Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts Super Bowl Trailer Introduces Pete Davidson’s Mirage
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is poised to be one of this summer’s biggest blockbusters, and a new TV spot for the movie arrived during the Super Bowl 57 broadcast on Sunday. The commercial focuses on a new Autobot, Mirage, who transforms from a Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3.8. He is voiced by Pete Davidson.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts introduces new Transformers to the movie universe, including the Maximals, Predacons, and Terrorcons, who join in the fight on Earth with the Autobots and Decepticons.
Rise of the Beasts was pushed back by a year due to the pandemic and is now slated to hit theaters on June 9, 2023. Michael Bay, who directed five Transformers movies dating back to 2007, is a producer on the new film, which is directed by Steven Caple Jr (Creed II).

Assassin’s Creed Mirage is smaller in scale because the fans wanted it

Assassin’s Creed Mirage, set to release some time this year, promises to be smaller than the last few games, and fans of the series are the ones to thank for it.
Revealed in September last year (after a series of leaks), Assassin’s Creed Mirage was a welcome announcement among fans of the series. The last few iterations like Valhalla and Odyssey moved the games more towards the RPG genre rather than the stealth-focused gameplay the first game brought to the table. But Mirage is going to the series roots, and according to a recent interview from GamesRadar with Ubisoft creative director Stéphane Boudon, part of the reasoning behind scaling down is thanks to the fans.
“Mirage’s creation has been the convergence of several inputs,” Boudon said. “Of course, the first one comes from our community: Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla they are all great games with the promise to live an epic journey in a strong fantasy. Their scopes have been calibrated to fulfil those ambitions as they all embrace the RPG mechanics.

Baghdad will be “one of the main characters” in a “more intimate” Assassin’s Creed Mirage, say Ubisoft

I’m playing Assassin’s Creed Valhalla right now, and it’s too bloody big. This is my second stint, jumping back in after playing for 14 hours when it came out in 2020 then abandoning it – and I’m beginning to remember why. It’s a pretty but largely empty-feeling time, with woefully repetitive mission design and characters I only have a passive interest in. It’s good, therefore, to see Assassin’s Creed Mirage creative director Stéphane Boudon make more noises about how the next Creed game will be smaller and “more intimate”.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage release date speculation, news, and gameplay

The Assassin’s Creed Mirage release date may indeed be as mysterious as the assassins themselves. We know that Mirage is an homage to the original Assassin’s Creed games, bringing back the stealth-focused gameplay in a densely populated Middle-Eastern city. While it’s still an action-adventure game with a strong narrative focus, long-time Assassin’s Creed players will be reminded of Ezio’s adventures rather than Eivor’s.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage, which was announced in September 2022, is part of Ubisoft’s larger Assassin’s Creed series. Following the release of Valhalla back in 2020, it’s the thirteenth major instalment. Like other AC games, Mirage is all about fascinating historical settings, intriguing characters, and sneakiness – something that will hopefully place Mirage among the best PC games when it eventually releases. Whether you’re a veteran assassin or new to stealth games, here’s everything we know about Assassin’s Creed Mirage.

Hitman rules, and Ubisoft needs to take note for Assassin’s Creed Mirage (and beyond)

I can’t wait to get murderous in ninth-century Baghdad when Assassin’s Creed Mirage arrives next year, but I fear it might be leaning a bit too hard on the first installment of the long-running franchise.
As fans await the next major Assassin’s Creed release – now turned into an expansive open-world RPG saga – Ubisoft has chosen to throw veterans a bone with Mirage, which promises a refreshed take on the original, classic AC formula. Problem is… that original formula wasn’t super solid to begin with and certainly doesn’t hold up anymore. Sheathe your curved swords, please. Just give me a few more paragraphs.
Assassin’s Creed was a spectacular multiplatform release of the early PS3/360 era. Even before it hit shelves, we were amazed by Ubisoft’s brand-new Anvil engine, all the reactive parkour and climbing, and those bustling crowds in 12th century Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus. And it didn’t disappoint once it was out in the wild (even though some critics and players were quick to point out a repetitive overall structure that undermined the potential of its lively world).
