Guide: Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection on Nintendo Switch

Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection brings the trilogy of Assassin's Creed II, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, and Assassin's Creed Revelations to the Nintendo Switch. It includes all single-player DLC and the short films Embers and Lineage.

Here is a comprehensive guide regarding the performance, features, and technical details of the Switch version.

Final Verdict: The Auditore Legacy on the Go

The Assassin’s Creed The Ezio Collection Switch NSP represents more than just a file format; it represents the portability of a legacy. For a decade, Ezio’s story was locked to a television. Now, whether you are legally installing your backup or downloading from the eShop, you can leap from the rooftops of Venice while waiting for a bus.

Ubisoft delivered a shockingly competent port. It is stable, beautiful in an artistic sense, and features the best control scheme the game has ever had (thanks to the Joy-Cons). The removal of multiplayer stings, but the single-player content is so rich that most players won't notice.

Score: 8.5/10

“Requiescat in pace, old friend. Your work continues on the small screen.”

Emulation: Playing Ezio on Steam Deck & PC

If you want the feeling of an NSP without the illegality, consider these options:

Steam Deck: The Ezio Collection is not natively on Steam, but you can install Windows or use the Switch emulator (Yuzu) with your own legally dumped BIOS and game files. This is advanced.
PC Native: The Ezio Collection is on PC via Ubisoft Connect. It frequently sells for $9.99 and runs at 4K/60fps natively. This is vastly superior to emulating a Switch version.

Official release and platforms

Officially released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC (and later on newer consoles via backwards compatibility or re-releases).
No official Nintendo Switch release by Ubisoft as of April 10, 2026 — any Switch NSP claiming to be this collection is likely an unauthorized/unofficial port or ROM dump.

Recommendation

Purchase and play via official releases on supported platforms to ensure legal safety, updates, and best experience. Avoid unofficial NSPs to prevent legal, security, and reliability problems.

How to Install the Assassin’s Creed The Ezio Collection Switch NSP (For Legal Backups Only)

If you have dumped your own game card using a compatible Switch (unpatched or modded), here is the standard installation workflow:

Ensure your SD card is formatted as exFAT or FAT32 (with the file split for FAT32).
Copy the [TitleID].nsp file (usually starting with 010067A0100B4000) to the root of your SD card or a USB drive.
Boot into your preferred CFW (Atmosphere or SXOS).
Open a title installer like Tinfoil or Goldleaf.
Navigate to "Install from SD card" and select the NSP.
Choose "Install & Delete" to save space.
Once завершено (finished), the three game icons (II, Brotherhood, Revelations) will appear on your home screen simultaneously.

Comparison: NSP/eShop vs. Physical Cartridge

For those with a large SD card, the NSP version (whether bought from the eShop or archived from a cart) offers a cleaner, cart-free experience.
