Assassin’s Creed Mirage still suffered from some bugs in our test. These will be removed with the first patch – here are the patch notes for 1.0.2.

If you download Assassin’s Creed Mirage, the Day 1 patch is included and updates your game to version 1.0.2. And what the patch notes reveal sounds like a pretty good idea: The update addresses some bugs that were criticised in the international reviews and also in our own test.

We gave the test version a deduction of 3 points because quest bugs occurred from time to time or the game crashed completely. This devaluation will remain until we are sure that these bugs are really fixed.

What’s in the Day 1 patch of AC Mirage?

We list a few of the most important changes, the complete patch notes can be found on page 2 of the article.

Fall Damage: Basim can throw enemies from roofs or ledges. Until now, it could happen that they did not take damage as intended. In the release version a deep fall now hurts appropriately.

Questmarker: Sometimes the markers disappeared after loading the game. Quite inconvenient! Now the game should guide you reliably to the goal.

Fancier takedowns: The animations for particularly spectacular assassination manoeuvres should now be smoother. Great, because the classic assassin gameplay is probably the game’s greatest strength

 

In addition, the patch 1.0.2. should fundamentally improve the stability of the game and fix numerous graphics glitches and minor bugs. Good news for those with less powerful computers, because AC Mirage doesn’t actually require a high-end PC!

What are your plans: Will you start your journey to Baghdad in Basim’s shoes right at the release on 5 October? Or will you wait with the compact spin-off until you get hold of it in a sale? Do you perhaps leave it completely cold because you prefer the role-playing parts? Let us know what you think in the comments.
