Assassin’s Creed Mirage is fast approaching (felt) and is expected at the turn. It must be said that Ubisoft has sought to sell dreams to all lovers of the first episodes of the saga by announcing a return to basics eagerly awaited by a large part of the community. But a new leak risks making them disillusioned now.
Go back to the root of his license, accentuate infiltration and review parkour for sensations “as before”. That’s the promise of Assassin’s Creed Mirage. So far, fans at the time were pretty happy. Every new information regarding the game, whether official or not, is rather well received, even when talking about the reduced size of the world map. Assassin’s Creed Mirage was off to a pretty good start, except that a new leak tells us something much less rosy: microtransactions.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage disappoints everyone with a big leak
Well it’s not new, Ubisoft is not the only follower, microtransactions are now commonplace in most current productions, regardless of the caliber elsewhere. Whether the game is multiplayer, a game-service or single-player, it doesn’t matter. Nowadays, boosters, loot boxes and small cosmetic DLCs are legion.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage, like the previous opuses, will not fail to do so and will also have the right to cosmetic type microtransactions, at first sight anyway. A type of microtransactions that could already be found in recent games of the franchise.
A cold shower before going out
They were so far the subject of rumors and would have finally been confirmed by several well-informed Twitter users. We can indeed find visuals of cosmetic packs sold in an online store. We will keep tweezers since nothing has been formalized, but there would be nothing surprising to find this kind of DLC in AC Mirage. If there are many customers for this kind of little additional content, players are already raising their voices on social networks. The arguments are always the same. Some say it should be content to unlock in-game, others that DLC prepared before the game’s release should not exist and finally there are those who don’t care at all.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage will be released on PS5, Xbox Series, PC, PS4 and Xbox One from October 12, 2023. By then, players may have finally swallowed the pill (no).
