Jonathan Dumont, Creative Director, has revealed that completing Assassin's Creed Mirage's main story will take approximately 30-40 hours. Adding in all optional content could double that playtime, resulting in a total estimated playtime of around 60-80 hours. This information 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 length variations between those games, this comparison proved less helpful. Acknowledging the challenges of quantifying open-world game length, Dumont clarified that Mirage shares a similar scope to Origins. According to HowLongToBeat.com, Origins' main story takes around 30 hours, with completionists potentially investing over 80 hours.

For players concerned about excessively long games, Mirage offers a more balanced experience. In contrast to Valhalla, which faced criticism for its lengthy 60-hour main story and potentially 150-hour completion time, Mirage's estimated playtime suggests a more focused yet rewarding journey. If Dumont's projections are accurate, Mirage provides a satisfying experience without an overwhelming time commitment.
Mark your calendars—Assassin's Creed Mirage launches March 20th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
