Update:
The error code 0x87e10bc6 that many users were having has now been fixed. Following the outrage from the fans, Microsoft Support has taken care of the issue, and now Assassin’s Creed Mirage will be able to launch on Xbox normally.
Original Story:
Assassin’s Creed Mirage is Ubisoft’s latest AAA release and has gathered plenty of positive reviews. With a smaller world, a focus on the IP’s roots, and a safe approach, the game delivers mixed results but a fun assassin experience.
Like its predecessor, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is available on both last and current-generation consoles. However, Xbox users have reported an error that makes the game unplayable on the platform.
Why it matters: This error has effectively rendered the game unplayable for many who purchased it on Xbox, leading to confusion and anger among fans.
Some users have taken to Reddit, highlighting the issue. Reddit user KPsea claims that Assassin’s Creed Mirage failed to launch on Xbox, throwing the error code 0x87e10bc6.
Redditors recommended the user reinstall the game, after which it did not appear in the library. This has led to frustration among fans, who had been waiting patiently to play the new Assassin’s Creed release.
According to Xbox, this error means that the game is unavailable in a certain region, unavailable in the game catalog, or temporarily unavailable. However, none of these should apply to Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
In this scenario, the latter seems to be the case, as many users have bought the game already. Luckily, the gaming giant has taken notice of this issue and assured fans that it is being investigated and further updates will be released soon.

As Xbox works to fix the issue, Reddit fans have not been too fond of their inability to play Assassin’s Creed Mirage. One user said that they woke up early before work to try the game. However, the error prevented the game from launching.
Some users have also mentioned that going offline can solve this issue, but this has led to mixed results. While this method has worked for some, others claim the issue still persists.
Nonetheless, Xbox has assured fans that the problem is being looked into. In the meantime, fans should try to avoid Assassin’s Creed Mirage spoilers to enjoy the game from a fresh perspective.
