Starting at $49.99 at Amazon, Best Buy, Target and Walmart, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is playable on Xbox Series X and PS5, as well as the previous generations Xbox One and PS4 (and Windows PC), in two editions: Launch and Deluxe.
Wondering what the difference is between the two editions? The standard Launch Edition features the game and a DLC (downloadable content) expansion called “Forty Thieves Quest,” while the Deluxe Edition — which goes for $59.99 — comes with both the game and DLC, as well as a digital artbook, digital soundtrack and new Prince of Persia-inspired outfits and skins.
As for the game itself, Assassin’s Creed Mirage takes place during the Golden Age of Baghdad, a few decades before Valhalla. It’s a “coming-of-age story” that follows Basim Ibn Ishaq, played by Lee Majdoub, a street thief who learns the world is much bigger than himself. His mentor Roshan, played by Shohreh Aghdashloo, trains him to join the Hidden One, an order of Middle Eastern assassins.
The game is expected to also be playable for the Apple iPhone 15 sometime in early 2024. Mirage will be the first Assassin’s Creed game to be officially released, natively, for the premium smartphone.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage for Xbox and PlayStation is available now at all sorts of online retailers. The game goes for $49.99 for the Launch Edition and $59.99 for the Deluxe Edition.

After Pickle (singing The Who’s “Pinball Wizard”), Gazelle (Katy Perry’s “The One That Got Away”), Cow (Bruno Mars’ “Treasure”), S’more (Maroon 5’s “Moves Like Jagger”), and Diver (OneRepublic’s “I Ain’t Worried”) gave it their best shot, Diver was given the heave-ho.

When the helmet came off, the confetti fell, jaws dropped and Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules supervillain Tom Sandoval gave the crowd a wave.
Ken Jeong chose right for the second straight week. And with it, season 10 of Fox’s bizarre singing competition unmasked perhaps the “second-most hated person” in its history, notes Variety’s Michael Schneider, behind only disgraced former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani, who appeared in season seven.
If Jeong guessed right, he wasn’t the only one. Internet sleuths figured out the man behind the mask well ahead of the big reveal.
“So much fun,” Sandoval said of his experience on The Masked Singer. “Being able to come out here and perform behind the mask, not being judged, just being judged on my performance, it was really nice.”
Being a top TV villain, was it tough going on the show? “It was, but it was nice, I felt protected under the mask,” he continued. “This costume is incredible. There’s so many talented people here I feel honored to be part of it.”

Hosted by Nick Cannon, the latest season includes a 16-strong fleet of contestants disguised in extravagant costumes including a Husky, Royal Hen, Tiki, Hawk, Hibiscus and Anteater.
Sandoval (Diver) joins Anthony Anderson as Rubber Ducky and Demi Lovato as Anonymouse as season 10’s unmasked celebrities.
Nicole Scherzinger, Robin Thicke, Jeong and Jenny McCarthy return as judges for the latest season, which airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on Fox.
