Ubisoft developers have confirmed they have more ideas revolving around Assassin’s Creed Mirage protagonist Basim, but reiterate that the game is a standalone experience.
In a Reddit AMA, several Ubisoft developers answered questions about Assassin’s Creed Mirage and the future of the franchise. “We’re thrilled by the reception of Mirage! Mirage [has been designed] as a standalone experience without any [DLC planned],” explained creative director Stephane Boudon. “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.”
It’s unclear what kind of way Basim could appear again. While Boudon said that there are no plans for Mirage DLC, that doesn’t rule out something like a direct sequel or a cameo in future Assassin’s Creed games.
Ubisoft had a past promotion with Twitch where players could earn in-game rewards through Twitch Drops by watching support streams. One such reward was Basim’s sword from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Boudon said that the sword will be available through Ubisoft Connect at a later date without the need for a Twitch Drop.
One user asked if non-lethal knockout options will be added to Mirage in the future, and Boudon answered that they won’t be. However, that’s something that Ubisoft’s development teams could consider going forward.
Ubisoft is currently working on multiple Assassin’s Creed projects. One of them is Codename Hexe, which reportedly will let players pocess and control a cat.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is now available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. In GameSpot’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage review, we said, “Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s focus on social stealth and detective work makes for a compelling dive into ninth-century Baghdad.”
