A new Assassin’s Creed game has been announced, and it’s starting to go up for preorder. Assassin’s Creed Mirage is set to release in 2023 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. Style-wise, it’s pitched as a throwback to the early Assassin’s Creed games, with a smaller map and a focus on stealth kills and parkour traversal. As such, Mirage is expected to be shorter than recent releases like Valhalla and Odyssey, and is priced accordingly: $49.99 for the standard edition.
