Where will ' Assassin' s Creed Mirage' be set

While all of the information we have on the upcoming Assassin's Creed title is just rumors at the moment, much of this information is expected to be confirmed during the Ubisoft Forward event on Sept. 10, 2022. According to a video by French YouTuber j0nathan (translated by @Mr_Rebs on Twitter), Assassin's Creed Mirage will take place in Baghdad between the years 860 and 870 BCE during the Anarchy in Samarra. Instead of including the classic character customization of previous games, the game will have you play as Basim, a human reincarnation of the Norse god Loki. You'll allegedly start in Basim's youth, working through his life until he get to the Hidden Ones. While the contents of this title were originally expected to be launched as an expansion pack for Valhalla, it will now be a standalone title.Article continues below advertisement YouTuber j0nathan https://t.co/IgrqJfAV7u revealed this information on the new Assassins Creed game

What else has leaked about ' Assassin' s Creed Mirage'

Again, most of these leaks are simply rumors at this time, as Ubisoft doesn't usually comment on the leaks that come out about its upcoming games "as they do a disservice to our development teams and community,” a spokesperson told Bloomberg in February 2022. That being said, even if these are still just rumors, they give players an idea as to what's coming for the popular video game franchise.Article continues below advertisement At this time, Assassin's Creed Mirage will reportedly release sometime in spring 2023, though an exact release date has not been confirmed by any sources. Much of the game will harken back to the gameplay style of the first Assassin's Creed title, meaning there won't be a leveling system or dialogue choices throughout the game. This title is also expected to be smaller than many of its predecessors, as Ubisoft is still working on Assassin's Creed Infinity, a live-service game. Though we have little information on the title at this time, Ubisoft has confirmed that more information on the contents of Assassin's Creed Mirage will be revealed during the Ubisoft Forward livestream on Sept. 10 at 12 p.m. EST.AdvertisementMore from Distractify Experience the World of 'Assassin's Creed: Valhalla' in the New 'Discovery Tour: Viking Age' (EXCLUSIVE) Wait, Was King Alfred From 'Assassin's Creed Valhalla' a Real Person?
