OWO and Ubisoft have partnered to bring physical sensations to Ubisoft's game portfolio. The collaboration begins with Assassin's Creed Mirage, the latest installment in the popular franchise, with a haptic suit that promises to "incorporate some exclusive sensations never felt before."

　　Via the OWO Haptic Gaming System exclusive to Assassin's Creed Mirage Edition, players will join Basim, a street thief plagued by visions, as he seeks answers and justice--and be able to experience the impacts felt by the in-game avatar. The suit will also feature an exclusive ACM skin resembling the character's outfit. Initially, the ACM Edition will be sold exclusively on OWO's official website. Later, it will be available as a bundle with the Assassin's Creed Mirage game through various retailers.
