Regrettably, Ubisoft seems to have left the Prince of Persia series in the dust for quite some time now. While there hasn’t been an official cancellation, it’s clear that the franchise isn’t a top priority for Ubisoft at the moment. However, this doesn’t mean they can’t capitalize on it. If you happen to be a long-time Prince of Persia fan, may I then direct your attention to the Sands Of Time nostalgia items that come with the Deluxe Edition of Assassin’s Creed Mirage?
What’s in the Deluxe Edition of Assassin’s Creed Mirage?
The Deluxe Edition comes loaded with various bonus content and cosmetics. Notably, there’s the Prince of Persia Deluxe Pack, which boasts an assortment of items: the Sand Outfit, the Desert Sands Initiate of Alamut outfit dye, the Dagger of Time, the Sand Sword, the Sand Horse, the Sand Eagle, and the Hourglass of Time talisman. For just an additional $10 over the standard edition, you’ll gain access to this treasure trove of bonus items, which also includes the official digital artbook and soundtrack.

How to unlock the Prince of Persia DLC bonus content
If you’re wondering how to unlock this Prince of Persia DLC bonus content, it’s a straightforward process. You’ll need to reach the Harbiyah Bureau in Baghdad for the first time, which occurs after the prologue where you leave Alamut for Baghdad after completing your Assassin training. During the Baghdad Bound mission, you’ll embark on a visit to the Hidden Ones’ Bureau in Harbiyah. Once inside the bureau, you’ll have a conversation with Roshan and Fuladh about what’s to come. When the cutscene ends, you’ll receive an in-game notification that reads “DLC Content Unlocked,” allowing you to equip and use these bonus items. At this point, the items should automatically appear in your inventory.
Is the Deluxe Edition of Assassin’s Creed Mirage worth it?
I mean, It’s not bad. There’s a total of 7 in-game items all based around the Prince of Persia aesthetic so if that’s something you’re into, and the design looks good to you, then go for it. The outfit and weapons aren’t purely cosmetic either, with each item having its own Prince of Persia time-slowing effects in some way or other. Personally, I think it looks neat but it’s not a deluxe pack I would go out of my way to buy. I think it’s better reserved for those of us who are especially fond of Prince of Persia.
