    Assassin’s Creed III Remastered on the Nintendo Switch is impressive. It’s refined stealth tools and tactics mixed with additional gameplay design upgrades makes this a must-have for any AC fan dying to play something on the Switch that is guaranteed to occupy them for a long period of time.

    Assassin's Creed 3 is playfully still a good action adventure game that I can recommend to anyone who has not played it yet. Some gameplay elements and features may not be up-to-date anymore, but you'll get a satisfying and comprehensive package by today's standards.

    If you are looking for a stealth game of any sort, or are considering getting into Assassin’s Creed, this game is a must buy. Despite the few issues like unnoticeable graphical improvements and a slow beginning, Assassin’s Creed III Remastered features solid gameplay and a story underneath its surface that more than quantifies the investment. The sheer amount of things to do will lead to you investing hundreds of hours into this game.

    Assassin's Creed III Remastered on the Nintendo Switch is an adaptation that's not without its problems, especially when it comes to hit detection, framerate and unsolved bugs and technical issues. Despite all that, the combat and gameplay are enjoyable and competent and the game's shortcomings act more like nuisances to an experience that needs some polishing.

    Both Assassin's Creed III and Liberation are titles worth investing time into. They contain tons of content that’s fun, and the time setting makes for some interesting scenarios, but the technical issues for this Switch port aren’t worth the trade off for being able to play on the go. These issues aren’t bad enough that the Remastered editions on the Switch are an unplayable mess, but it’s still a mess regardless.

    Assassin's Creed 3 Remastered for Switch is an ugly mess that barely looks better than it did on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and yet somehow runs worse.

    If you absolutely feel the need to relive Desmond’s disappointing conclusion, do so on other platforms. At least the letdown looks a bit nicer there.

    Dont know why so much negativity this looks great especially in handheld mode. These reviews are plain harsh and then we complain when theyDont know why so much negativity this looks great especially in handheld mode. These reviews are plain harsh and then we complain when they stop porting games. We sit here and give these nintendo side scroller 1987 graphic games a 9/10 I'm confused. This game has its problems like any other but does not deserve this low of a rating. Stop bashing great games before they discontinue and stop pushing out physical copies. Saints row was just as gorgeous and not to mention the content you get with AC3. Better than super mario odyssey in my opinion… Expand

    You guys and your overblown expectations are without question is what will kill this system. This is an amazing port of a great game ON AYou guys and your overblown expectations are without question is what will kill this system. This is an amazing port of a great game ON A HANDHELD!! I have had this game on almost every system, and no it doesn’t look best here but it looks great and plays well plus having it on the go makes this without question my favorite way to enjoy this fantastic title. Imagine how disheartened I was to come online and see all the poor reviews (much like every other switch port recently). Do you guys really expect it to keep up with the big consoles? You are basically screaming to developers, “don’t even try open world games on the switch”. As a developer myself, it’s obvious love went into this port, and to be received this way, I can tell you, I would NEVER publish a triple A port on this platform as the user base is never satisfied. Better off sticking to 2D platformers and casual games.

    All that said, this is a great port (not without issues), and for something this engaging on the go, you won’t find better anywhere else. I suggest you enjoy it too because publishers are about done throwing games this vast at the system because they always go entirely un appreciated.    … Expand

    Nice port for AC III ..but not perfect especially in big town with some frame rate issues (need a patch)..out of the city the framerate isNice port for AC III ..but not perfect especially in big town with some frame rate issues (need a patch)..out of the city the framerate is pretty stable on solid 30fps: performance is not bad as ps3 but not at ps4 levels..graphics level instead is the same version of ps3/xbox 360 with few improvement and 1080p resolution in docked mode. AC Liberation run very well but remain an old psvita game remastered. However, despite the flaws, is incredible to play an assassins creed of this level with a portable console… Expand

This is straight overpriced trash on a now dying console that I'll be glad to sell on craigslist this weekend. Nintendo needs to improve their hardware or start charging much less for these ports that I paid much less for on superior systems. Don't believe the two people who gave this a 10 and 9, lol. It's garbage.… Expand
