Assassin’s Creed Mirage, featuring the fan-favorite character Basim, gives us a glimpse into his early career as an assassin. As Mirage takes players to ancient Egypt in a game where fans will get to see action that is reminiscent of the original games 

With Assassin’s Creed Valhalla released in 2020, Mirage comes as a sequel to the game. As fans get ready to see what Mirage has to offer, many wonder where the game fits in within the AC timeline.

Where does Assassin’s Creed Mirage fall in the timeline?

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. In 49 BCE, Aya and Bayek established the Hidden Ones, and Origins unfolded. In contrast, Valhalla unfolds in 872 CE, portraying Basim as a seasoned warrior.

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.

Trailers for the game showcase Basim encountering an entity within his assassination corridors. These corridors are where assassins and Hidden Ones engage in monologues during assassinations. Fans speculate that the entity is a Djinn, commonly known as a genie.
