Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection Reviews
At the end of the day, Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection is a great collection of great games. Games most of us have already played. But the Switch is perfect for replaying exactly those kinds of games again. Borderlands, Baldur’s Gate, Dying Light, even other Assassin’s Creed games already. I’ve been waiting way too long for this collection to finally release, and I’m very happy that it turned out as well as it did.
For now, the question is: is the collection worth a purchase? Yes. A very thick fat yes even. The series is nicely polished and still fun to play.

Three unforgettable adventures that you can now enjoy in ports that perform very well and offer some improvements in their jump to Nintendo Switch, such as larger texts when playing on a laptop. Of course, there is no new content, nor have the graphics or control been revised since the previous edition of 2016.

There is no doubt that Ezio is one of the most charismatic heroes in video games and his adventures are soaked up. Of course they accuse the passage of time, but the pack is a collection of imperishable adventures.

Three games for the price of one is a great buy, but be prepared for shoddy looking characters.
Assassin's Creed returns with the trilogy that featured one of the most charismatic videogame characters and made the saga great. Enhanced graphics for this new generation of consoles, but Ubisoft could have done a much better job with thisremastered version.

Ezio Auditore, one of the most charismatic characters of recent times, is back with an essential compilation... for those who have not played it yet.

While there is definitely nothing groundbreaking about these remasters, Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection is the perfect excuse to play through these fantastic gems of the last generation all over again.
A great reintroduction to what are arguably the most iconic games in the Assassin's Creed franchise. The Switch Edition allows for anyone to play the game the way they want; TV, handheld, or with the kickstand. Each game looks great however you want to play.
The Ezio Collection is a great bundle with three great games, but that's really all it is. Newer fans of Assassin's Creed that have missed out should absolutely check this out but fans that experienced it years ago really don't have much of a reason to pick this up.
Here are two excellent swashbuckling epics ported to Nintendo's console in fine fashion.
The biggest draw for replaying Ezio's story in Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection on Nintendo Switch is having the option to play on the go. There are only a few minor sacrifices that come with playing the handheld versions of each game, but these are acceptable changes for being able to take The Ezio Collection anywhere. For anyone new to Ezio's story, or those that want to relive his three adventures, Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection is a great set of games that have been optimized for the Nintendo Switch.
Despite everything, it remains a great deal for those who would have missed the boat at the time or for the hardcore fans who would like to revive the whole story of Ezio while waiting for the real next episode.

Assassin’s Creed Ezio Collection is a great release. Having the ability to play arguably three of the best games in the Assassin’s Creed universe on a current generation console is brilliant, although don’t expect much of a significant impact in terms of upgrades for gameplay or visuals. Improved upon? Yes. Reinvented and completely remastered? Not really. Still worth the money, though.
Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection assembles the complete exploits of what many consider to be the best character in Assassin’s Creed franchise.
I know I'm often critical of big budget blockbusters, but the Assassin's Creed series has always been one I've enjoyed because of that historical context. This specific package of games has clearly been designed to fill a gap in Ubisoft's schedule for the series. It shows that none of the main Assassin's Creed games are going to age particularly well, but it also does a good job of highlighting - when freed of the expectations that come with being a blockbuster - that the real strengths of the series are far more subtle than the graphics or size of the cities that it renders.
Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection offers three excellent games in one single package, unfortunately it also does this at the expense of stripping out the multiplayer from game.
A solid collection of games that offer minimal improvements that struggle to justify their repurchase.
This Switch release certainly has some drawbacks, and it's arguable that a straight port of the original games at a higher resolution might have yielded better results than this down-port of the remasters, but the net result remains positive. Performance is overall a significant improvement over the original releases and still a superior way to play. It's unfortunate that Ubisoft has decided to work their way backwards through the original Assassin's Creed story arc with their Switch releases, but even if you haven't played the original, this trilogy holds up incredibly on its own.
