Assassin's Creed Mirage is right around the corner and it's seemingly going to be the first stop
on ubisoft's big plan Assassin's Creed comeback tour we've heard quite a bit recently about this
game and the plethora of other Assassin's Creed games and we just learned that this was getting
pushed back slightly due to a new integration with ubisoft's new Assassin's Creed Infinity
platform I'm telling you we're getting an AC Multiverse everyone but that has also naturally
raised some concerns of the community over the game's actual quality which is fair you can only
delay a game so many times before people start worrying about where it's all gonna end up but
luckily for you guys we just got a massive leak regarding Assassin's Creed mirage's gameplay the
release date and the story and it all comes from a very reliable source who seems to have
seen an early build of the game no this is not a 4chan League video today welcome to the channel
everybody chaos here today we're going to go over the new Assassin's Creed Mirage leaks that have
just hit the internet you guys let me know what you think of these and let me know are you going
to be buying this day one are you are you sold on this Assassin's Creed hype train that Ubisoft is
building for the future of the franchise now with all these new leaks that were detailed by French
YouTuber Jonathan I mean big shout out to him for compiling all the information we're gonna go over
everything check out his channel as well it's all in French obviously so there may be a language
barrier there but you can Google translate now according to Jonathan AC Mirage is currently
set to release on October 12th although it may get pushed back to November but Ubisoft will not push
it back any further than that meaning the game is 100 coming out this year no matter what happens
now previously there were some leaks regarding the game being integrated with the Assassin's
Creed Infinity platform which we covered in the video not too long ago and that may be causing
some of the delays but it looks like Ubisoft is only willing to push the game back so far
if that's the case so expect the game to launch on October 12th but don't be shocked if it gets moved
to the beginning of November now as many of you have already guessed it seems all but confirmed
at this point that the game was originally written as DLC for Valhalla but once it entered production
it was spun off on its own project and had an entirely new gameplay style that was meant to
be a throwback to Classic based Assassin's Creed games stealth based games that is which a lot
of people are excited about and that was likely done to both complement the smaller scale of the
story and also address recent criticisms from the community that the franchise the franchise strayed
too far from its roots too far off the path a lot of people think now before we move on guys
if you get anything from gfuel.com if you've never tried G fuel check it out use code chaos link is
top in the description whether you're getting tubs whether you're getting shakers they have
so many new flavors and different bundles and specials going on all month and you can get up
to 30 percent off using Code chaos if you do be sure to tweet at me or let me know in the
comment section that you did so I can show you some love as well now back back on track despite
this game being marketed as a return to Assassin Creed Roots the leak suggests that the game plays
actually closer to Assassin's Creed Origins than any of the classic AC games meaning you have a lot
of gadgets you can use during the missions and there's still a skill tree although it's going
to be much smaller than before and has roughly 15 skills to unlock and upgrade as well as a handful
of weapons that can get unlocked and upgraded after completing certain major missions now I
know what you're saying they said it's going to be smaller scale more stealth based like the OG
stuff but then they say it's closer to AC Origins which was more rpg-esque well let's get through
this the assassination system is seemingly closer to the original Assassin's Creed meaning you have
up to four that you have to investigate each one of these know who they are gather and tell and
then take them out which will surely be a breath of fresh air and I think will actually pair well
with the more origin based game playing style now there will also be no myth base gameplay mechanic
so no god-based powers according to this leak or it's just you your tools and the capabilities of
the human body which I also think most of the community will enjoy it the moment-to-moment
gameplay will involve a lot of stealth a lot of tailing targets listening for key information so
on so forth I mean it will be stealth based kind of like a modern update of the original stealth AC
formula instead of being a one-to-one recreation it also has been stated that Eagle Vision will
make a return which will likely help you plan your assassinate assassinations a bit more carefully
than just diving head first into them it will also keep you from making guards too suspicious of you
that's right the notoriety system is allegedly coming back meaning as you venture around the
map certain actions will make guards and officials more suspicious of you so you'll have to keep an
eye on how how such you're acting while hunting down your targets dialogue choices of seemingly
completely removed and the story is totally it's totally linear so it's on Rails this time meaning
there's no way to change the outcome based on any decisions which some will see as a negative others
will seize a nice return to form me personal really I mean most of you know Odyssey is one
of my favorite AC games of all time it's actually one of my favorite games and having the choices to
go different paths and have different stories and outlines and endings I absolutely love that so to
go back to a very very linear path on the rails I don't know we'll have to see now the leaker also
says the parkour system will not be as deep as it was in Assassin's Creed Unity which will probably
be a little disappointing to some of you but it's likely due to limitations with the new
Assassin's Creed engine which was obviously built for large-scale RPGs and not small scale stealth
based games now it's not a great excuse for the parkour system being limited but that's just
some speculation on my part I I'm gonna guess that's why the Codex is also reportedly coming
back as are the factions meaning you can recruit people to your gang like thieves and mercenaries
and presumably give them jobs to do while you're taking care of your business now let's talk about
the story you uh I mean you're gonna be following the same as as he's a simple thief in Baghdad who
comes across an ancient artifact that serves as the basis of the plot now as for the story
you'll be following the protagonist well he's a simple thief in Baghdad he comes across an ancient
artifact that serves as the basis for your entire plot the map will be much smaller than the last
few games featuring only the city of Baghdad and a handful of surrounding areas but one of
the main plots of Interest or points of interest will apparently be the eso temple in the Fortress
now this is somehow already been added to the official Assassin's Creed Wiki possibly by Ubisoft
themselves as a way to Hype up the community the leaker suggests that the Baghdad map will roughly
be the size of Paris in Assassin's Creed Unity but there will be a decent amount of side areas
around the main city the game will start in a small city northwest of Baghdad so if you ever
played Unity that's your kind of idea the story will explore the origins of the assassins and
how they got their start and the leaker also says there aren't many cut scenes in the game so the
story will be told told throughout gameplay and dialogue as opposed to lengthy cinematics where
the player isn't actually in control which I'm on the fence about I don't want half the game to be
cinematics but I also think cinematics add a huge part in a bunch of depth to games and stories if
you're telling a really good story I personally like cinematics but that's just me maybe you guys
like it being told through gameplay and dialogue so going over all the leaks I have mixed feelings
on one hand I love that we're getting back to the more stealth based experience as much as
I've loved the RPG Assassin's Creed games Origins and odyssey and in Valhalla I do think it's a
little strange that a franchise called Assassin's Creed got so far off the path from assassinations
and stealth I'm also excited for the smaller scale story because I do think it'll be a great
change of pace after a few years of these giant extravagant World shifting epics because again as
much as I love the larger scale Assassin's Creed games I'm excited to return to war linear and
objective driven experience and see what it's like again it I know I'm gonna get my RPG experiences
in the future because there's so many titles coming so I'm not really worried about that but
my concerns my concerns come from the fact that it's seemingly being built upon the RPG Assassin's
Creed template instead of being built from scratch and that's why the gameplay is going to be so
similar to AC Origins according to Jonathan if it ends up being true yes the level design
in the mission structure will be more linear and the stealth-driven vibe of it but the leaks make
it clear that the actual feel of the gameplay is going to be way closer to AC Origins than anything
else and I don't know if that's going to offer the same kind of experience that long time fans
are hoping for we keep talking about Stealth based and smaller and the the OG Assassin's Creed Vibe
and I know fans are getting excited about that I just don't want them to get in there and then
it'd be more like AC Origins just on a smaller scale because that's not what they're looking
for those hopes are going to be dashed if that's what we end up getting the larger scale Assassins
Creed games simply were not built for this kind of game and I think that's highlighted in the
leaks where it says the parkour system is rather limited compared to previous games I mean I feel I
I'll be honest I feel like that's backwards I mean aren't later games in a franchise supposed to be
evolutions of Concepts shouldn't a 2023 Assassin's Creed game have better parkour than the one that
came out almost 10 years ago am I wrong here am I off base am I thinking am I am I overthinking
this you guys let me know what you think I mean you can write this off partially because it's a
prequel I guess that's one excuse that can be used but for a big comeback game I was kind of hoping
for more now once again these leaks are alleged so maybe some of them don't end up coming to
fruition it's the first Assassin's Creed game to launch on the PS5 and it's the first stealth based
Assassin's Creed game in a long long time here we'll do a little a little trivia or quiz tell
me what the last true stealth based Assassin's Creed game was in the comments section I mean
it's been a while so the fact that parkour isn't going to be better than it was before it's a bit
of a letdown and stuff like that is really what makes me concerned about the game and some of you
may be saying you're nitpicking there well maybe I am maybe I'm not like I said earlier AC Mirage
started development as DLC for one of the RPG Assassin's Creed games so obviously the gameplay
isn't going to stray too far from that game's core outline which is why so many comparisons
are being drawn between Mirage and Origins look at Modern Warfare 2. we're getting Modern Warfare
3 this year and it started out as Modern Warfare 2 DLC so it can't be too much off the path that's
the same vibe that I'm getting from this so how much is the fact that it was going to be DLC for
a bigger much more expansive RPG Assassin's Creed game going to restrict its potential how much of
this game's vision is going to be compromised for the sake of getting it up and running within an
engine and framework of an entirely different game we've seen this in the past and sometimes
it doesn't end up well now I do think Assassin's Creed Mirage makes me excited for the future of
Assassin's Creed games because obviously if this stealth driven game does well Ubisoft is going to
Green Light some new stealth games built from the ground up that the concept would work with
but at the end of the day if the game flops if the game isn't good then people aren't going to
buy it and if Ubisoft is going to continue on with the Assassin's Creed as their Flagship franchise
which they look like they are literally all in and more on right now let's be real they need people
to buy Assassin's Creed Mirage that's what kicks this whole thing off then we get into the infinity
platform then we get into going or codename red and Jade and the VR in the mobile games there's
so many different Assassin's Creed projects that are being worked on right now it all starts with
Mirage remember Ubisoft reportedly has a dozen other AC games in development let me repeat
that a dozen 12 12 projects being developed and if AC Mirage is supposed to be the game
that kicks everybody off gets everybody excited for the rebirth of the franchise
it's got to be good it's all going to tie into AC Infinity also don't forget there's the rumor
of the Assassin's Creed 1 remastered that we saw footage in their trailer that looked like a much
more detailed Assassin's Creed one so is that on the Shelf is it done is it real I don't know if
Assassin's Creed Mirage fails to meet expectations or it ends up being a disappointment that will be
a huge problem for ubisoft's future plans and it may end up causing the publisher to sink deeper
and deeper into that hole that they've already gotten themselves into over the last few years
I don't want that to happen I don't I love this franchise I remember playing the first game now
the first game hasn't aged well at all there's a lot of issues but it's the lure of it it's it's
just the I don't know it's you guys know what I'm saying I don't want that to happen I want it to be
good but if they're not making good products it's inevitable they have too much uh writing on this
they really really do so give me your thoughts AC Mirage October or November we're gonna play it
we're all going to decide one way or another judge Dairy executioner whether or not it's a good game
or not but it has much bigger ramifications across the entire franchise than just one solo game you
guys let me know if you're excited for it how do you think it's going to play out with what
we talked about today being built off of a much bigger RPG Assassin's Creed platform but scaled
down do you think that's going to work do you think the limitations are going to be there do
you think cutting out parkour a bunch and all those different things are going to affect it
do you like the fact there won't be a lot of cinematics in it man I don't know I'm on the
fence completely I'll keep you guys posted if we get anything new and I'll see you soon
