While Ubisoft certainly did a good job with Assassin’s Creed Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla by turning the series into something more of an open world RPG. Many fans, even if they liked Valhalla felt that the series had started to get away from what it once was. Assassin’s Creed Mirage is going back to the series’ roots with a smaller map and more of a focus on stealth and using your athletic ability to parkour around the map.
Those who felt that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla was just too much for them will be happy with this more scaled back, but still epic Assassin’s Creed experience. Of course, as this is Ubisoft, there are different versions of the game and that is why today we are looking at Assassin’s Creed Mirage what edition should I buy?
When Is It Out And What Is It On?
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is currently scheduled for release on October 12th for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC.
Is There A Pre-Order Bonus?
Hey, of course, there is! If you pre-order Assassin’s Creed Mirage you will get access to The Forty Thieves which is a bonus quest and one that actually looks like it will be a lot of fun.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage Standard Edition
PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, PC
The base version of Assassin’s Creed Mirage comes with the game and that is all. If you pre-order, you will get the bonus mission, The Forty Thieves. The game is not priced at 70 bucks which is nice to see. It is currently listed at $49.99/£44,99.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Launch Edition
PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One
Now, Amazon has their own special edition called, The Launch Edition. With this, you get the base game, but you also get a set of three lithographs and a Baghdad map as well. Getting actual physical goodies is always cool, especially when this Assassin’s Creed Launch Edition is the same price as the standard edition!
Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Deluxe Edition
PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, PC
Next up we have the Assassin’s Creed Mirage Deluxe Edition. This is listed at $59,99/£49,99 which is a fantastic price and just a little more than the standard edition! With this, you of course get the game. However, this also comes with the Deluxe Pack. The Deluxe Pack comes with some great items such as a Prince of Persia inspired outfit, mount and eagle skins, weapons, and some other in game content too. It also includes a digital artbook and soundtrack.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Collector’s Case
PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One
The Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Collector’s Case is the ultimate edition of the game and perfect for those that love their physical collectibles. This is currently priced at $1,49,99/£1,299 which for a collector’s edition is not actually all that bad of a price especially when it comes with some very cool physical items. You get the base game as well as all of the content from the Assassin’s Creed Deluxe Edition. However, you also get the following items as well.
Basim Figurine: This is a very cool looking figure of the main character and for collectors, this is worth the price of the Collector’s Case alone.
Basim’s Broach: Another neat physical item is a replica of the broach that Basim wears in the game.
Steelbook Case: The steelbook case for Assassin’s Creed Mirage is extra special as its design was voted for by the fans.
The Art of Assassin’s Creed Mirage: You get a mini artbook featuring some great art from the game.
Selected Soundtrack: You also get a soundtrack featuring some of the best music from the game.
A Map: You get an actual physical map of Baghdad (not sure if it is exactly the same as the one in the Amazon Launch Edition)
What Edition Of Assassin’s Creed Mirage Should I Buy?
If you just want the game, the best version you can get is the Assassin’s Creed Mirage Launch Edition from Amazon. You are paying the same price (maybe even five bucks less) than the standard edition and you are getting a collection of lithographs and a map. The Deluxe Edition is priced quite fairly too and if you are a Prince of Persia fan, you will get a kick out of the costume included there. As far as the Assassin’s Creed Mirage Collectors Case goes, the statue and other physical collectibles are awesome and if you are a huge fan of the game, you may want to get that sooner than later as these editions can sell out.
