Ubisoft has announced a release date for Assassin’s Creed Mirage on iOS devices.
Pre-orders are now open ahead of the game’s release on June 6, 2024, for iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and iPad Air and iPad Pro with the M1 chip or later.
The release date seemingly confirms a delay for iOS version of the game, which was announced last September for release in “early 2024”.
“Players will be able to experience the complete narrative-driven action adventure of Assassin’s Creed Mirage on the go, exploring 9th century Baghdad as Basim, a young thief who transforms into a Master Assassin,” Ubisoft said today.
“Developed by Ubisoft Sofia, the iPhone and iPad versions of the game feature the same experience as the console version. In addition, game controls have been adapted to the iPhone and iPad touch screens, providing an intuitive, comfortable and engaging gaming experience.
“Cross-progression and cross-save are also available through Ubisoft Connect, letting players transfer their progress across all available platforms.”
The game will be free to try for 90 minutes, with the full version priced at $49.99.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage was released last October for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
VGC’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage review said its “short, sharp trip through the blood-soaked streets of Baghdad” offered “a welcome return to the series’ roots” and felt like “a breath of fresh air in the endless sea of open world adventure games”.
Tencent has reportedly delayed the release of Assassin’s Creed Jade from this year to 2025.
That’s according to Reuters sources, who claimed last month that Tencent had redeployed hundreds of developers who had been working on the free-to-play mobile game as part of a wider strategy shift.
