Assassin’s Creed Mirage features a photo mode that is similar to the past few iterations. This mode allows players to tweak certain criteria and capture a snapshot to their liking. Here’s how you can access the photo mode:

For PC users: Press F3 on your keyboard (If you have a function key on your keyboard, press Fn+F3)

For Console users: Press the L3+R3 buttons on your controller (L3 and R3 are buttons beneath controller sticks)

After pressing the access key, players will be sent to the Photo Mode Interface in the game. In this mode, players can make many changes including angle adjustment, tweaking exposure triangle, filters, and more. If players want to make your picture otherworldly, these options are a boon for them. Here are some friendly tips while using the mode:

  • When framing a shot, use grids to create a perfect composition. For beginners, the rule of thirds might do the trick for them. Use the 3×3 grid and place the subject in two intersection points, to create a dramatic look.
  • Do not over-expose photos or use too much contrast slider.
  • Set the mood of the photo by using filters or color temperature. It is best to use warm temperatures for happy moments, while a cool tone makes it more gloomy. 
  • Try to angle the photos properly to create a good composition.
  • Do not zoom in too much, so that point of interest is lost.
  • Timing is key, instantly go to the photo mode when finding a great moment.

Once you are done setting the parameters, simply press Space to save the photo. For PlayStation players, use the X button and for Xbox users, press the A button. That’s how players can use the Photo Mode included with Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
