Before Assassin’s Creed Mirage launched for PC and consoles last October, Ubisoft announced that the game would also be coming to certain iOS devices in early 2024. Given that we’re now in May and that has yet to often, plans obviously changed, but the company has now announced a specific release date for the open world action-adventure title’s iOS port.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage Developer Has Ideas for More Stories with Protagonist Basim
24.04.2024 - 21:19 / gamingbolt.com / Ubisoft
Last year’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage was very much a back-to-the-basics moment for Ubisoft’s flagship franchise, opting to have a smaller world with a gameplay loop focused on stealth and parkouring, rather than the RPG mechanics that the series has become known for. Whether or not we’ll ever see a direct follow-up to Mirage is a question that some series fans have wondered at since the game launched last October, and though there’s no concrete answers on that front yet, its development team certainly seems open to the idea of making more games with Mirage’s protagonist Basim.
Caught by VGC, in a recent Reddit AMA, when asked about potential DLC plans, Assassin’s Creed Mirage Stephane Boudon reiterated that there are no such plans in place, but added that the development team does have ideas for more stories with Basim that it could tap into eventually.
“We’re thrilled by the reception of Mirage,” he wrote. “Mirage has been designed as a standalone experience without any DLC planned. However, we have ideas on how we could extend the story of Basim, surely. But as of today, no post-launch content is planned for Mirage.”
In another response, Boudon added that Ubisoft still has “a lot to say” about Basim, but said that it would be just as exciting to work on something new with fewer restraints than a prequel like Mirage would come with.
“Telling the coming-of-age story of Basim was a blast for us, so clearly, yes, we still have a lot to say about Basim,” he wrote. “On the other hand, creating a game with that much constrains is a difficult exercise, and as the team we would also love to explore new horizons and have more creative freedom.”
Assassin’s Creed Mirage was itself a prequel, of course, covering the origins and younger years of Basim, who was first introduced as an older Hidden One in 2020’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Clearly, Basim has become important to the series’ larger framework, but whether we’ll ever see him as a game’s leading man again remains to be seen.
For now, next up for Ubisoft’s franchise is Assassin’s Creed Codename Red, while the game after that, Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe, is also in development.

Assassin's Creed Mirage won't get story DLC, but the devs have "ideas on how we could extend the story of Basim"
As an Assassin's Creed girlie, I enjoyed Assassin's Creed Mirage, a pared down (but still big game, which is really just proof of how bloated AAA games have gotten, but I'll stop because it's not time to take my personal bugbear for a walk) Ass Creed game that was closer to the simplicity of the older games in the stab 'em up stealth-action series. Yesterday creative director Stéphane Boudon and art director Jeal-Luc Sala took to Reddit for an AMA, and in response to a question about plans for Mirage DLC, Boudon said no - but that they have ideas for more stories for Basim.

Assassin's Creed Mirage launched in October last year, offering a pared back, back-to-the basics experience reminiscent of older games in the series. The action-adventure title from Ubisoft took players to 9th-century Baghdad, putting them in the shoes of Basim Ibn Ishaq, a street thief who joins the Hidden Ones and rises through the ranks to become a master assassin. While there's no word on if the franchise will revisit the character again, Assassin's Creed Mirage creative director has said that the team has ideas about where Basim's story could go.
