More franchises have been dabbling into mythological history in recent years, and Assassin's Creed has found itself as one of the genre's pioneers with its iconic Valhalla and Odyssey titles leveraging on Viking and Spartan folklore respectively. However, this direction hasn't done much to follow in the footsteps of what made the franchise a household name in the first place, and with gamers growing weary of the newer RPG-focused dynamics, Assassin's Creed Mirage heralds a much-needed reset. Ubisoft's decision to place its stock in tactical assassinations and old-fashioned espionage has resonated with the fan base. With the announcement of new features, excitement is building fast to see what Assassin's Creed Mirage has in store.
