Now here is a pleasant surprise. Ubisoft has just announced a new free DLC for Assassin’s Creed: Mirage, called Valley of Memory. Valley of Memory will be free to all owners of Mirage, and it will come out on PC on November 18th.
According to Ubi, this free DLC adds about six hours of new gameplay and story. The story happens before the ending of the main game and begins when Basim finds out his long-lost father might still be alive in AlUla. Wanting to know the truth, Basim sets out on a journey to find him. However, he soon discovers that the valley of AlUla is in danger from a group of robbers, and his father has gone missing.
Valley of Memory is also introducing improvements to the game that will apply whether you are playing in the AlUla region, or the main adventure in Baghdad. So, let’s take a closer look at them.
As the devs noted, the update will add replayable missions and challenges. After finishing any black box mission or contract in Assassin’s Creed Mirage or Valley of Memory, you’ll be able to play them again. You can access these missions through the “Animus Sequences” menu or directly in the game world. Each replay will come with special challenges that push you to play differently – for example, avoiding Eagle Vision, staying undetected, killing only your main target, or finishing within a time limit. By completing these new challenges, players can earn exclusive in-game rewards.
This update will also bring big improvements to the parkour system. Players can now turn on manual jumping, which lets them create their own cool and complex free-running moves that weren’t possible before. A new control system also makes it easier to move smoothly from one rooftop to another. On top of that, players can now customize side and back ejects. Before, Basim could only do these moves if there was a clear place to land or grab onto. Now, he can side or back eject anytime, no matter the landing spot. These updates will give players more freedom and creativity when parkouring through the city than ever before.
Not only that, but the game will now have two additional difficulty levels. You can also expect Skill and Tool Customization options. A new skill called Engineer 2 has been added to Basim’s skill tree. This will allow him to equip all level 1 modifications to his tools. You’ll also get a new level 3 modification to all Tools as well.
Enjoy!
