A leaked trailer has revealed that Mafia: The Old Country, developed by Hangar 13 and published by Take-Two Interactive, is set to launch in Summer 2025 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Hanger 13 is right to create a shorter, more curated experience.
Because the story will be better, the pacing will be better, the graphics will be better. It'll be a shorter experience at a cheaper price.
Um no it's not a good thing, i was looking forwards to a interesting setting for an open world gsme... 1900s sicily would be a pretty compelling setting imo if done correctly. I was expecting something very different to what we will now be getting. All these gsmes that turn American cities into open worlds and only assassins creed really consistently bothers to put the effort in todo so for other locations. As someone with sicilian heritage I find this very disappointing.
It's a shame they are ditching the open world. That's absolutely gonna hurt the game and the sales numbers. People want that stuf. A fun open playground. The trailers for this game doesn't even look that good. Looks confusing as hell. Like they don't know what game they are making.
Mafia: The Old Country PAX East panel shares new character insights, combat changes, and setting research. Full breakdown inside!
Developer Hangar 13 breaks down new gameplay details.
It is priced at $49.99. From other articles I read, the game is more linear so probably like Mafia 1 and 2 instead of 3 (full open world). I am guessing around 10-12 hours.
Too many massive open worlds this is refreshing. Concentrate on a more dynamic smaller area.
Open is good, too open where you easily get lost.. nah. Unfortunately even Nintendo has got a taste of open world and want to make huge deserts now, this is why I prefer Mario 3D Land and World, open enough for some exploration and alternate paths but not desolate either.
Yea ... Felt abit sad when they revealed switching to UE5.
Mafia 1 Remake looked really good with their proprietary engine and that was on last gen hardware.
Coulda upgraded it to take advantage of the new hardware.
I think they are trying to get in before GTA VI to capitalize on people’s hype lol
oh great it has horses (rolls eyes)
Love the Mafia games. I’m kind of curious to see what this one’s all gonna be like. I figure they’re taking on the Godfather 2 vibe.
Mafia has a special place for me. It's an open world GTA style game that has excellent story telling, acting and sets the good ol' godfather tone like no other. The gameplay on the other hand can be hit or miss with each game. I'm hoping they learned from the mafia 1 remake and mafia 3 to get the right amount of gameplay elements down to make a great game.
This series will always be so good to me, so atmospheric. Plenty of gems coming out that look soo good finally lol
