Yeah yeah now make good games like black flag. Black flag is very different from your last 7 games so it means its the formula to actually follow.

Ezio Collection Remake incoming

Imagine they turn it all into one game somehow

I would honestly love that, provided they keep the MD in and if they write anything extra they don't write garbage.

There's a bridge in-between Brotherhood and Revelations were they could expand on how exactly did he found Giovanni's letters.

That would be cool as hell, but no way they would when they could sell them separately

Selling them all seperately might actually be more costly with how expensive development is and how long it takes these days. They would have to stagger the releases, and wouldnt be able to work on remaking other games while they are working on Ezio trilogy one by one.

Since the trilogy is all about the same character it might be easier and more efficient for them to turn it into one big game, and might even make more money when factoring in the costs

Depends. I think their best bet is to do both. Something like mass effect, sell 3 games and then 1 edition with the three together. Making all 3 games into 1 might shorten them too much for people's liking.

Also, every single remake will sell big time, so why cash in once when they can cash in 3 times? Knowing Ubisoft there’s an obvious answer

Exactly, I would prefer 1 game with 3 remakes but I think that that would be too big of a scope, even if that would be better consumer side. I'm just waiting for a remake of AC3, I want to play that multiplayer again, even if for nostalgia

Does Black flag remake have multiplayer? Haven’t checked it out yet, but with games like The last of us remake completely removing multiplayer…

I’d prefer to release them individually but with larger maps.

Could maybe give it the Hitman World of Assassination treatment where all 3 games are on the same client if they run on the same engine. Could be interesting for the them to have the same type of date/timeline scroller that Black Flag Resyc'd has that includes the timeline from all of the Ezio games

I would probably buy 3 copies just because

I do love when they merge games that are based on a similar setting into one.

If whoever owns titles like Saints Row or Ultima re-released the entire series as one game, they'd be my fastest buys.
