    That was posted on Reddit by a fan.

    Most reports say it will be called Rift and set in Baghdad

    Who gives a shit? It's DLC add-on shit. If it were built into the mains storyline, that would be one things...but being outraged over something you don't even have to experience in the game is stupid.

    Is it money-grabbing pandering? Sure. Is that the way of basically every game studio in existence now? Also yes.

    According to multiple insiders everything on this list except for multiple cities and the AC1 remake seems to be true


    I’ve been replaying the Ezio collection and I really want the old formula to come back it’s better

    Two more AC games in development besides Mirage. Sounds like the maps are going to be smaller with more focus on gameplay and social stealth I hope

    Official description for Mirage:


    Assassin's Creed Mirage Official Description:
    Experience the story of Basim, a cunning street thief seeking answers and justice as he navigates the bustling streets of ninth-century Baghdad. Through a mysterious, ancient organization known as the Hidden Ones, he will become a deadly Master Assassin and change his fate in ways he never could have imagined.

    - Experience a modern take on the iconic features and gameplay that have defined a franchise for 15 years.
    - Parkour seamlessly through the city and stealthily take down targets with more visceral assassinations than ever before.
    - Explore an incredibly dense and vibrant city whose inhabitants react to your every move, and uncover the secrets of four unique districts as you venture through the Golden Age of Baghdad.

    If you already own the PS4™ version of this game, you can get the PS5™ digital version at no extra cost and you do not need to purchase this product. Owners of a PS4™ disc copy must insert it into the PS5™ every time they want to download or play the PS5™ digital version. PS4™ game disc owners who buy the PS5™ Digital Edition disc-free console will not be able to get the PS5™ version at no extra cost.

    Looks like a smaller but more condensed map. Also we will see gameplay at this showcase on Saturday

    Means I need to hop back into Valhalla soon. Left off after I made it to England and was completing synchronization points

    I thought Valhalla was an outstanding game. After getting burnt out after Odyssey I was pleasantly surprised by the new mechanics of Valhalla.

    Although I checked out on it once the weird Valhalla stuff happened after the main story. I also never touched the DLC that skewed way too fantasy for me.

    Valhalla was a cool little romp through a cool part of history but it’s not an AC game to me

    Odyssey and Valhalla really disappointed me in that regard they felt like completely different IPs. I want an AC game to feel like AC

    Yeah, turning up the sneak requirements/mechanics and increasing/improving the assassinations would be nice.

    I like the old AC combat better than the newer ones. But, I also hate sneaking around, lol. I don’t have patience for those missions.

    I always kind of enjoyed them. They were some of my favorite parts of the Arkham series, too.

    It’ll probably be 2027 but I’m hyped for the Japanese one; especially if they show a return to early day gameplay in the upcoming one.

    word from insiders who knew about Mirage months ago is Japan AC in 2024 and the Project Hexe game in 2026

    Reading some of the responses whining about feudal Japan and ancient China being the same reminds me how little the common folk understand about history.

    I just hope it doesn’t take 100s of hours to beat.

    For me:
    Origins took 60 hours
    Odyssey took 117 hours
    Valhalla I’m like 10 hours in but took an extended break

    The new ones are fun. But I prefer the smaller, a bit more linear, of the older ones.

    I’m also in the minority, most likely, but I liked the old fighting style.

    at least it might be fun for a switch up. Past 3 games have been very similar to each other.

    I have enjoyed the recent games alot more than I anticipated that I would. I generally like the RPG-lite style they have adopted, even if its not necessarily true to the original concept of the games.

    My major gripe has been with the overall stories having almost not direct correlation to actual Assassins Creed. Origins was cool as a concept on how they were formed, Odyssey was a little more strange from a story/assassins standpoint. Valhalla had almost nothing assassins related and the coolest parts were finding the abandoned hideouts. Hoping theres a better shift back to being a true assassin and their lore.

    Question on that, if I own it for PS4 but now have a PS5, will the PS5 upscale it or would I need to download a PS5 version? I've got the hardcopy

    You can play the PS4 disk but it’ll be PS4 quality. You’d need the PS5 version for the next gen graphics and whatnot

    Origins was great, but once you've finished the main story, and/or DLC, there's not much left other than finding all the locations/tablets/etc...

    I like how Odyssey has basically unlimited side missions. It's repetitive as hell, but I like killing for money.

    One thing I like about Vahalla is they brought back instant stealth kills. No more gate keeping for levels
