Assassin's Creed Mirage Fr/nl PS5

Assassin’s Creed Mirage returns to the roots of the franchise, but doesn’t bring anything new to the table, at least nothing important. This is far from being a bad game, but it’s certainly not a breath of fresh air for an antiquated series. The things that pull Assassin’s Creed Mirage out of the mediocrity pool are the setting, voice acting and soundtrack. Although I had an enjoyable experience playing Mirage, I can’t shake the feeling that I’ve already played this game numerous times in the past.

If I was to rate this as a standalone game, divorced from everything else in the franchise, I’d probably give it a 7.0 out of 10. Nothing is broken, I got the platinum trophy in just under 30 hours, and it’s fine enough. But from the lens of an Assassin’s Creed fan, I’d give this, at best a 4.0 out of 10, since the only real new gameplay system, is lifted from a Splinter Cell game from over a decade ago. I’ll split the difference and be charitable by giving it a 6.0, and that’s only because Shohreh Aghdashloo is an inspired casting choice.

Assassin's Creed Mirage is the game that old school fans of the series have been waiting for. By taking the action back to its roots, Ubisoft has crafted one of the most exciting entries in the long running stealth series for the best part of a decade.
