Assassin's Creed Mirage isn't coming to Steam

Assassin’s Creed Mirage isn't coming to Steam on PC, which will surely disappoint fans.

The next entry in the long-running Ubisoft series was first announced back in September 2022. However, up until recently, we hadn't seen any gameplay and with reports of internal delays, fans of the Assassin’s Creed series grew concerned that Mirage would enter the dreaded developmental hell.

Take a look at Assassin's Creed Mirage's latest gameplay trailer below.

Alas, this week during the PlayStation Showcase event, all our concerns were washed away like the sands of time when Assassin’s Creed Mirage was unveiled to the world with an incredible gameplay trailer. What’s more, Assassin’s Creed Mirage promises to bring back an emphasis on stealth and some hope that it will also mean far less bloated RPG elements.

Furthermore, the map to Mirage also recently leaked and it’s a lot smaller than recent entries, something that I’m all for. As with previous titles, Mirage will also be multi-format across PC, PlayStation and Xbox. The game will be available both physically and digitally, which seems like I'm stating the obvious but it's been revealed that Alan Wake II - also revealed during the showcase - is digital only, so it's good to confirm.

As for PC players, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is available via Ubsioft’s own launcher, while players will also hope to at least have the choice of Steam or the Epic Games Store. Unfortunately though, as reported by Comicbook.com, Assassin’s Creed Mirage will not be available on Steam. This will no doubt disappoint a lot of fans because up until Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, series entries have been available on the platform. This means that other than Ubisoft’s own launcher, PC players can only purchase Mirage via the Epic Games Store.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage will be released for PC, PlayStation and Xbox on 12 October 2023.
