Assassin’s Creed Mirage was originally intended as an expansion to Assassin’s Creed Valhalla but later became a standalone title. Despite its release in late 2023 and initial criticisms regarding dated visuals and by-the-book mechanics, the game received positive reviews from both critics and fans. Our review, penned by Nathan Birch, noted that while it doesn’t make the sharpest first impression, the game sneaks up on you with a vibrant map, intricate campaign, and varied missions.
There are rumors that Assassin’s Creed Mirage may receive a DLC funded by the Savvy Games Group, but this remains unconfirmed. If true, the DLC would need to be purchased separately from the Game Pass addition.
