Assassin's Creed Mirage Story: How Long To Beat

Wondering how long it will take the average player to beat Assassin's Creed Mirage when it releases for PC and consoles on 12 October 2023? Then we've got you covered!

As the 13th mainline entry in the Assassin's Creed franchise, Mirage takes players to the "Golden Age of Baghdad," leaping into the boots of the protagonist Basim. The game is described as a story-driven experience, and we will tell you exactly how long you can expect to take to complete its story and the time it should take for completionists!

How Long To Complete Assassin's Creed Mirage

Assassin's Creed Mirage is much shorter than its predecessors (Valhalla and Odyssey). According to developer Ubisoft Bordeaux, Assassin's Creed Mirage's story will take the average player between 20 and 23 hours to finish. Those who rush the game can complete it in roughly 20 hours (or probably much less when speedrunners get involved), and completionists who do and explore everything can expect up to 30 hours of content.

That's a stark contrast to Valhalla and Odyssey. Check out some average numbers from the fantastic How Long To Beat site for the previous two mainline Assassin's Creed games below:

• Valhalla main story: 61 hours 27 minutes
• Valhalla completionists: 148 hours 27 minutes
• Odyssey main story: 45 hours 21 minutes
• Odyssey completionists: 148 hours 46 minutes

YouTuber Julien Chieze interviewed the Lead Producer of Assassin's Creed Mirage at Ubisoft Bordeaux, Fabian Salomon, who explained:

Given that we do a lot of playtesting internally at Ubisoft, it's part of our process, we really want to get as close as possible to the players, so we'll say that the latest playtimes we've received average at around 20-23 hours. That can go up to 25-30 hours for the completionists, and we'll say that those who will be rushing the game will be around 20 hours.

So there you have it, the number of hours it should take to beat Assassin's Creed Mirage's story and how long completionists will take to finish everything. Remember, this is an estimated time thanks to internal testing, so it will most likely vary wildly depending on player skill. If anything changes or official player averages become available, we will endeavor to update this article.
