Assassin's Creed Anniversary 'Mega Bundle' Includes Six Games, Out Now On Switch

I wonder how much this bundle saves... time to whip out the calculator!

I bought physical editions of 2 and 4 for 20$ each (Amazon sales), 3 was 15 (Walmart clearance).

I'm a fan of that AC era, and I'm glad to have them for my switch, but I wouldn't have paid 100$ for the set.

I got everything for 47.57 bought separately. I paid 52.42 less then this awesome package.

@ModdedInkling it saves nothing. It cost about 40-50 more then buying separately.

Assassin's Creed games are on sale constantly so seems weird to only save $20 on a mass bundle like this. Be significantly cheaper to just watch for the every other week Ubisoft sale.

Well, if someone decides to buy it, and they have more codes due to the game in this bundle, I'd be happy to buy it. I don't have many games.

I bought an ac bundle on sale for Xbox for 24 bucks which included black flag, syndicate. And rogue. If you're looking to get an ac game/ bundle (or any ubi game) just know that you can get steep discounts

Stick it all on a cart with no additional download and I'll give you £30 for it. Go!

Let's be honest, 95% of all Ubisoft games get a price reduction within 2 weeks of release if not sooner these days.

That Switch tax for inferior versions in full effect.
AC3 isn't even included? So weird.

@Immovablegamer6669 To be fair, that's with some heavy discounts, and this bundle will probably go for at least 50% off at some point.

Interestingly, all three packs are on sale in the uk eShop, so if you buy them now, it’s £41.97, somewhat cheaper than the £100! I have just bought the Ezio collection as I was waiting for it to be on sale as I couldn’t justify a £45 price point.

Of course they just finally knocked AC3 down to 75% off and got me to buy it before releasing this, though I have no interest in playing 4 again anyway, so I guess no huge loss.

Headsup, like others have noted it’s cheaper to get these games individually physically new than buying this bundle digitally. Getting them physical should cost between €30 and €60 total depending on sales and time of year:

I know this is an Ubisoft Store thing but am I in the minority when I say I enjoy having games individually? Collections are cool but I’d rather select a game from my switch menu as individual titles. I wish they offered them that way cough cough Black Flag

That's a lot of very large games, what does all that add up to, like 100GB of file space?

I’d consider paying $150 or so to have it all on a 100GB cart. The more games on fewer carts, the better.

Hell, I’d have been tempted to grab the currently available “physical” releases if they hadn’t been handled in such a monumentally stupid way by gatekeeping the other games via “free DLC” which is actually much worse than doing so behind a “software update”, because unlike DLC, which relies on the eShop (and an internet connection), a patch can be backed up to another console for safekeeping (and can be used long after the eShop goes kaput).

@ketrac yep ACIII Remastered is included as it is bundled with ACIII Liberation.

On a side note these games are not hard to find on Switch on a deep discount already. And it's really odd that this is a bundle celebrating the original era of Assassin's Creed without including the original. And if you're on Steam enough the original Assassin's Creeds from 1 to Unity are normally discounted to $8-10 a pop almost monthly. So if you're a Steam Deck user or have a decent laptop it's not hard to get these games if you're just patient enough and get to also enjoy Assassin's Creed 1 and Assassin's Creed Unity as well.

Though if you just want to play the Ezio Trilogy and the Kenway Saga then this is not a bad collection at $99 (especially if your only way to play them is on Switch). That's roughly $12.50 per-game and they're bursting with content (excluding Liberty and Rouge). Not a bad deal, but I'm sure deal hunters can find these games at a substantially decreased cost.

@Wexter You're right about AC3. I have no reading comprehension on fridays. That's my excuse.

I feel like this is being added simply to put it on sale during the holidays. At 50% off it’ll look like a steal.

It'll be on sale for $40 in about 2-3 months.

@Divide_and_Wander I'd say it's a great amount of content for 50% off, if you've never dipped into Assassin's Creed before.
Played all of them, up to Odyssey, which I'm grinding away at.

@ketrac that's okay my friend it happens to all of us! For me that's Sundays!

@FishyS What do you mean gritty? They're mature titles, but not in the Doom splatterfest way.

Eh, I just don't like buying games from companies with such a detailed history of letting sex assaults go free, no matter how good the bundle is.

The switch tax really has me second guessing buying anymore Nintendo consoles no matter how great they are. Steam Deck might be my next portable console instead of a Switch 2 or pro or whatever the next one is.

I don’t even think I knew or realized there were 6 AC games on Switch. 😬

@FishyS Games are so old even a toaster could run them, so try 2 the next time it's on PC sale?

@MrMichaelJames On third party games that have already been discounted to hell it's really annoying.
That's the thing though, a lot of people have an Xbox or a PS as main console. Those who only have Switch don't really have a choice. Seen the newest Skyrim?

@FishyS I'd recommend the Ezio Collection, it has the most connected story and the most charisma in the series. I'm pretty sure you will enjoy it.

I'd really love to get AC1, Syndicate, and Unity to have all the classic ACs available

Ubisoft games are not worth that much. Company themselves devalues them as such. Just wait for a steeper sale, particularly of the individual releases. 100 Dollars/Pounds is too much.

@Mando44646 AC1 is so bad compared to 2, but I understand your sentiment. Getting Unity and Syndicate running on Switch would be a nightmare, though. Both Paris and London are filled with stuff, removing details for performance would really impact the "feel" of both.

@ketrac Paris is an amazing and probably the most realized location in AC. If any game deserves a remaster (not remake as I think AC1 deserves that the most) it's Unity! Work out the remaining bugs and kinks and the game would be amazing!!! Too bad the story attached to Unity does not match it's gameplay and environment quality... But that's a different discussion. Maybe on the Switch 2 we'll get Unity and Syndicate.

@Wexter I'm one of those lucky ones who didn't play Unity until it was fixed. Enjoyed it more than Syndicate. Finished Origins with dlc and now on Odyssey - so much bloat crap content It's a chore.

@ketrac I'm a Greco-Roman nerd so I enjoyed Odyssey a fair bit... But yeah it's full of bloat. I did enjoy Origins a lot!!! On Valhalla right now and I'm enjoying it more than Odyssey, but it's also very bloat heavy. I've read that Mirage will be more like Classic-Creed and Codename Red (Japan) will be RPG-Creed. Not sure how I feel about that, but I'm now hyped for Mirage!

@Wexter I also want more focused experiences. Problem is Ubisoft overall though, after the revelations last year, I don't really want to give that company money.
Mario Rabbits looks freaking awesome, though. Seems to be a ton of passion in that project, despite the corporate overlords being buttfaces.

Since we're almost going off-topic, I'll add something Nintendo spesific; I really wish they'd compete a bit on console specs. They could sell so much more third party content if they did. My non-qualifications tell me they should sell enough software doing that, to make up for what they don't make on selling a low power system at a profit.
Sell games! Many games!

Have a nice weekend.

I don't like violent games, but I do love history and although these are fictional and make alterations, the idea of getting to visualize historical locations in an open world format is really neat. So... I tried Odyssey and enjoyed it a whole lot. I now have Valhalla and am enjoying it.

I don't think I'll play the whole series, though. Valhalla has some nice violence-reduction options like NOT showing beheading which I certainly have used.

I think one thing that draws me to Odyssey and Valhalla is that they are less like the originals, which are very stealth-based from my understanding. I suck at stealth, so... lol.

@Konjus Honestly I've thought for ages about buying Rayman Legends and about getting the first Assassin's Creed on Xbox and keep not buying them both despite them routinely being dirt cheap for exactly that reason.

@Konjus Weird outlook you got there. That's the equivalent of saying you'll never eat at (fast food place here) because you once got a single burnt fry. Companies are large. They can't control everything that happens. Add the problem of the metoo movement that's being used as easy paychecks and well...just a dumb POV to have. Going to sell your switch instantly if a Nintendo employee gets metoo'd?

Anyway I agree with @Divide_and_Wander . This seems like a pre Christmas listing they'll drop to 50% off to cash in on.

Separately they do not have the DLC except for 2 and 3 that I know of.
Also when they go on sale I would expect the rest to go on sale as well.
Third I will just play them on my Xbox with my 360 games and get just as good of graphics.
Don’t get me wrong I love my switch and once this is cheap enough I may get it possibly but I am a physical game collector and there is no reason to spend 100 on this when I already own them physically.
Now if UBI releases a physical version I would definitely buy it even if it was 150. I am will to pay for a 5 game slotted case and 5 cartridges with everything on them.

i already bought the ezio rebel and assassins creed 3 remastered for 100 bucks so i would have saved 1 dollar..

I just wish they would crap out the first game on Switch because they are so close to having all the games that matter to the plot available now.

@ketrac Paris and London ran on PS4 and Xbox One though; they're last gen games. Switch should be able to handle stuff that old

@Mando44646 Switch is way weaker than those consoles. You can research that on the internet

Meanwhile they're all available as part of ps now, along with the latest installments
