Assassin's Creed Mirage, the latest installment in the long-running Assassin's Creed series, transports players to Baghdad and features the character Basim Ibn Ishaq, who fans may recognize from Assassin's Creed Valhalla. The game aims to return to the action-adventure essence that characterized earlier titles in the series, rather than leaning into the RPG elements found in recent releases like Valhalla or Odyssey.
The adjusted release date for Mirage provides a bit of a reprieve in what is shaping up to be an incredibly busy October for gamers. Other notable titles set to launch that month include Detective Pikachu Returns, Forza Motorsport, Alan Wake 2, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, and Super Mario Bros. Wonder. The new release date could provide fans a chance to finish playing other highly anticipated games like Baldur's Gate 3 and Starfield before diving into the thrilling world of Assassin's Creed Mirage.
