Assassin’s Creed Mirage falls between two pivotal entries in the series. It slots chronologically between Assassin’s Creed Origins and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

Basim, a character first introduced as a side character in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, takes center stage in the upcoming title. The game narrates the story of Basim’s beginnings as a member of the Hidden Ones, a precursor to the Assassin Brotherhood.

In Assassin’s Creed Mirage, the Hidden Ones, have not yet evolved into the well-known Assassin Brotherhood. The formal establishment of the Assassins as we know them, transpires later in the original AC game, set in 1176 CE, several centuries after the events of Mirage.
