    A great port! AC4 and Rogue are even more compelling games as mobile experiences. I could never get into AC4 on PS4 but having these games on Switch is great way to explore their open worlds bit by bit...

    I really enjoyed this game, the sound was clearer than the ACL port on switch.
    I think the team that worked on rogue did really well on both the FPS and graphics.
    During the ship battles i noticed that there was little to no frame drop even with the particles and explosions. This game must have been tested thoroughly as it has a great finish to it.

    Two big games...Great miracle ports and great optimization for switch, a wonderful dream! ..much much better than ac3/liberation ports..30 solid fps like ps4 in our hands!!!!! Very good work Ubisoft!! Now we want Ezio Collection and (if possible) AC Unity!

    Stable 30fps performance on Black Flag with almost no graphics compromise.
    Ubisoft did learn from their AC3 **** on switch and made this AC4 way more optimized and you can just see the results! Just get it for the shanties !
    PS: 60fps mod available for the special switches ;) just google it!

    My experience for this game was way better than AC3 on Nintendo Switch. Frame rate is more stable than AC3, Better environment, gameplay, graphics and open world activity. But I kinda wonder why there's no background music for synchronization.

    This is one of the best ac games out. Both highlight naval combat in the most polished pirate simulation i have ever seen.

    I'd give it a 9, but unfortunately Rogue lacks the polish of Black Flag and has lots of glitches/hangups. It's a shame, because after playing through Rogue I can confidently say I legitimately enjoy it more than Black Flag. Even if I don't like the story as much, gameplay wise Rogue is a huge improvement over Black Flag. It's a criminally underlooked AC game.

    Rogue is really underrated and deserves to be on as many consoles as possible

    Amazing port! Graphics look phenomenal in docked or handheld mode! If youre a fan of AC Black Flag you will love this! One of my favorite games of all time! I've played through this campaign at least 3 X and as always its a swashbuckling fun time! Including Rogue is just the cherry on top as I'd probably pay $40 for black flag alone but I have also always wanted to be a pirate lol.Amazing port!

    My first time playing ACIV and wow, what an amazing port and game. I love all the support Nintendo Switch has been getting from Ubisoft and other third party developers. Looks amazing in both handheld and docked. Smooth frame rate and gorgeous visuals. Man, I love this generation.

    One of the best action/adventure experiences on the Switch to be sure, and in my opinion the best all-around Assassin's Creed experience pound for pound. In the Rebel Collection, you go from pirate, to liberator, to Assassin, to Templar. There's a LOT of variety when it comes to 'way of life' and exploring the intrigue of the underground societies of the Assassin Brotherhood and TemplarOne of the best action/adventure experiences on the Switch to be sure, and in my opinion the best all-around Assassin's Creed experience pound for pound. In the Rebel Collection, you go from pirate, to liberator, to Assassin, to Templar. There's a LOT of variety when it comes to 'way of life' and exploring the intrigue of the underground societies of the Assassin Brotherhood and Templar Order and their philosophies, and you will probably enjoy all these transitions and the diversity of range they offer.

    The gameplay between both games is mostly pretty uniform, but despite that, Rogue manages to improve upon Black Flag's formula and brings some unique add-ons to the experience and environments. Some improvements include military land-battles, reverse boarding, Assassin stalkers, double counters while fighting aboard enemy ships, the air rifle (possibly the single greatest piece of equipment in any AC), official hunt challenges, and much more. The only feature withheld from Rogue that was in Black Flag is underwater exploration, but that has a lot more to do with the environments than simply stripping content for the heck of it.

    That being said, the games run well on Switch and there are very little issues with framerate or bugs. It's a well-tailored port and one that will more than likely be enjoyed by any gamer with an appetite for adventure. If you've played Assassin's Creed before, but stopped after II or Brotherhood, or were thinking about getting into the franchise, but only have a Switch, I would personally recommend this as it's a delight to play and offers fun exploration, naval combat, nice all-around customization, interesting stories, great characters, and one of the best AC experiences, even today.    … Expand

    The best Assassins Creed game ever - Black Flag - made even better with the removal of microtransactions, portability, and the addition of AC Rogue. It’s a gorgeous port, too.

    Great game, with 2 big games and some mini stories included in black flag. Also the performance is quite good for hybrid device. Only one thing though, the side activities are repetitive and lacks incentive and I don't feel like playing it after some time, and that's cut the play time significantly.

    Amazing game, especially the Black Flag, which is easily one of the best games in the series. Rogue however, just feels bland compared to the Black Flag.

    What’s really striking about the two games in The Rebel Collection is that, like I said up top, unlike ACIII they’ve both aged fairly well. Both Black Flag and Rogue are excellent additions to your Switch library, and they’re well worth the dozens of hours you’ll get out of both.

    If you don’t mind encountering several glitches along the way, then you’re sure to have a blast with Assassin’s Creed: Rebel Collection on Switch – particularly with Black Flag which remains one of the best entries in the Assassin’s Creed series.

    The Rebel Collection is an all-around enjoyable and if you can understand that these games have some age to them, then I think anybody will find themselves enjoying it. Even those who have grown up with butter-smooth controls.
