Assassin's Creed Mirage Reviews
Assassin's Creed Mirage develops Basim into a well written character and makes following his story enjoyable. Mirage also has a beautiful world where gamers can enjoy Baghdad's amazing structures and using Arabic music helps building a great atmosphere. But gameplay is where Mirage falls short. The game mainly uses the same mechanics from Assassin's Creed Valhalla and it's not a return to roots as it was advertised in prerelease trailers. overall if you're a fan of Assassin's Creed game you will still enjoy Mirage but don't expect anything fresh and revolutionary.

Assassin's Creed Mirage does bring back some good old memories due to its setting and classic structure, but unfortunately it also inherits some serious issues from its predecessors. from inconsistent AI behavior to sporadic screen tear in crowded places. that aside, lack of interesting side quest and side content is also somewhat noticable. nonetheless, it's an acceptable assassin's Creed experience that could entertain us for some hours.

Nice to see another Assassin's Creed game to explain yet another exciting story on another character, well done Ubisoft.
Assassin's Creed went backwards (literally) with Mirage. Even though they have managed to capture Baghdad in a perfect way, yet they failed to deliver a good game on its own.

Assassin's Creed Mirage is an excellent homage to the past and a well-realized title in its own right.

Assassin's Creed Mirage granted a personal wish and carried us to the city of peace, presenting it wonderfully in terms of both visuals and sounds, even though Orientalism was very apparent in the way it depicted its setting and characters. However, the repetitive gameplay loop and the weak enemy AI do weaken the whole experience

In Mirage, Assassin's Creed embarks on an exhilarating journey back to its origins, immersing players in the enigmatic world of Basim, the Baghdad Sleuth. Mirage presents a blend of stealth-focused gameplay within a more intimate urban landscape, where players unravel intriguing mysteries in a city shrouded in secrets.

I'm not sure who's the target audience for Assassin's Creed: Mirage. It goes beyond returning to basics and is just basic. It's not terrible or unplayable, and if you enjoy the core Assassin's Creed gameplay or want a chance to run around Baghdad, it might scratch your itch. The problem is one that I've never had with an Assassin's Creed title before. They have problems, flaws, and issues aplenty, but each one felt like there was ambition behind it. Mirage feels unmemorable and bland and plays like a phoned-in Assassin's Creed title.
Assassin's Creed Mirage turns out to be a very welcome return to its roots. It suffers, however, from more than obvious technical problems. It is not so much a matter of bugs, since in this respect the title also performs well, but an overall care that is really too sloppy. For example, the good weapon feedback that Valhalla presented is completely gone in Mirage. The animations are then worse than in a great many other titles from Ubisoft itself. If we then add a cute storyline but nothing more the result is a barely decent title. We therefore recommend giving the title a try to die-hard fans of the saga; however, we cannot say that we were completely satisfied with Basim's adventures.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage brings back the feel of a classic Assassin’s Creed game thanks to its more focussed gameplay experience and the way the game plays out narratively. The returned focus of stealth based gameplay let’s you embody the mind of an assassin and the varied mission types allow you to put all of your skills to the test and achieve the outcome in the way you best see fit.
With some buggy hiccups, Assassin's Creed: Mirage offers a tightly packed experience with a good story.
On one hand, the game is tight, focused and has that unmistakable classic feel people asked for after Valhalla. On the other, it feels derivative and stuck in the past.
Assassin's Creed: Mirage serves as a heartfelt tribute to devoted fans of the franchise, evoking the nostalgia of the earlier, arguably superior days of Assassin's Creed.
Despite its problems, Assassin’s Creed Mirage genuinely feels like a love letter to the games in the series that kickstarted its legacy.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is simply a very enjoyable title. If you're interested in the setting, then go right ahead.

Assassin's Creed Mirage shows such a glaring lack of ambition that it's almost hurtful. It doesn't excel in anything beyond its setting, leaving us with a lackluster adventure that feels like a chore to play. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone other than a die-hard fan of the franchise.

Assassin's Creed Mirage is here to embrace both hardcore fans and newcomers to the series. If you're attracted to living worlds with their own dynamics in video games, I can recommend a visit to Baghdad. With the stealth-oriented gameplay we miss, the twists and turns of the story and the weight of the characters, Mirage is a game that both winks at old games and opens the door to new ones.

But, as is always the case with Assassin’s Creed, the setting really makes it stand out. A built-in codex features a treasure trove of historical research, all of which has fed into this version’s immaculate creation and, while its various systemic changes will annoy some, there’s no denying that its representation of historical Baghdad is a joy to explore.
This attempt to “meet in the middle” between styles, while it should appeal to a wider range of fans, doesn’t really excel in the realms of stealth or ARPG. The result is a fairly average action-adventure with glimpses of greatness, but which lacks cohesion and doesn’t quite rise to its potential.
Assassins Creed has taken many forms to date, but this has been my favourite, a return to its roots while taking many of its adaptions and changing the title for the better.
