Follow Us
Ubisoft‘s Assassin’s Creed franchise is going back to its roots with the highly-anticipated release of Assassin’s Creed Mirage. This installment promises to refocus on social stealth and meticulously planned assassinations, marking a departure from the recent action RPG style. Ubisoft’s decision to revisit the classic formula has intrigued long-time fans. However, the question on everyone’s mind is whether the pre-order bonus, The Forty Thieves quest, justifies committing to the game on day one.
We already know that Assassin’s Creed Mirage will sport a color filter that will bring back a lot of memories for veteran fans of the series. While we are eagerly looking forward to how the devs bring back the feeling of the older titles, we are still not sure if the pre-order bonus is worth it.

Pre-ordering Assassin’s Creed Mirage comes with the bonus quest The Forty Thieves. While pre-order bonuses can be enticing, they often carry inherent risks. By pre-ordering, players commit to purchasing a game before fully charting the waters. This can result in disappointment if the game fails to meet expectations. Gamers who pre-order without the possibility of a refund are stuck with their decision, potentially leading to an unsatisfying gaming experience.

Historically, Assassin’s Creed pre-order bonus quests have been of a relatively smaller scale that didn’t amount to much in the main story arc. They tend to be short, isolated narratives that offer minimal rewards in terms of XP or gear. In the grand scheme of Mirage’s gameplay, the bonus quest may not significantly extend the overall experience.
However, for players eager to immerse themselves in Mirage’s rendition of Baghdad, every bit of additional content can be a welcome addition.
Returning to the roots of Assassin’s Creed
Ubisoft’s choice to bring Assassin’s Creed back to its core elements is a significant draw for fans who have been longing for the days of stealthy, well-plotted assassinations. Mirage aims to rekindle the essence of the franchise, and early glimpses suggest that Ubisoft has paid homage to its roots effectively. However, whether this leap of faith will safely land in the proverbial haystack remains to be seen, and that uncertainty adds an element of risk to pre-ordering.

Ultimately, whether pre-ordering Assassin’s Creed Mirage is worth it depends on individual preferences and risk tolerance. Fans who have been yearning for classic Assassin’s Creed content may find the pre-order bonus appealing, as it provides an extra reason to anticipate the game’s release. However, for those who prefer a more cautious approach and want to ensure the game meets their expectations, waiting for early reviews and player feedback might be a wiser choice.
