If you were eager to play Assassin’s Creed Mirage on your iPhone 15 Pro or iPad Air or iPad Pro tablets with an M1 chip or newer, now’s your change.
The marquee game has arrived at the App Store, and will be available starting today. Due to time zones, it is already available in countries like Australia, New Zealand, India, and Singapore, with Europe to follow in a few more hours.
The game’s description in the App Store:
“In Assassin’s Creed® Mirage, you are Basim, a cunning street thief with nightmarish visions, seeking answers and justice. After an act of deadly retribution, Basim flees Baghdad and joins an ancient organization – The Hidden Ones. As he learns their mysterious rituals and powerful tenets, he will hone his unique abilities, discover his true nature, and come to understand a new Creed – one that will change his fate in ways he never could have imagined.”
Assassin’s Creed Mirage was first released for Xbox, PlayStation, and Windows in October.
The A17 Pro chip, which is available on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max units, allows for hardware-accelerated ray tracing and mesh shading. This hardware upgrade has allowed for more AAA games on the iPhone, such as multiple Resident Evil titles and Death Stranding Director’s Cut.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is available as something of a trial-ware title, and is free to play for 90 minutes on the iPhone and iPad. From there, users will be able to unlock the full version with a single $49.99 in-app purchase. The game will be 50 off off through June 20, allowing users to unlock unlimited gameplay for $24.99 for the first two weeks.
