The game introduces an improved detection system for stealth encounters and re-introduces classic parkour moves like the corner swing, with faster freerunning than in previous titles.In a return to the series’ roots, Mirage follows the format of the original Assassin’s Creed game, alternating between missions at the Alamut fortress and assassination missions.
