Assassin’s Creed Mirage is the latest instalment in the long and storied series where you play as a character who is inducted into an order of assassins. These games are notoriously long, so you might wonder how long it takes to beat AC Mirage.

During our time with the game, it seems Ubisoft’s statement about it being a shorted and more focused Assassin’s Creed game is true. AC Mirage has cut out a lot of bloat – cutting the likes of minigames and huge swathes of land to explore – which makes for a streamlined and coherent experience.

If you want more AC Mirage, we have guides covering several aspects of the game. Make sure you read our pieces on how to use Enkidu and the best skills to get in AC Mirage. Now, this is how long it takes to beat AC Mirage.

How long does it take to complete AC Mirage?

According to HowLongToBeat, AC Mirages takes around 12 hours to complete the main story only. This number lines up roughly with how long our playthrough took, which clocked in at around 15 hours. In our playthrough of the game, we took our time and did as much as we could alongside the main story. As we said, there are no minigames or other things to get distracted by other than side quests and contracts.

Throughout AC Mirage, you are confined to the city of Baghdad and the outskirts known as the Wilderness. There is some exploring to do, but the map size in general is smaller than Valhalla and previous titles. Other than this, you are looking at a time of 18 hours to do the main story and all side missions.

How long does it take to 100 percent AC Mirage?

According to HowLongToBeat, a full 100 percent completion of AC Mirage will take you about 24 hours. We didn’t complete everything in AC Mirage, but this timeline seems reasonable given how many contracts and gear there are to find dotted about the map.
