Assassin's Creed Mirage
2023 · Action / Stealth · PC / Ubisoft Connect
Assassin's Creed Mirage is Ubisoft's attempt to return the series to its stealth-action roots, and it partially succeeds by delivering a focused 20-hour campaign set in a beautifully realized 9th-century Baghdad. The parkour and stealth feel better than they have in years, and the tighter scope is a welcome correction after Valhalla's bloat. But the return to basics also reveals how much the genre has evolved since the early games, and Mirage's systems feel dated compared to modern stealth action competitors.
