Assassin’s Creed Mirage plays like it used to in many ways – only the parkour gameplay quickly reaches its limits. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Yes, Basim moves a bit more elegantly than Eivor in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, but since both games share a nearly identical tech framework, the master assassin often glides over the rooftops of Baghdad rather ponderously.
And especially inconvenient: You have significantly less manual control over Basim’s actions than, for example, you had with Ezio in the very old Assassin’s Creeds.
This is hard to change even with mods, but at least a small fix drastically improves the parkour feeling in Mirage right now.
The mod with the poetic name (AC Mirage Eject Height and Sprint Speed Increase
) changes what the name already so programmatically reveals: Basim runs faster and jumps higher. Sounds unspectacular at first, but makes a big difference in practice.
The so-called Ejecting
or jumping off was for years the method, to give the parkour more pep If your assassin used to hang from a ledge, you could hop directly from it to the side or back to jump onto a crossbar or roof, for example, and bypass the slow I’m heaving my body over the edge
animation.
In Mirage, effective ejecting is limited. There must be a ledge near you, so the game will automatically hop there when you press the stick along with the parkour button.
The mod increases the jump height of these ejects and the result makes for much smoother movements:
How to install the mod?
Installing the mod is a bit complicated, but not difficult. Logically, the fix works only with the PC version, you will also need the tool CheatEngine.
Don’t let the name scare you, this doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with cheats or hacks, it just gives you the possibility to change certain modifiers during the game – in our case the eject height.
Let’s go through the steps:
- You download (CheatEngine) and install the tool.
- You suck the (Eject-Mod from Nexusmods) and unpack it.
- You start Assassin’s Creed Mirage normally via Ubisoft Connect.
- While the game is running, open CheatEngine, click
Open to process
in the top left corner and select the Mirage .exe. - After that click on the folder button next to
Open to process
and open the mod file. - Now you can manually enable and disable the Eject mod and the Sprint mod via toggle.
Both modifiers – sprint speed and eject height – work independently of each other.
We personally find running the mod too fast, so we leave the option disabled. You will have to repeat this process every time you start Mirage.
The advantage: If you don’t like the mod anymore, just leave CheatEngine off and you don’t have to move files back to undo the process.
