Jonathan Dumont, Creative Director, has revealed that completing Assassin's Creed Mirage's main story will take approximately 30-40 hours. Adding in all optional content could extend playtime by another 30-40 hours, for a total of roughly 80 hours. This estimate comes from an interview with journalist Genki, offering players a clearer picture of the game's length.
Dumont previously compared Mirage to earlier titles like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. However, these games vary greatly in length, making direct comparisons less helpful. Acknowledging the challenges of quantifying playtime in an open-world game, Dumont clarified that Mirage is closer in scope to Origins. According to HowLongToBeat.com, Origins' main story takes around 30 hours, while completionists may spend upwards of 80 hours.

For players worried about an overly long game, Mirage appears to offer a more balanced experience. In contrast, Valhalla faced criticism for its lengthy 60-hour main story and potential 150-hour completion time. If Dumont's projections are accurate, Mirage provides a more manageable yet fulfilling journey.
