Mirage follows Basim, a character introduced in *********’s Creed Valhalla, as he works to uncover his past while training to become an *********. Unlike other previous series entries, Mirage is a lot smaller in scope and goes back to the stealth-centric gameplay players liked pre-Origins.

However, as Digital Trends’ Tomas Franzese wrote in his review, it doesn’t do nearly enough to refresh the long-running series. “At first, *********’s Creed Mirage seems like it’s going through all of the proper classical motions of an old-school *********’s Creed game, but it lacks the passion and innovation necessary to make it a truly memorable installment.”

But maybe a short, more classic adventure is just what you need ahead of *********’s Creed Shadows, which was recently delayed from November 15, 2024, to February 14, 2025. Ubisoft said the delay was to give the developers more time to “polish and refine the experience,” and it coincided with an executive announcement that it would be making some changes after its latest open-world action RPG, Star Wars Outlaws, sold less than expected.

The publisher also announced that it would be going back to Steam day one releases, and that it would be removing the season pass model from its upcoming games.
