Assassin’s Creed Rebel Collection Switch Review - “UP SHE RISES!” 

Hey SwitchUp Family - Leave your best PIRATE joke below. There is footage of most aspects - in the top left corner I have added the current game name to keep you guys in the loop. Let me know what you think of this one and check out our Performance Review if you want more - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BjPF2fXG5-0.html Cheers guys, seeeeya! Mark

it baffles me that a port of an old game get touchscreen control for menus, but the new pokemon doesnt

Q: What has 12 arms, 12 legs, and 12 eyes? A: 12 pirates

Now I would really like FARCRY Batman Arkham Asylum/City Red Dead Redemption

That soundtrack for black flag is hypnotizing.

I’ve been playing for 1hr and the crispness is outstanding. Normally there’s blur drom the graphics having to be turned down but this game runs and looks like it was made for the switch. I’m honestly so amazed and taken back by how great it all works! Definitely run out and buy this one!

Black Flag is the best pirate themed game in the history of gaming, fight me XD

Now we need the Ezio Collection on the Switch

„Will this one crash in the rocks of a terrible port?“ Immediately subscribed

Assassins Creed - Why is the rum allways gone? Edition

I had no idea you could board the ships like that! It simply never occurred to me. Thanks!

Appropriate for the nature of the game: "Why is pirating so addictive? " "I dunno, why?" "Once ye lose yer first hand, ye get hooked!" Great review, super excited to dig into this on Switch.

That dive into knee-deep water made me laugh more than would make me appear to be sane. 😂 I'm sold on this one. Thank god for holiday bonuses!

I'll happily buy this again, IV is my favourite of the ac games, rogue was a nice addition to the story (felt more like an expansion but still a great time). I agree the animus sections are pretty guff 😂

The Shanties are awesome in this game. There are songs that date back to within the renaissance and are more period than many songs played at a Renaissance faire. I’m glad if you find and catch the collectible music sheets, that it presents you with the lyrics so you can see and hear how it is sung. For a game of parallel fantasy, it certainly has some actual educational value in some things where even a Google search is not as keen to bringing up the information. Particularly the shanties. They really did their due research for them.

Just thinking of getting this game for my Switch as it’s currently on offer in the online store. This review really helped. Looks like I’m about to have a lot of fun. Thanks.

Thanks for the thorough review...the US cart memory breakdown info was much appreciated!!👍🏾👍🏾

I still sing Leave Her Jonny all the time. The shanties and tavern music are so immersive. Different taverns play different songs depending what nation occupies them. BF is my second favorite AC game after Odessey. Rouge is a great bonus. Though perhaps after another playthrough on the Switch BF might regain its title.

Keep it up with the uploads! Hope your channel grows! Really enjoy your switch content

When this came out I was very excited seeing as I really enjoyed Black Flag on PS4 back in the day. This review made me buy it again because you guys are right, it runs exceptionally well on the Switch! I’m totally hooked (wink wink) again! It’s great it comes with Rogue and all the DLC as well because I’ve never played those before. This will keep me busy for a long time.

Picking this up now because of your review keep up the work

Awesome in depth review! I just ordered the game for my switch!

“Is that a helm in your pants?” Pirate: “Arrrrr it’s driving me nuts. 🥜 “

By far my favourite AC, will definitely be buying this again. Great review as always chaps well done ;)

and i would love a bioshock trilogy port too

I don't usually buy a game at launch. But when I do, it's after I've watched a SwitchUp review. So glad that it's a good port. Now I can sink some ships while on the toilet.

I actually liked the countering mechanics in the older ac games like these, it was special to the series, where you could go on massive massacres, it’s more like other rpg’s in odyssey and probably in the new Vikings one. It’s just different now

I love switch up reviews because it gives me all the answers I’m looking for. I play on a switch lite so it’s really important to me that I know how a game plays in handheld. Even when it’s a footnote, I appreciate you sharing how it runs and plays on small screen. Thanks

Thank you for the great review I can’t wait download it tonight.

Very impressive port for this one especially sound and visual, more stunning for portable of course

Great review and all but... 2:34 pirates had flying swords?! Arrr shiver me timbers!

Hi, I saw this game combo on sale at a store. I searched for reviews and the first reviewer was so bad. Did not do well on describing the gameplay. The feel overall was like: I’ve never played this series before and the controls are weird. Uggh. I was turned off and went home. Then I found your review. Damn, I wish I saw yours when I was there. You had a clear and consistent review. You provided detailed reasons for your scores. I appreciate that. You gave opinion on docked versus handheld on various situations. I’m trying to do more handheld than docked so an opinion of how this handles is awesome. I will be going back to pick this combo game. Great review. Keep at it.

This review made my mind up. Thanks for going into so much details. I’d only played as Ezio in Brotherhood on the Mac. I did really enjoy the story telling and difficulty progression of the game. Looking forward to playing this on the switch.

Nice combo and thanks for the recommendation

From what I can gather in the North American physical release, Assassins Creed 4 is on the cartridge but the DLC and Rogue requires a download. That being said the license is on the disc so there is no download code. As such if you buy a used copy you still get the DLC and AC: Rogue, you just have to download it from the Nintendo eshop.

Thanks for the good review. It pushed me over the edge to get the game. It would be cool if you could do a review of Ashen as well.

this game is 10/10 it looks stunning on the switch lite.. Just amazed at how good the game looks and plays.. Highly recommended

Currently on sale for US eshop only $20. I want to get a physical copy so I at least have Black Flag in the event the eshop goes down some day. The larger my digital library has gotten over the last few years the more I'm leaning into physical releases especially if they aren't that much more or are in some cases cheaper than the eShop. Looks like a great game and a good starting point for the series. I've never played an Assassin's Creed game but I think this will be my first with Black Flag.

Great reviews guys 👍 im really getting it 👌 for first time playing. Thanks for the amazing review keep it up

Gotta love that epic violin music! ♫ Like most people, I used to drink rhum and sing along the crew when I played this game :'D

currently playing sequence 4, have played this before on pc but not able to finished it. now i will. anywhere. hell yeah

That music makes me so nostalgic 😍

Thanks for the review. Great Work! Very Fancy! I put about 7 hours into AC3. I kinda promised myself I’d go back and finish that before buying this, but I might just have to break that promise.

How much did Blackbeard pay for his hook and his peg? An Arm and a leg

AC wasnt on my radar. I haven't really been a fan of AC but this review has made me very intrested. I'm gonna watch for a sale. Ty Switch up.

Awesome review. Will definitely get this in physical.

Wow, excellent review❤️

Have to say I just picked this game up last week and blown away at how great it looks! I’m hooked!

Great review, and also a nod of hat to mr Sid Mieir , nice touch. And this should be one of my favourite games, purely as i am ex royal navy sailor of 15 years. (We didnt have cannons when i was in tho...gutted)

Damn it! Just purchased this game for the 3rd time ....arrrrrgghhhhhh

I haven't played this game since the launch of the PS4 and didn't know how much I missed it until now, I'm definitely picking this up on the Switch.

I love when Mark says "Let's find out". I get excited

Hello everyone. I worked as a game tester for the rebel series and I'm glad you all love it. ❤️

My biggest issue with the game is not allowing me to upgrade to a different class of ship. I'd love to sail around as a terror in a man o' war

I agree with you Mark Black Flag is the best one... spent 10s of hours playing that on Wii U sinking ships an storming islands great game. Love the legendary ghost ships in the corners only ever managed to sink two of them. Need to sink all of them. Will pick this up to try sink them all

Always welcome a good Goonies reference. Black Flag is just an awesome game. Happily buying again. Great job

You have yourself a new fan, sir.

Someone needs to port over the the recent Deus Ex games!!! Just to add to the great ported RPGs the switch has going for it at the moment. Same with Fallout 3 and NV, never been more keen for a game then I am for The Outer Worlds, and the Outer Wilds would be an insane game to port over too.

Black Flag ran fine for me, but I saw a lot of glitches in Rogue that soured my experience with it. In rogue, ships ur fighting will randomly sink without giving u any rewards and there were many times where I would kill an enemy and another very far away would suddenly know to investigate

Hello Great video, just trying to understand, does this have all the side quests from the Xbox version? I think you were saying that it has less compared to ac titles now a days right?

I was lucky enough to get on Memorial weekend sale at gamestop for $20 dollars. Fantastic games

My favorite AC, preaps I missed it during the video, but in the physical how much of the game and DLCs is in the cartidge and how much needs to be downloaded?

Didn't know at first but Matt Ryan voiced Edward. He played John Constantine in the DC comics show and animated movies

I love this port, just started it today and i’m having a lot of fun. But next we need Ubi to do us a solid and port over Ezio Trilogy & Far Cry 3 please

Hey man tnx for a awesome review... 🙂🙂

Oh shit...How did I miss this coming out?!! Keep porting the Assassin's Creed games to Switch at this quality and I will happily play through them all again!

First time playing these games, very excited to see what’s up

"Knee-deep shallows" was super clever, I'd subscribe just for that if I weren't already

little anecdote here: i got AC4 when it was free from ubisoft last year and i played it on an older workstation laptop with a quadro card and it played at 30fps in 720p medium.. this looks pretty similar so im tempted to buy it for $40 just for the rest of the experience

Great review guys and I gotta agree this game plays sweet really enjoying it😁⚓⛵

Pirate Joke!!!! I’ve been waiting to tell this for years!!!! “ A pirate was on his ship and his watchman comes to him and says, "1 enemy ship on the horizon."The pirate captain says, "Bring me my red shirt, So the watchman brings his shirt and asks, "Why did you want your red shirt?" The captain says, "Because if i get injured they won't see and keep on fighting." So the watchman comes to him again a couple minutes later and says, “Captain, 20 enemy ships on the horizon." The pirate captain says, "Bring me my brown pants.

WHAT WILL WE DO WITH THE DRUNKEN SAILOR?

Awesome review... Black Flag is definitely the best Assassin's Creed game

The one thing you do lose gameplay wise is two running speeds. Other ports, you could half pull the trigger to run slower. Or full pull to run at full speed. It's a very small thing that most people won't notice. Price is a bit much. For me, now it cost $89.99. If you buy both games on any console with the freedom cry dlc, it would cost around $50-$65

Got it today and I'm so anxious to play it. ♥

Amazing how well this game seems to be in handheld mode. Characters fading away? Well hey, you're in a computer program after all. ;)

Loved AC till the one in Paris. Black Flag and 3 were probably the best due to my love of history. Great video sir.

What has 8 legs, 8 arms, and 8 eyes? 8 pirates. Think about it. in all seriousness, thanks for the review! Definitely gonna purchase!

Great review. NOW I NEEED IT

wow😍 remember when i play black flag. its somehow a really good assassins creed. the first you can dive. but what i like the most too is it shows that the switch is a really strong hardware, i mean the switch lite is just only a handheld and can play such games. that gives me hope they port games like final fantasy XIII ( lightning returns were nice). they port ffX /X two and ffXII i think there is a chance they port ( even if its just ffXII ) for beginning that were so good. i love my switch like no other console before. i like that u can upgrade it. and i prefer the switch ( not the lite ) b'cause one good thing is if you accidently ruin a joystick. its simple to buy a new one and not an entire switch. in my opinion the switch is one of the best console nintendo bring out. its really a revolution. i had this happyness that i had one like in n64 times. i can't play very much at home ( because of the time) but sometimes had to wait hours somewhere in the city so i often think ok just take the switch in the backpack. and my fear that a joystick could damaged is away b'cause you can just buy a new controller, i had anyway one for taking with me and a second. no really the design is very good and there coming lot more upgrades like a battery for charging etc. switch is upgrade able. i think this time nintendo did a really good work, i like my switch so much.

I am genuinely intrigued with this title. I used to be "that guy" that needed to changed the x/y axis. For some strange reason whenever i played Mass Effect 3 on Wii U i could not play inverted and have been playing "normal" ever since.

I know this is pretty late but does the rebel collection have an update or anything like that ? Or is it already updated out of the box

Never played Black Flag, wish I could. Thanks for the review.

Man I've been meaning to pick blag flag up again. I bought it on ps4 launch and never finished it and ended up selling it. I just happened to be browsing the switch online sales today and saw this. I didn't even know it existed! Downloaded it straight away and loving it. I only play the switch in handheld mode, but sweet Jesus it looks fantastic on the switch screen.

Sailing! pirates! treasure! and adventure! Everything what you want to experience is in this game. You won't regret it

This video is amazing 🤩

This set is on my list for switch. I love 3 and 4

I remember falling asleep to this game while sailing the seas

Got both these games for £15 on sale ATM ..im new to switch..amazed such a small device can play such demanding games 👍

Can you do everything in the game like In In the ps4 version or is there certain things you can't do cause the switch is small?

Why are pirates called pirates? Cuz they ARRR!! the second I learnt of ac3 on switch I dreamt of the day I could take Edward back out in the jackdaw on the go and then as if by magic just in time for my birthday it's released and physically as well! Looks to play so nicely too I can't wait!

Decided.to double dip and get these games on Switch. Cant wait to play this with my son, when he's a bit older.

it's so good but I can't get over how weak the water interaction is 😂 when you jump in and swim, it doesn't alter the water at all and overlays some splash effects

looks amazing today i gonna buy it

Why are pirates called pirates? Because they arrrr!

Just got this game & gonna try it out. Hopefully it meets my expectations.

I bought this game today. I'm going to have to have surgery to end the acid reflux. I hope the DLC adds even more to work on. I'm going ALL OUT. On April 14th I'm getting mega man battle network legacy collection for switch and PlayStation 4

I love games like this on the Switch. Picked up my copy today. Now if we could only get the Dead Space trilogy on here...

In the words of squidward: “Why couldnt the pirate get into the movie?” “Cause it was rated ARRGGHH!!!!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Am I the only one who wants this game if it has the multiplayer?? That shit was so fun
