For assassination missions, Mirage adopts the 'Black Box' design previously seen in Assassin's Creed Unity and Assassin's Creed Syndicate, where players have to explore environment to find different ways to reach and eliminate their targets. Parkour, close-quarter combat, and stealth are core elements of the gameplay. The game is set principally in Baghdad, which is divided into four districts, but also features Alamut, the fortress headquarters of the Hidden Ones. Gameplay Īssassin's Creed Mirage is an action-adventure stealth game intended to be reminiscent of older Assassin's Creed titles, being more linear and story-focused and reducing the number of role-playing elements present in recent installments of the series. Mirage is set to be released for Amazon Luna, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and Series S on October 12, 2023.

The game has been described as a return to the series' roots, with a bigger focus on linear storytelling and stealth gameplay than more recent installments, which primarily focused on role-playing and open world elements. Principally set in 9th-century Baghdad during the anarchy at Samarra, the game will follow Basim Ibn Ishaq (a character first introduced in Valhalla) and his transition from street thief to fully-fledged member of the Assassin Brotherhood, who fight for peace and liberty, against the Templar Order, who desire peace through control.

It will be the thirteenth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series and the successor to 2020's Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Assassin's Creed Mirage is an upcoming action-adventure game developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux and published by Ubisoft.
