Ubisoft brings forward Assassin’s Creed Mirage by a week to October 5

Ubisoft reports that Assassin’s Creed Mirage will be released a week earlier, on October 5. At the end of May, the company was still talking about a release on October 12. The publisher also says that the game has gone gold and is ready for release.

Company does not report why the game has been brought forward and whether this is, for example, because the development work was completed earlier than expected. Assassin’s Creed Mirage is set in eighth-century Baghdad and, in terms of gameplay, should be more similar to the first Assassin’s Creed games than the RPG-like style of the games since Origins. In Mirage, players take on the role of Basim, who was also in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Mirage is set before Valhalla.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage has gone gold and is coming out a week early! 📀

On behalf of the entire team, we can’t wait for you to explore 9th Century Baghdad with Basim.

Your journey now starts on October 5. Save the new date! #AssassinsCreed pic.twitter.com/eWAZttvjIX
