  • There’s still plenty of fun to be had if this is your first set of Assassin’s Creed games, with the cities still managing to impress with their sense of scale and historical detail, but some of the dated gameplay elements and glitches may make other entries a better jumping off point. The Rebel Collection is a very fine alternative if you want slightly more modern interpretations of the series, with a seafaring bent. However, if you’re already a fan and are able to tolerate its foibles — old and new — Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection is an enjoyable trip into (video game) history and an easy recommendation.

  • Assassin’s Creed Revelations in particular is easily one of the best entries in the entire series. 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.

  • The epic storyline, gripping characters, and fantastic worldbuilding make for a trilogy of games that overcome any rough edges and instead deliver classic Assassin’s Creed gameplay you’ll find yourself wanting to return to over and over again.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection on Switch is nostalgic fun for fans of the Assassin’s Creed franchise. It allows you to replay all the iconic moments of Ezio’s rise to power from the comfort of your own bed, bathroom, airplane, or meeting at work. It’s also a great new way to share these games with friends who may not have played these games before. There was nothing better than the nostalgic trip of climbing the tower with your brother into the opening theme and title card. Now go collect those feathers so your mom isn’t sad anymore!

  • While the port to Nintendo's console isn't perfect, Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection still features impressive performance without too much compromise. The Switch version is a must-have for fans without other consoles, but some technical issues might push some players to the collection's PlayStation or Xbox version instead.

  • I find myself at an internal impasse with The Ezio Collection. On the one hand, I absolutely loved going back and experiencing the stories told throughout this incredible trilogy. I loved building up Monteriggioni and Roma again. I loved beating the tombs in AC: Brotherhood and getting full synchronization. On the other hand, it’s not a game I can genuinely recommend buying for full price. This is a collection made for truly diehard Ezio fans and the uninitiated.

  • Though a muscular and complete offering, it's difficult to believe that with the two of the series most highly regarded entries included in this package, that Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection didn't receive a far better remastering than what we have here. As it is, this trio of Ezio-era titles only boasts limited appeal to those who have already sampled its enduring setting and notable delights.

    Ezio’s trilogy helped build Assassin’s Creed into the giant franchise it is today thanks to its fantastic storytelling, amazing characters, and gorgeous world building. And while all of that is still here in The Ezio Collection, the lack of meaningful improvements and any sort of substantial bonus content make it a tough compilation to recommend.

    That's what I call masterpiece. Three of the best Assassin's Creed games out there.
