Assassin’s Creed Mirage is coming to Steam this month

Ubisoft will release Assassin’s Creed Mirage on Steam this month.

Billed as a love letter to the original Assassin’s Creed, Mirage was released in October 2023 for consoles and PC (via Epic Games Store and the Ubisoft Store), before making its way to iPhone this June.

Following Star Wars Outlaws‘ weaker than expected launch in August, Ubisoft recently delayed Assassin’s Creed Shadows to February 2025.

At the same time, Ubisoft said Assassin’s Creed Shadows will mark the return of its new releases to Steam on day one.

It also announced plans to release Star Wars Outlaws on Steam on November 21, 2024.

Mirage’s development was led by Ubisoft Bordeaux, the studio behind Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Wrath of the Druids expansion.

Gameplay is focused on parkour, stealth and assassinations, marking a return to the action-adventure style of games released prior to the more expansive RPG-style series entries Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla.
