When playing Assassin’s Creed Mirage, you will likely encounter the Soap Boiler’s District Gear Chest quite early on. It can be found in the Harbiyah region and rewards you with the required schematics to upgrade the Zanj Uprising Sword.
If you come across the Gear Chest in the Soap Boiler’s District of Assassin’s Creed Mirage and aren’t familiar with some of the game’s mechanics, you might have trouble reaching it. So, this AC Mirage guide aims to provide detailed instructions on getting the Soap Boiler’s District Gear Chest in the action-adventure game developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux.
AC Mirage Soap Boiler’s District Chest Location
The Soap Boiler’s District can be found in the southwestern area of Harbiyah, near the borders of Abbasiyah and the Round City. The Gear Chest is situated on the second floor of the central building, but it is in a Restricted Area heavily guarded by many guards. I’ve pinpointed the location of the treasure chest in the image below.
You can use your Eagle Vision to locate both Gear Chest and enemies guarding the place.

How To Get the Gear Chest in Soap Boiler’s District
During my playthrough, I first eliminated the rooftop guards before making my way to those on the ground level.Once the area is free of enemies, proceed towards the central building located in the Soap Boiler’s District.
You can reach a door on the second level from the outside, but it is blocked from the inside. Therefore, you will need to enter through the ground level. Once inside the building, you will see a ladder leading up to the next floor; however, it is obstructed by wooden panels. Although it may not be immediately apparent, you can quickly destroy these panels. Equip your Throwing Knives and throw one of them to destroy the board.

If you don’t have any Throwing Knives on you, search the area for Loot Chests. After you’ve destroyed the wooden panels, you can proceed to the next floor and loot the Gear Chest in Soap Boiler’s District.
You will be rewarded with the Zanj Uprising Sword or its Upgrade Schematic from this chest, which allows you to upgrade a powerful weapon that grants additional attack damage when you perform a perfect dodge.
Announced at Ubisoft Forward on September 10, 2022, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is the thirteenth installment in the Assassin’s Creed series. The action-adventure stealth game was released on October 5, 2023, for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Amazon Luna.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage takes place in 9th-century Baghdad and follows the story of Basim Ibn Ishaq, known from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Unlike its predecessor, Assassin’s Creed Mirage features reduced RPG elements, focusing on parkour, close-quarter combat, and stealth gameplay.
Set decades before Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, AC Mirage allows players to help Basim evolve from a street thief to a Hidden One. While smaller in size, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is a return to the AC series roots, allowing Basim to complete assassination missions throughout Baghdad, accompanied by his Eastern imperial eagle Enkidu. According to developers, the Assassin’s Creed Mirage main story takes 15-20 hours to complete, and it celebrates the 15th anniversary of the Assassin’s Creed franchise.
