Ubisoft has rolled out Title Update 1.0.7 for the Xbox, PlayStation, and PC versions of Assassin’s Creed Mirage, and with it comes a new game mode called Full Synchronization Challenge—a “permadeath” mode that challenges players to keep Basim alive and prevent him from committing any illegal actions (e.g. killing citizens, going outside of authorized map locations), lest they want to start the game all over again. The new update, which ranges from 1.94 to 5.31 GB in size, also introduces a Transmog feature that lets players wear any costume they own as an outfit, as well as a new, cat-related Easter egg.
Patch sizes:
- Xbox Series X|S: ~4.59 GB
- Xbox One: ~3.15 GB
- PlayStation 5: ~1.94 GB
- PlayStation 4: ~5.31 GB
- PC: ~4.85 GB
Full Synchronization Challenge notes:
- You can enable the Full Synchronization Challenge when starting a new game from the title screen.
- Full Synchronization Challenge cannot be enabled or disabled when the game has started.
- Cross-progression AND Cloud saves will be disabled when starting permadeath.
Full Synchronization Challenge rewards:
- Unlock a Talisman when you complete the game in easy mode.
- Unlock the Talisman and Rayhan costume in normal mode.
- Unlock all the above and 6 new dyes for existing outfits (Initiate, Zanj Uprising, Abbasid Knight, Hidden Ones, Rostam, Bayek) when completed in hard. (Please note; dyes can only be applied to these specific outfits).
