How Long Is The Story in Assassin’s Creed Mirage?

Baghdad’s streets are full of adventure and will no doubt provide many hours of fun. But just how long is the story in Assassin’s Creed Mirage? Time to run some numbers.

Given that the last few AC titles were RPG-heavy and took over 100 hours of play it’s no wonder fans are looking forward to a shorter game this time. It looks like Ubisoft went with quality over quantity on this one. Let’s see those numbers.

How Long Does It Take To Complete Assassin’s Creed Mirage?

We estimate it will take approximately 12 hours to finish the Main Story or around 15 hours if you want to do side quests as well. For those of you who are completionists, you’ll have to put aside 24 hours of your time to finish the game. When asked how long is the story in Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Lead Producer Fabian Salomon shared that Ubisoft’s playtesters averaged around 20-23 hours of playtime. Of course, your experience may vary since not everyone plays in the same way. If your style is more direct, going in, swords blazing, it will probably take you less time to finish than by sneaking about. Since this is an Assassin’s Creed game, of course, it has some collectibles. 

How Many AC Mirage Collectibles Are There?

There are 8 different types of collectibles hidden in AC Mirage. Here is a list of all the collectibles –

• Gear Chests (weapons, armor, and blueprints)
• Dervis’ Artifacts (you pickpocket these and turn them in for a reward)
• Contracts (tasks that yield various rewards)
• Enigmas (notes that lead you to some rewards, like outfit dyes)
• Lost Books (they reward you a skill point, but grant you a special reward if you find all of them)
• Historical Sites (like Codex from older games, they grant you info on IRL Baghdad’s history)
• Tales of Baghdad (small side-quests, like World Events in Valhalla)
• Mysterious Shards (carried by the members of the Order, you exchange them for powerful gear)

Later in the game, you will come across a Cartographer. He can sell you maps with the locations of some of these collectibles.
