What’s New in Assassin’s Creed Mirage Title Update 1.1.0 Valley of Mirage DLC

New Free Content

The Assassin’s Creed Mirage Valley of Memory DLC is a free update that sends Basim on a new quest. He’s heard rumors that his father might still be alive and travels to AlUla – a beautiful region filled with secrets, old ruins, and lush oases – to investigate. To start the adventure, players need to complete the “Head of the Snake” mission. New players can even jump straight into this content from the game’s main menu.

Players will find hours of things to do in the AlUla region, with a mix of familiar and new activities. These include side quests suitable for all ages, special world events, work contracts, and completely new content. Two of these new additions are ‘Stolen Goods,’ where you’ll steal maps from bandits, and ‘Oud Melodies,’ which involves collecting musical fragments by completing parkour challenges.

Gameplay Improvements

Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s update 1.1.0 brings several key improvements to gameplay. Players can now choose to perform free jumps by pressing a button, giving them more control. Basim can also perform side and back ejects even when there isn’t a clear landing spot, as long as he has something to grab onto. You can switch between “Free” mode for full control and “Safe” mode for guaranteed landings.

The Valley of Memory DLC for Assassin’s Creed Mirage adds replayable missions called Animus Sequences. Completing these challenging missions earns you rewards, like Animus Mods. These mods automatically refill your tools and resources, but they can only be used within the DLC content or when starting a new game.

The game now features two new difficulty levels: Hardened Assassin, which falls between the standard Assassin and Master Assassin difficulties, and Ultra Hardened, the most challenging difficulty yet. Players can also create a custom difficulty setting to personalize their experience. Additionally, the DLC introduces tier 3 upgrades for several tools: Throwing Knives now explode, Smoke Bombs dissolve corpses with corrosive gas, Blow Darts can penetrate heavy armor, Noisemakers put enemies to sleep, and Traps can cause enemies to attack each other.

You can find a detailed list of all the changes and new features in the patch notes below.

Details about the Valley of Memory update for Assassin’s Creed Mirage were shared in a post on the r/assassinscreed subreddit.

Okay, huge news for Assassin’s Creed fans! It looks like we finally have a release date for Assassin’s Creed: Shadows on the new Nintendo Switch 2 – so exciting! Also, it’s a bit sad to hear that the former lead on the series was asked to leave Ubisoft. On a brighter note, there’s a free update 1.1.0 for Assassin’s Creed Mirage with a new Valley of Memory DLC, which I’m really curious about. What do you all think about everything?
