5 Things Mirage Took From Classic Assassin’s Creed (& 5 From Newer Games)

Assassin’s Creed Mirage is billed as a return to the roots of Assassin’s Creed, but that doesn’t mean that the newer games haven’t influenced it as well. Taking place in Baghdad during the Islamic Golden Age, Mirage focuses on bringing one city to life and emphasizing the stealth gameplay and parkour that defined the early titles of the franchise. It’s been 16 years since the first game released, however, and many developments since then also have value to offer in crafting a new attempt at a classic experience.
