Valhalla, with tighter pacing and satisfying mechanics.
[b]PROS:[/b]
- Shorter, more focused experience
- Fun and challenging combat
- Stealth-focused gameplay is well implemented
- Gorgeous landscapes and graphics
- Every achievement and Ubisoft challenge can be completed
- Tighter pacing makes it feel way more cohesive than Valhalla
[b]CONS:[/b]
- Shorter length might leave some wanting more
- Progression is okay, but not as deep as Odyssey or Origins
- Hardcore mode elements may not appeal to all players
[b]FINAL VERDICT[/b]
Assassin's Creed Mirage is a refreshing, tightly paced entry in the franchise. The stealth-oriented gameplay, beautiful setting, and achievable progression make it highly enjoyable, especially for those who found Valhalla bloated or overwhelming. A solid entry that I can easily recommend for AC fans.

NO SPOILERS*
This game is good and very reminiscent of old school Assassin's Creed games. There is still that RPG elements that the series has become accustomed to over the past few games but thanks in part to Mirage's smaller scope, those elements are kept tightly leashed. I honestly felt like I was playing Assassin's Creed 1 more than Origins or Odyssey (barf).
Baghdad is BEAUTIFUL and the game world is really fun to explore to immerse yourself in. There is still a bit of that Ubisoft jank but in my opinion, it's not anywhere near as bad as the series is known for...cough cough Unity cough cough. Matter of fact, in the 25-30 hours it took me to beat Mirage, I have only crashed one time and I've experienced zero bugs.
The story is what you should come to expect of AC games in the rpg era...individual areas with their own mini bosses that are only loosely connected but thankfully it's not as disengaging as the story in, say, Valhalla because that "loose connection" is actually the Assasssin's themselves.
That's right folks, this ASSASSINS Creed game has ASSASSINS! We are so back!
One small suggestion I would have is to play Valhalla before Mirage...no spoilers but the main character of Mirage (Basim) plays a rather sizeable roll in Valhalla (which takes place ~20 years after the events of Mirage) and you would appreciate Basim's story in Mirage more if you have the added context of his story in Valhalla first. It is not a hard requirement or anything so if you would rather play the series in the chronological order that it happened then you're able to play Mirage --->Valhalla without issue.
Also, Mirage is most definitely not worth the price it retails for, It is beneficial to remember Mirage started out as a Expansion and thus, is not a full fledged AAA game.,,,but honestly,,,that's a good thing? One thing I absolutely hate about modern AC games is their sheer scale, From the game length to the overbearing map sizes, it is easily my most hated parts of modern AC games. It gets to the point that no matter how much I loved Origins, Odyssey (barf) or Valhalla, after the first ~40 hours I end up hating the games because of the repitiveness of AC games. You can only blow up a crumbly wall with a hidden explosive vase so many times before you lose yourself to insanity.
Thankfully, this game didn't suffer from that at all. Like I mentioned earlier, the scale of Mirage is rather small by Ubisoft standards and after I had beaten the game, I actually wanted more of the game! That is something I haven't felt from this series in a long time!
TL;DR Mirage plays like Assassins Creed 1 and is worth a playthrough if you catch it on sale for ~$30CAD or whatever your currency equivalence is, Mirage doesn't suffer from the mindnumbing problems of past AC games so you will enjoy your time in Baghdad, however short it may be!

This game is short, very clearly was originally meant to be a DLC, and should've stayed that way. It is absolutely not worth full price, but is worth picking up on sale, because after many years, I finally felt like I was playing an Assassin's Creed game again, playing as an assassin. It felt like a blend of the original Assassin's Creed games, with some of the newer RPG elements, a perfect blend.

I was soooo sceptical about this game ..and in the end i decided to buy it for 20 euro ..which even after finish i still dont believe is worthy ..i would say maximum 10 euro but because there are some stunning and beautiful sites ..maybe worthy 20 euro but regarding gameplay and story just about 10...i also kind of hated the game because of what Basim did in Valhalla..while i wont spoil it for you i would just say it that his is the new modern one :)...and other lil actions he did in Valhalla that made me hate Basim.
Before the release of this game our '' beloved '' company Ubisoft said with this game we are returning the roots of the franchise ...but when they said this and created so called roots of the franchise i believe they didnt had idea anymore what the roots of the franchise mean ...it depends if you take the roots as AC 1 ..means you can't swim but Basim can swim :D so not a 100% returning to the roots ..if they mean about fighting ..well it felt more like a modern RPG pretty much as previous recent games ...we just had few tools that were gone for a while but you barely use them...and parkour well parkour just isnt like in the roots ..what this even mean regarding parkour ..the fact that you cant climb anymore everywhere ?! ..after 18 h i just couldnt feel back in the roots of franchise but the game is still nice and beautiful to experience despite Basim.
Story is a bit related to AC Valhalla as Mirage was even suppouse to be a dlc for Valhalla but i guess for the same reason we have Freedom Cry we also got this as a separate game ....anyways Mirage is set few years earlier...and we experience the life of Basim before even being an assassin ...you will fight and train to be an assassin and this part is just felt amazing ..you will also understand better why he in UK and what he really seek and what was his beef with Eivor.
Graphics are so stunning and beautiful and perfectly splendind ...on Ultra at least ...the places the ...sites ...everything is just so amazing,also the scenes looks amazing and feel very realistic..almost like never before in the franchise.
In my opinion this game is worthy to be played only if you are a true fan of the franchise and want to play and experience all the games and also to experience the life of Basim before Valhalla....but if you want to experience the real roots of the franchise just go play AC 1 and 2 and the rest before all this RPG era...those are still better ...for this game the '' returning to the roots '' is just a lie ..at least this is how i feel ...but if you feel it otherwise ..just enjoy it and have fun !

6.3/10 Solid effort in parts, but not enough innovation or emotional impact. It's not bad just meh. Not worth full price unless you're a hardcore AC fan craving that old school stealth.

It was an enjoyable game to say the least. I got a good 40 hours on it. The ending is interesting enough but it terms of a finale, it was kinda lackluster. As someone who has played these games from the beginning, I felt they could’ve done more. The gameplay and setting reminded me so much of the original game so that was a nice surprise. The city is full of fun quests and finding all the historical sites. Overall it was a fun play but the story definitely left something to be desired.

This game is weird.
I have about 30 hours but I can't remember anything from it.
The story and the characters are so forgettable it feels like a Netflix movie.
You assassinate the contracts without knowing anything about them.
Also - why does he have super powers?
This game made me try The Witcher 3 for the 1st time.
And I am thankfull for that.
