Gamers seeking a console-like experience on their iPhones have something exciting to anticipate with Ubisoft’s upcoming release, Assassin’s Creed Mirage. The game will be accessible for free download, offering a 90-minute trial, on iPhone 15, 15 Plus, Pro, and Pro Max models. The release date may vary between June 6th, as stated by Ubisoft, and June 10th, as per the App Store listing.
Pricing and Availability
Following the initial 90-minute trial, players will be required to pay $50 to unlock the full game. The game will also be compatible with iPad Air and iPad Pro models featuring the M1 chip or later, with a similar post-trial price point. Players can benefit from cross-progression through Ubisoft Connect, enabling them to continue their game across different devices seamlessly.
Game Overview
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is designed to be a more compact and focused gaming experience compared to recent titles like Odyssey and Valhalla. Originally conceived as downloadable content for Valhalla, Mirage revisits the franchise's core essence by emphasizing stealth gameplay. While not the pioneering high-budget title on iPhone 15, Mirage, following the footsteps of Resident Evil remakes and ports such as No Man’s Sky and Baldur’s Gate 3, assures an immersive gaming journey.
Performance and Controls
Past reviews of other top-tier mobile games hint at remarkable graphics and performance akin to a PlayStation 4 Pro or mid-range gaming laptops. However, the touch controls might pose limitations, hence the recommendation to utilize a compatible PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch controller, or an attachable controller like the Razer Kishi for an enhanced gaming experience.
