Highlights

  • Ubisoft introduces a secret NPC cat in the recent update of Assassin's Creed Mirage, delighting fans.
  • The update includes not only the much-anticipated Permadeath mode but also a special hidden character for players to uncover.
  • Players are thrilled to stumble upon a unique NPC cat dressed as the Hidden One, as a nod to previous cat-related surprises in the game.

With the latest update to Assassin's Creed Mirage, players not only got the highly requested Permadeath mode but also a surprise addition of a new hidden NPC wandering the streets of 9th century Baghdad. Mirage has been a refreshing departure from the expansive open-world settings of recent Assassin's Creed games. It has focused on stealth, action, and parkour, resonating well with both critics and gamers and becoming one of Ubisoft's top releases on the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Despite lacking the live service approach of earlier titles, Ubisoft ensures Mirage stays fresh with regular updates and patches. While there are no plans for DLC or expansions, Ubisoft has responded to fan requests by adding features post-launch. The addition of New Game Plus last December was followed by the recent inclusion of the Permadeath mode, accompanied by new cosmetic choices for Basim, such as outfits inspired by Bayek and Rayhan.

The most recent patch notes for Assassin's Creed Mirage hinted at a surprise NPC waiting to be discovered. The notes cleverly teased players to spot the new character, a special assassin cat, prowling the streets. Players were encouraged to snap a photo upon finding this feline figure, reminiscent of previous cat-related secrets in the game.

The reveal of this mysterious addition came from a user named Lieven, who shared the find in a Discord channel associated with content creator JorRaptor. After a brief clip of the encounter with the Hidden One cat, the official Assassin's Creed account confirmed the existence of this unique character, waiting to be stumbled upon in Ubisoft's rendition of 9th century Baghdad.

This isn't the first feline-related surprise in Assassin's Creed Mirage. While numerous wild cats roam Assassin's Creed: Mirage, one particularly stood out with an assassin's mark on its nose. This design isn't merely a nod to the game franchise; it pays tribute to a real-life cat owned by a fan who passed away before the game's release. The inclusion of this cat in the game serves as a touching homage to that devoted fan.
