New Assassin’s Creed Mirage is shorter than prior installments, yet the new investigation system can be tough. To defeat the five main targets, players must gather numerous clues and identify other members of the Order of the Ancients. To make this process easier, a complete walkthrough of all story missions is provided here.

The best thief in Anbar. How to steal an account book

After the opening cutscene, players should exit the house and follow Nihal to learn the basics of parkour. By mirroring Nihal’s movements, they will arrive at the market.

Using Eagle Vision reveals the money bag left by a merchant. Then players trail Nihal until she locates another target to steal. Mastering this mechanic leads toward the Dervishes. A cutscene plays again before proceeding to the warehouse to retrieve the ledger.

The passage is guarded by two sentries. Players learn how to stealthily cut enemies from the bushes and begin the task. An elevator to the rooftops on the left is preferable. The door to the intended room is locked, so the key must be found. The guard in the adjacent house possesses it. Eagle Vision helps identify the exact key holder.

Entry to the building is limited to a single doorway, requiring the guard to be eliminated. The simplest method is to leap from the roof. Enter, then ascend to the second floor to dispatch a second guard and seize the key. Return to the locked door, unlock it, and retrieve the book. Return to the Dervish and watch the cutscene.

How do you get to the Winter Palace?

Basim suggests a plan to obtain what the Invisibles claim to need. Speaking with Nihal starts the quest, and following her leads to the palace.

The door to the designated room is locked, so the key must be stolen again. Use Eagle Vision to locate the guard. The room is protected by a security detachment hiding in the bushes to avoid detection. With the key in hand, return and watch the video. Traverse the hallway to reach the chest room, where another cutscene begins.

When the scene ends, a quick escape is essential. Learn to sprint and move in a straight line. Jump over pool statues in time to dodge the closing gate and arrive safely home. The guards are on alert, so rooftops offer better cover.

    After the cutscene, head to the Dervish. A cutscene plays, then proceed to the objective marker on the pier. A final cutscene confirms Basim’s formal status as a student of the Invisibles.

    The road to Baghdad. How to find the killer office

    On arrival, Basim parts ways with Roshan and Fuladh. Time in Baghdad is brief, so the focus remains on reaching the office. The approach relies on a quick path: when near the point, switch to Eagle Vision and enable the first-person view. A yellow circle marks proximity, and a smaller circle indicates closeness. This helps pinpoint the office. The rooftop entry mirrors the earlier method.

    Find the rebels. How you can help Beshi

    Organize resistance against the Caliph by contacting the rebels. Beshi, an African ally near the port, awaits. Before speaking, sit on a bench and wait for nightfall. Beshi requests the rescue of his people held nearby.

    You can pursue different strategies, but the Eagle should be used first to reveal prisoner locations and highlight enemies. Stealth is ideal, but not mandatory. Remember to use Eagle Vision to see exploit opportunities, such as using a knife to sever a rope holding a heavy load over guards or throwing a knife into a red pot to trigger an explosion.

    Upon completion, Beshi grants a Power Coin usable to recruit rebels at certain locations. Along with power coins, science and trade coins exist for main and side missions, as well as theft from ordinary citizens.

    Follow Noor’s example. How to find an informant

    Before hunting for Noor, return to the office to share new information with Roshan. Then head toward the marker. Deshaun appears as a familiar face. A conversation with him yields an additional quest. The merchant needs special items that can be obtained by stealing. Each district marks limited items on the map with a golden hand. This quest is long and not central to the main story, so it is not rushed.

    How do you find out where Ali is being held?

    The rebel leader is imprisoned, but the exact location is unclear. The outpost at the Khorasan Gate is the place to listen in on guards. Entering from the roof provides an easy route to the area. To eavesdrop, players must blend in or hide. A haystack near the guards offers concealment; concentrate to discern the dialogue.

    Next, locate prisoner lists on the first floor, behind obstacles. Move along the outer wall, taking out guards one by one. Inside the room, grab the book and return to the office for updates. Ali’s location becomes known, allowing his rescue. Before starting, upgrade assassin gadgets and examine the contracts tapestry.
