Did Ubisoft let the genie out of the bottle with Assassin’s Creed Origins? Some argue that the franchise only got bigger and better after adopting a more open-world RPG style, while others claim that it became bloated and lost its identity. The latest entry, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, should be right up the dusty alley of those who prefer the earlier titles. Mirage aims to rediscover the series’ roots, with a focus on stealth and parkour movement in a smaller world. Originally conceived as an expansion for Valhalla, it grew big enough to become a standalone release. While Mirage is somewhat inconsistent and carries over flaws from the recent games, it is still mostly a valuable return to the classic experience.
