Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope and Immortals Fenyx Rising drop to all‑time low prices in Ubisoft’s holiday sale on the Nintendo Switch eShop, with discounts up to 90% off across tactics, open‑world, and platformer staples.
Ubisoft has quietly dropped one of the best third‑party sales of the holiday season on the Nintendo Switch eShop, with discounts reaching up to 90 percent off. If you like tactical strategy, expansive open worlds, or just want to plug some gaps in your Switch backlog, this is the moment to grab a handful of long‑running Ubisoft staples for the price of a coffee.
The sale is live now and runs until January 5, giving you a short window to decide what to prioritize. These prices represent all‑time lows on Switch for several headliners, which is why this particular promotion stands out in a store that is rarely short on discounts.
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is practically a must‑buy at this price
The star of the sale is Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, which has plummeted from a $59.99 launch price to just $5.99. That is a full‑featured tactics campaign with chunky DLC support going for less than many mobile games. If you want the complete experience, the Gold Edition that bundles in the season pass is only $8.99, down from $89.99.
Sparks of Hope refines the formula of Kingdom Battle into a more fluid, free‑movement tactical system. You still build a squad of Mushroom Kingdom and Rabbid heroes, but instead of strict grids you dash, slide, and reposition within movement zones. The result feels less rigid than classic tactics games while still rewarding careful planning. Every encounter becomes a kind of environmental puzzle as you chain dashes, team jumps, and abilities to strip armor, trigger status effects, and line up big combo turns.
On top of the battles, there is a surprisingly substantial layer of exploration. Each planet you visit has side quests, puzzles, and optional combat challenges, and the Sparks you rescue open more build variety by bolting elemental and support powers onto your existing skills. For a single‑digit price, this is one of the highest value strategy titles you can add to a Switch library.
If you enjoy games like Fire Emblem or XCOM but want something faster and more approachable, this is the holiday sale’s clear priority pick.
Immortals Fenyx Rising delivers a giant open world for pocket change
Immortals Fenyx Rising is the other headline deal, dropping from $39.99 to $3.99. Ubisoft pitched it as a lighter, more playful spin on the modern open‑world formula, and on Switch it lands in a great spot for handheld play.
You play as Fenyx, exploring a stylized take on Greek mythology full of gods in trouble, monsters to fight, and environmental puzzles dotted across the landscape. Structurally it borrows a lot of ideas from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, with climbable surfaces, stamina management, gliding, and self‑contained vaults that focus on physics puzzles or combat challenges. The tone is breezy, with constant narration and a focus on quick bursts of progression rather than slow burn storytelling.
At four dollars, Immortals becomes the sort of game you can pick up just for the joy of roaming around a colorful world, cleaning up side objectives, and tinkering with builds. The Switch version is not the sharpest way to play the game, but handheld convenience and this discount make up for the visual concessions. For anyone who likes ticking icons off a map and experimenting with combat and traversal powers, it is an easy recommendation.
Assassin’s Creed and Prince of Persia bring big‑screen action to handheld
If you prefer something closer to classic action adventure, Ubisoft has slashed prices on several Assassin’s Creed collections and its latest 2D Prince of Persia.
Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection and Assassin’s Creed: The Rebel Collection are each sitting around the twelve‑dollar mark, down from typical $39.99 pricing. That is a substantial amount of content for anyone who missed these games in their original console generations. The Ezio trilogy offers some of the most beloved stories in the series, with tightly woven city sandboxes built around parkour, social stealth, and elaborate assassination setups. Rebel Collection bundles Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Assassin’s Creed Rogue, giving you a huge emphasis on naval exploration and ship combat that suits quick, repeatable sessions.
For something more modern, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is heavily discounted to roughly a third of its launch price. On Switch it is one of the better feeling action platformers, with crisp combat, tight controls, and a focus on time powers that twist both traversal and puzzles. If you like intricate map design, hidden shortcuts, and boss fights that reward pattern recognition, this is an ideal use of your holiday eShop budget.
Taken together, these offers make the sale unusually strong for players who want console‑style epics on a handheld. You can easily assemble a mini Ubisoft action library that will last dozens of hours for less than the cost of a single full‑price release.
Platformers, party games, and cult favorites round out the sale
Beyond the headliners, Ubisoft’s Switch catalog is dotted with discounts that appeal to co‑op players, families, and anyone who wants a break from long RPGs.
Rayman Legends is one of the best 2D platformers of the last decade and is available at a steep discount. Its level design mixes precision challenge stages with more relaxed musical runs, and on Switch it benefits from local co‑op that is easy to hand to newcomers. If you regularly play couch co‑op, this belongs in your library.
On the multiplayer front, trivia and party games like Family Feud, Jeopardy, Trivial Pursuit Live 2, Uno, and Wheel of Fortune are all down to impulse‑buy territory. These are not showpiece experiences, but they can anchor a family game night with minimal onboarding. The convenience of having them installed digitally on a Switch that can move between docked and tabletop modes makes them significantly more useful than their boxed counterparts.
If you gravitate toward more niche or story‑driven experiences, Valiant Hearts: The Great War offers a short, emotional adventure set during World War I at a very low price, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game gives you a stylish, retro beat em up that works well in portable bursts. These are great options for players who already own the big Ubisoft names and want something different.
Why this sale is a smart time to fill holes in your Switch library
What elevates this particular promotion beyond a standard eShop discount carousel is how deep the cuts go on games that are still easy to recommend in 2025. Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is not a forgotten launch title being cleared out at the margins, it remains one of the best tactical games on the system and is finally priced like a no‑brainer. Immortals Fenyx Rising gives you an entire open world to explore for less than the cost of a typical indie, and partner titles like The Lost Crown and the Assassin’s Creed collections extend that value into action adventure.
If you are a strategy fan, you can walk away with Sparks of Hope and its Gold Edition for less than a single month of many subscription services, and have a meaty campaign plus DLC to show for it. Open‑world fans can pair Immortals with one of the Assassin’s Creed bundles and get well over a hundred hours of exploration and combat for the cost of a budget game. Players who build their Switch around local co‑op can pick Rayman Legends and a couple of trivia or party packs and end up with a reliable rotation for gatherings.
Price tracking sites and deal communities are already flagging these discounts as the lowest yet on Switch, which means waiting for a better price is unlikely to pay off in the near term. With the sale ending on January 5, the main question is not whether these are good deals, but which genres you want to prioritize before the clock runs out.
For anyone who enjoys tactics and open‑world adventures, the Ubisoft holiday sale is one of the rare times where you can meaningfully expand your Switch library without putting a dent in your holiday budget.
