All these years later, it remains one of the best Switch games available Breath of the Wild is an even sweeter deal for Assassin’s Creed fans, who should feel right at home clambering up the face of cliffs across its 50-hour story. Where Assassin’s Creed offers chaos and bloodshed, Breath of the Wild is a breath of fresh serenity, and can be incredibly therapeutic and relaxing when you’re not being chased by Cucco’s or aggravating fire dragons. You can climb anything in Breath of the Wild, much like you can scale most structures in Rome in Assassin’s Creed 2. It’d be hard to argue it doesn’t evoke some of Assassin’s Creed greatest qualities in its open-world design and clever climbing mechanics.

If you find yourself enjoying Assassin’s Creed’s stealth gameplay, Dishonored doubles down on that fun, and offers an engaging story to boot.Ī game that quickly became near and dear to every early adopter’s heart when it dropped alongside the Nintendo Switch in early 2017, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an utter masterpiece, a holistic reinvention of Zelda that pushed the series away from the trappings of the past and into the future. Sure, it’s a harsh switch to the first-person perspective, but the stealth ethos of Creed is present here, a style you should be familiar with if you’re an old-school stealth game fan.

Whether you want to set traps, possess foes or use acrobatics to get around a problem, Dishonored 2 offers you that bandwidth alongside some genius level design, creating maps full of clever environmental storytelling - spaces begging to be explored. One of the finest modern Immersive Sims, Dishonored 2 is still a revolutionary stealth game with toy box levels designed for critical thinkers and tinkerers. Arkane’s Dishonored series will delight stealth-focused Assassin’s Creed fans who enjoyed the more focused earlier entries in the series – where you couldn’t just whip out dual scimitars and go to town on enemies.
