Assassin’s Creed Mirage is only a few months away, and at the Ubisoft Forward showcase, the company showed off a new story trailer along with an extended gameplay walkthrough.
The trailer details how Basim became one of the Hidden Ones, after an apparent rescue by their leader. It shows him following their teachings and questioning what it means to follow their orders. The story trailer was followed by a gameplay demonstration that takes place early in the game.
The demonstration showed Basim creating cover by pulling down a structure, which created an obstacle and dust cloud. Then he ran across the rooftops to lose the sight line of the guards. After reconnecting with the Hidden Ones, he was offered a suite of new tools to choose from, and went out to scout an area. After blending, in he began picking off guards to make the sky safe for his eagle companion. After spotting his target, he sat in wait, marking guards and taking them out quickly before moving in to assassinate his quarry. Finally, he ran back into the crowd disappeared.
