We’ll be exploring a city set around the events of the deadly Zanj Rebellion. Here’s what we know about theAssassin’s Creed Miragecountry we’ll be exploring.
What is theAssassin’s Creed Miragecountry featured?
Assassin’s Creed Mirageis set in 9th century Iraq, the latest in the world-traveledAssassin’s Creedseries, which has seen players visit France, England, Egypt, the United States, and Italy.Mirage‘s main hub is based around the country’s capital, Baghdad, and is set 20 years beforeAssassin’s Creed: Valhalla, which featured Basim as an older NPC.
“Basim is going to be coming from a street thief to a master assassin,” said narrative director Sarah Beaulieu during theAssassin’s Creed2022 Showcase video. The narrative director also called Baghdad “beautiful,” “vibrant,” and “magnificent.”
“It’s a very dense city, where you’re going to meet a lot of different people,” Beaulieu said.

Every game in the series has featured historical figures. For example, inAssassin’s Creed 2,we met the genius Leonardo di Vinci. InMirage,we’ll talk to political leaders from the ninth century, according to Beaulieu.
Future games in the series will take us to China, feudal Japan, and the United States (during the witch hunts in Salem).
