The game can be played with voiceover in classical Arabic.
Assassin's Creed Mirage, out today from Ubisoft, is designed to transport players to 9th century Baghdad. It is an unabashed celebration of Arab culture and the Golden Age of Islam, its developers tell Axios., by contrast, puts players in the boots of fictional Arab assassin Basim Ibn Ishaq, as he sneaks across rooftops, slips through crowded streets and hunts members of an enemy order.
For example, a character in Mirage will say لجنينا مالاً أكثر لو جلبنا التمر إلى هجر, which translates in English to "We would make more money exporting dates in Hajar." Mirage also includes the Islamic call to prayer, or azan , though it is heard only once, not five times, per in-game day, which lasts about 15 minutes. It needed "to be a real one, not like a kind of distant sound," Sala said.
