2. Update Windows

If your system isn’t updated regularly, there could be compatibility issues that can cause Assasin’s Creed Mirage to crash. To make sure that you have the latest available updates installed:

  1. On your keyboard, hit the Windows key, then type check for updates, then click Check for updates.

  2. Click Check for updates, and Windows will scan for any available updates.
  3. If there are available updates, Windows will automatically download them for you. Restart your computer for the update to take effect if needed.
  4. If there are no available updates, you’ll see You’re up to date like this.

Then try your Assasin’s Creed Mirage again to see if it still crashes. If the problem remains, please move on to the next fix.

3. Reinstall graphics card drivers

Outdated, incorrect, or missing graphic card drivers are also likely the culprit to your crashing Assasin’s Creed Mirage. So you need to make sure that you have the latest graphics card drivers installed for AC Mirage to run without crashing.

To make sure that the new driver installation is done right, you’ll first need to remove the old driver files. To do so:

  1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key and the R key at the same time, then type devmgmt.msc and hit Enter.
  2. Double-click to expand the Display adapters category, then right-click your display card and select Uninstall device.
  3. Tick the box for Attempt to remove the driver for this device and click Uninstall.
  4. Repeat the same to remove the driver for your other display card if you have one.
  5. Then update your graphics card driver.

There are mainly 2 ways to do so: manually or automatically.

Option 1: Update your graphics driver manually

If you’re a tech-savvy gamer, you can spend some time updating your GPU driver manually.

To do so, first, visit the website of your GPU manufacturer:

Then search for your GPU model. Note that you should only download the latest driver installer that’s compatible with your operating system. Once downloaded, open the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to update.

If you don’t have the time, patience or computer skills to update your video drivers manually, you can, instead, do it automatically with Driver Easy. Driver Easy will automatically recognize your system and find the correct drivers for your exact graphics card, and your Windows version and it will download and install them correctly:

  1. Download and install Driver Easy.
  2. Run Driver Easy and click the Scan Now button. Driver Easy will then scan your computer and detect any problem drivers.
  3. Click Update All to automatically download and install the correct version of all the drivers that are missing or out of date on your system. (This requires the Pro version – you’ll be prompted to upgrade when you click Update All. If you don’t want to pay for the Pro version, you can still download and install all the drivers you need with the free version; you just have to download them one at a time, and manually install them, the normal Windows way.)

When the display card drivers are installed successfully, run Assasin’s Creed Mirage again to see if it still crashes. If the problem persists, move on to the next fix below.

The Pro version of Driver Easy comes with full technical support. If you need assistance, please contact Driver Easy’s support team at support@drivereasy.com.

When power-hungry applications running in the background, or you have other software programs interfering with Epic Games Launcher or Ubisoft Connect, Assasin’s Creed Mirage may crash. So before you start gaming, make sure to close all non-essential applications.

  1. Right-click any space on the taskbar and select Task Manager.
  2. Select each resource-hogging application and click End Task to close them one by one.
  3. You should also pay extra attention to programs like anti-virus software, VPN software, P2P and file sharing software, and download accelerator or manager software, as these may also interfere with your games.
