A person familiar tells me parts of this new Assassin's Creed leak are true (such as the name and the other stuff Bloomberg has already reported: spring 23, Baghdad, back to AC basics) and other parts are not ("multiple cities to explore") https://t.co/qmM6UZtKnG

The recent set of rumors and speculation comes from YouTuber j0nathan, who claims that Assassin’s Creed Mirage is supposedly targeting a Spring 2023 release. First reported by Bloomberg back in February of this year, Ubisoft was going to release a smaller game sometime this year to fill in the gap until Assassin’s Creed Infinity launches in 2024.

The project, codenamed “Project Rift,” was set to follow the story of Basim from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla in a much smaller entry that would focus more on stealth and his early adventures. During the developer’s earnings call back in July, it was revealed that a “smaller, premium title” would be delayed until 2023, with many believing it to be this very title. If this information proves correct, which Jason Schreier has cosigned, then this is the most information fans of Assassin’s Creed have gotten to date on what Mirage could hold.

Interestingly enough, the idea of a “full remake” of the first Assassin’s Creed game is the most intriguing prospect in the sea of leaks. Remakes have seen a ton of success and criticism, but with the Assassin’s Creed franchise experiencing tremendous change since the first game, this could be a return to the roots that some fans are hoping for. With the upcoming Ubisoft Forward show arriving next month, time will tell where the series heads next and the validity of these rumors.

That is everything you need to know on the possible release timeline of Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
