Jonathan Dumont, Creative Director, has revealed that completing Assassin's Creed Mirage's main story will take approximately 30-40 hours. Adding in all the optional content could extend playtime by another 30-40 hours, for a total of roughly 80 hours. This estimate comes from an interview with journalist Genki, offering players a clearer picture of the game's time commitment.
Dumont previously compared Mirage to earlier titles like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. However, given the significant differences in length between those games, this comparison proved less helpful. Acknowledging the challenge of precisely estimating playtime in an open-world game, Dumont clarified that Mirage shares a similar scope to Origins. According to HowLongToBeat.com, Origins' main story takes around 30 hours, while completionists can easily spend over 80 hours.

For players concerned about excessively long games, Mirage appears to offer a more balanced experience. In contrast, Valhalla has faced criticism for its lengthy 60-hour main story and potential for over 150 hours of gameplay when all content is included. If Dumont's projections are accurate, Mirage provides a more manageable yet fulfilling adventure.
Mark your calendars! Assassin's Creed Mirage launches March 20th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
