Assassin’s Creed Mirage is a 2023 action-adventure stealth game developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux and published by Ubisoft. Set in ninth-century Baghdad during the Islamic Golden Age, the story follows Basim Ibn Ishaq—a street thief drawn into the Hidden Ones—on a journey of vengeance and self-discovery. Designed as a “return to roots,” Mirage strips back RPG mechanics in favor of pure parkour, assassination contracts, and social stealth, delivering a tightly focused campaign of 15–20 hours. :contentReference
“Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s back-to-basics approach is a successful first step in returning to the stealthy style that launched this series. A shorter game with a smaller map, fewer collectibles, smaller scope in combat, and a limited selection of gear to play with – all of which I found refreshing relative to the arguably bloated scale of 100-hour games like Odyssey and Valhalla.”

“Assassin’s Creed Mirage isn’t the triumphant return to glory that I hoped it’d be, but it’s a good first stab.”
