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, resulting in a total playtime of around 80 hours. This estimate comes from an interview with journalist Genki, offering players a clearer idea 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 the comparison less helpful. Acknowledging the difficulty of precisely measuring playtime in open-world games, Dumont clarified that Mirage shares a similar scope to Origins. According to HowLongToBeat.com, Origins' main story takes roughly 30 hours, while completionists may spend upwards of 80 hours.

For players worried about excessively long games, Mirage offers a more balanced experience. Valhalla, for example, faced criticism for its demanding 60-hour main story and potential for over 150 hours of total playtime. If Dumont's projections are accurate, Mirage provides a more manageable yet fulfilling adventure.
