Assassin’s Creed has been an iconic franchise since its debut in the year 2007. However, the series has witnessed lots of ups and downs in the last decade when it comes to the popularity of its games. Barring few exceptions, not all of them have been able to impress the loyal fans.

Fans are delighted after knowing the details from the leak for new Assassin’s Creed game

Jason Schreier, who’s a reporter for Bloomberg and a reputed insider, recently shared a crucial information on the brand new entry in the long-running series. While mentioning the title, he wrote that the next Assassin’s Creed game will be called Mirage. That’s according to a source who provided him with the leaked intel.

The story of Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s will be set in Baghdad during the Anarchy in Samarra, between 860 and 870. The game will feature Basim as the main protagonist, who was last seen in Valhalla.

He will be portrayed in his youth, as a thief, before the time of his arrival at Hidden Ones. Per Schreier, as mentioned in the leak, the game will return to the basics while taking inspirations from AC1.

There won’t be any RPG elements present in this offering. For example, there will be no dialogue choices and no leveling system either. However, going by what Jason has emphasized, the latest leak is not fully convincing.
