Amid its bustling urban landscape, a conflicted young orphan with a tragic past must navigate the streets to survive.

After an act of deadly retribution, Basim flees Baghdad and joins an ancient organization – The Hidden Ones. As he learns their mysterious rituals and powerful tenets, he will hone his unique abilities, discover his true nature, and come to understand a new Creed – one that will change his fate in ways he never could have imagined.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage puts you in the shoes of Basim, a familiar face for those who played Valhalla. Set in the heart of 9th-century Baghdad, Mirage aims to return the franchise to its stealth roots. Story The story is interesting enough, following the familiar "take down the Order" formula we've seen in many previous entries. It’s serviceable, not groundbreaking but it gets the job done. Unless you’ve played Valhalla, the ending might leave you confused, as it heavily ties into events from that game and its DLCs. I had to watch an explanation video to fully understand it, and to be fair, once you do, it all connects quite well. One standout addition to the immersion is the Arabic dub. It’s a rare sight in AAA games and honestly one of the main reasons I bought the game. For non-Arabic speakers, it’s a great touch. For Arabic speakers, however, the dialogue can feel awkward at times, as if directly translated word-for-word but still, it's a commendable effort and I'm glad it's there. Another big highlight of Mirage is how much interesting history and culture from the Islamic Golden Age and Arabian civilization you get to experience. From the architecture and attire to historical figures and institutions like the House of Wisdom, the game offers a rich cultural backdrop that sets it apart from previous entries. Gameplay Mirage goes all in on stealth, which is a refreshing shift from recent entries. The dense city design of Baghdad provides plenty of opportunities for parkour and sneaky approaches. Combat, however, feels overly simplified, you get only one weapon type and barely any abilities. It’s clear that combat isn’t meant to be the main focus, and honestly, that’s fine given the game’s direction. Graphics & Performance Visually, Mirage is stunning. The world design and atmosphere are excellent, and Baghdad feels alive and beautifully crafted. That said, performance can be a bit rough during cutscenes and in a few crowded areas. Some cutscenes also feel a bit cheap, with occasional janky animations from AC Odyssey days. Completion Time & Final Thoughts It took me about 35 hours to 100% complete the game, and that’s honestly one of Mirage’s biggest strengths. It doesn’t drag on for 100+ hours like the recent titles. The quests are focused, the story doesn’t overstay its welcome, and the smaller world is a blessing in disguise.

- waste of time - promised old school AC vibes and did not deliver - Basim has supper powers apparently - I thought there would be implications in current timeline (there wasn't any) - parkour was the same from any other RPG AC titles - probably worse the AC Rouge
