Probably because they can fill one cartirdge with III?
Ezio Collection is more than 16 GB.
Kind of wish that so many websites didn't sort of spoil what would be revealed during an upcoming Direct. Granted, this and Spyro were somewhat expected picks, but
would have been something I would have been surprised to see.
the Danganronpa trilogy
would have been something I would have been surprised to see.
Yes?
Ezio Collection is already out on PS4 and One
Rogue too
III and Liberation were the next to get the remastered treatment.
hence the "why tho?" do they see any significant sales potential in a standalone remaster of III considering?
Cool, yet another game announced for all plattaforms that is actually coming to switch, but the marketing hide this fact for reasons. Congrats to everyone involved.
Nintendo will forever be cursed with only having Kenway Saga games on their home systems.
Same here. I really enjoyed the Revolutionary War setting.
They'll probably throw the older remasters on Switch too eventually after this sells. Ubi loves their catalog ports on the platform (Rayman Legends, South Park 1-2, Child of Light, Valiant Hearts, etc).
Gives me a lot of nostalgia. Love the Ubisoft games around that period.
Probably also means that it won't be the only AC coming to Switch, otherwise they would have announced it last week alongside the other platforms.
Very happy to see the clearest confirmation yet that this is coming to the Switch! Now all I want to see confirmed is that everything in the "set" will be included on the cartridge.
What does that have to do with this thread?
They aren't releasing Brotherhood or Syndicate.
Honestly ... Ubi must be aware that the view on AC 3 is not really good.
Black Flag had a Wii U port, iirc. Wish they would've gone with that ... or even Rogue. Both are better than 3.
Brotherhood had a cool setting and a great multiplayer mode. III has nothing.
I haven't played Syndicate, though, so I don't care about that one :P
Expecting the same. We'll probably see Ezio Trilogy, Rogue Remastered and maybe IV Remastered too.
Brotherhood and Syndicate are both far better games than III though.
3's MP was the pinnacle of AC MP.
Also Brotherhood was an asset flip with a nonsensical story. 3 has the best setting in the series and an amazing character dynamic in Connor and Haytham.
It's what's coming to the other platforms next.
They might do further games in future but those would be isolated Switch releases. With III and Liberation coming to all platforms Ubisoft can at least guarantee some synchronicity when it comes to word of mouth.
I think it'll probably do okay. At a minimum it's the first major AC game to be playable on handheld - Bloodlines and Liberation were both limited and short compared to the main console releases. It probably doesn't have to sell that much to be worth Ubisoft's time porting it.
They should go straight for Watch_Dogs 2. It should be within the Switch's capabilities and would comfortably be the most technically ambitious third party open world game on the system.
They probably already plan to port the Ezio trilogy, but this gives them the opportunity to sell the same product at the same time across all platforms, which they wouldn't get with the Ezio trilogy.
What games appeared on Wii U isn't relevant to Switch. Only a tiny fraction of Wii U owners bought ACIII, and that tiny fraction represent an even smaller portion of Switch owners. There's probably significantly more overlap between Odyssey season pass holders and Switch owners than there is between ACIII Wii U owners and Switch owners.
