While it's not a clean, locked, properly paced 30fps for the entirety of the experience (as it was on PlayStation 4) the performance level is mostly there and only drops sporadically - and even then, we're still in the high 20s. The resolution improvement over last-gen is clear and the wobbly 20-60fps unlocked frame-rate of the older games is gone with a more preferable capped 30fps in place instead.ĭynamic resolution scaling seems to be doing a good job here in stabilising performance.

Also impressive is that the portable experience is mostly fixed at 1280x720 to match the screen's native resolution, and while we didn't pick out any DRS in the action, it may well be there in extreme cases. However, on balance it's surprising how much of the experience remains at the target 1080p. For Rogue I've counted a little lower as the worst point, at 1472x828. In naval warfare and in dense forest spots, the lowest I measured is around 1600x900 in Black Flag. Standard 1920x1080 is the upper bounds there, but resolution will drop in intense scenes.

Yes, they are ports - but some thought has gone into the conversions. It's exhilarating to watch and looks wonderful in both games, which are well-delivered on Switch and in many respects, superior in play compared to the PlayStation 3 version.

Calm coral blue bay areas quickly turn to stormy seas - a battleground beholden to wave deformation. Black Flag re-invigorated the series, adding an emphasis on ship-to-ship battling, taking the series from parkour to large scale naval warfare.

It's a whopping 20GB install in total, so what does this actually deliver? Are we getting a mildly upgraded last-gen experience or a hybrid release with some of PS4 and Xbox One's enhancements?įirst up, I think it's worth stressing that it's a genuine pleasure to see these games again. Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag and AC Rogue are now available on Switch with all DLC included. The Ezio Collection is still a notable absence but Ubisoft continues to bring its back catalogue of Assassin's Creed titles onto Nintendo Switch, this time with The Rebel Collection - combining the last two last-gen series entries into one release.
