I'm not entirely sure, but I think Mirage on the App Store is a trial version with the ability to buy the full version, which is why it's listed as free to play with micro transaction.

- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Ubisoft says they make AAAA games now, so probably at least $70 for the base game standard edition.
We don't know. If I guess, it will be a full priced 69 Dollar game with 100 Dollar special edition for preorder. Other than that, Ubisoft is desperate and they said they won't do this microtransaction shit they did before, so the integrity of the actual game is kept. I believe it when I see it, but that's what they said. They even want to release it on Steam without the Ubisoft launcher on PC. Hell thats an improvement!
If the game truly has no bullshit, then I might check it out. Didn't play an Assassins Creed since Black Flag on the Xbox 360. And I like Japan, so good oppurnity to hit me.
A word to the wise, as you say you don't normally buy games - do double check whether your Mac is new enough for the game. I don't know exactly how specs work on mac, but I would hazard a guess that anything older than, say, 2019, won't be able to play it.
Thanks mate.
I'm a little behind, but I completed AC Odyssey and that was just buy it and that's it. They had a cash shop for armor sets but it was completely unnecessary and I never even looked at it much less bought anything from it. So provided the releases after that are the same it's a "there is an MTX shop but the game is balanced without it" situation
The game is free to try and then you unlock it with an in app purchase. You get quite a few hours of gameplay without having to pay up front.
It is a fully fledged game though, not your typical mobile trash.
AC Shadows will likely have a similar model since it’s supposed to play on mobile as well.
