“Experience the story of Basim, a cunning street thief who searches for answers and justice as he navigates the busy streets of ninth-century Baghdad,” the description reads. “Through a mysterious ancient organization known as the Hidden Ones, he will become a deadly Master Assassin and change his destiny in ways he never imagined.”
While there’s no release yet, you can wishlist the game on Steam.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage first launched in October 2023 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Epic Games and Ubisoft Connect.
Ubisoft stopped releasing its PC games on Steam in 2019 after releasing its own launcher, but has not given a reason for the decision. However, it could come down to the need to increase overall sales after Star Wars Outlaws performed poorly for the company.
