Ubisoft has announced Assassin's Creed Mirage is getting a free update in December that will introduce a New Game Plus mode and a permadeath mode. The latter feature will be optional "across all difficulties", with more details on both modes said to be coming soon. While we don't know all the ins and outs of the modes, it's already quite easy to imagine how the introduction of permadeath will affect how you approach investigations and stealthy scenarios in Basim's adventure.
It would certainly raise the stakes if you're spotted by guards, or choose to engage in a fight out in the open. New Game Plus, on the other hand, is more of a question mark. I imagine you'll be able to relive the story all over again with all of the unlocked tools and gears you've acquired over time. But personally speaking, I can't see myself having the desire to want to start the adventure all over again. Given it's a more contained experience, I feel like I can explore all available avenues in one go, and I'm happy to move on. Still, if you need an excuse to do all of the investigations over again, having everything at your disposal from the get-go is sure to incentivize some to hit the streets of Baghdad again and make the most of all the tools and gear in any given situation.
