'Assassin's Creed' and its Popularity

"Assassin's Creed" is one of the few franchises that has a ring to its name, and chances are, a gamer already experienced or finished the game in the story, knowing the brotherhood and their role. The game focuses on an action-adventure role-playing game that puts the person in the talents and skills of someone with the responsibility to protect society from the shadows.

The popular game focuses on one main character, Desmond Miles, who became a subject of the Animus to explore his long-line of assassin ancestors. The different games of the franchise already focused on other civilizations like Ancient Greece with "Assassin's Creed: Oddysey," and the Viking soldiers of the Scandinavians with "Assassin's Creed: Valhalla."

Ezio remains one of the most popular characters in the franchise. His collection is only a testament to his fame as a master assassin in the Renaissance era in Italy. The arrival of his collection to the Nintendo Switch will give players a chance to relive the game and enjoy its story in a more proper setup with the hybrid console.
