Here’s why Assassin’s Creed Mirage has that weird teleport move
Assassin’s Creed Mirage includes what many can only describe as a teleport ability. With the Ubisoft stealth game finally showing off some gameplay recently, this brief clip has been on many Assassin’s Creed Mirage fans’ minds, and it looks like we’ve finally got an answer directly from Ubisoft about the mechanic ahead of the Assassin’s Creed Mirage release date real soon.

It took me a lot of different ideas and prototypes to get here. At first, it was too powerful, but I was able to build up the gauge by succeeding in stealth, and then I was able to use it, and it was sublimated into Assassin’s Creed-like skill.
The “Assassin’s Creed protagonist is a human and not a superhero,” Potts continues. “So we’ve done a lot of work to ensure that multiple assassinations can be done with smooth transitions while still being ground-based.”
