The Next Assassin’s Creed game’s image may have leaked

An official announcement about a new Assassin’s Creed game could be close as the first image of the title could have leaked, according to a report by DualShockers. The report is based on an image shared by Rainbow Six Siege leaker and dataminer Script on Twitter. At the time of writing this story, the image was no longer available on the Twitter link and has been actually “removed in response to a report by the copyright holder”. However, we have the screenshot of the image, according to which the new game will be called Assassin’s Creed Mirage.

The art in the image could be of a DLC or special mission for Assassin’s Creed Mirage

as the words ‘The Forty Thieves Quest’ lie below the main title, and certainly read like the name for an expansion pack.

Going by the leak, it looks highly possible that Ubisoft will announce Assassin’s Creed Mirage in its upcoming Ubisoft Forward showcase this month. According to the report by Dualshockers, the game could be launched in Spring 2023.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage could be the game that was previously said to be set in Baghdad. The outfit of the protagonist also looks similar to the ones worn by his peers in the earlier installments of the franchise. Earlier reports suggested that the Baghdad title would be named Rift, something which Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier also seconded. Rift was said to feature Basim Ibn Ishaq from Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla and at one time, was intended to be released as an expansion pack for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Whether or not Mirage and Rift are one and the same remains to be seen. We will have to wait for the official word to drop.
