The world of organized crime takes center stage once again as 2K and Hangar 13 unveiled the highly anticipated Mafia: The Old Country at The Game Awards. With a riveting trailer introducing players to the gritty criminal underworld of 1900s Sicily, this new chapter in the acclaimed Mafia franchise promises an authentic and captivating narrative-driven experience. Set to launch in Summer 2025, the game is now available for wishlisting, giving fans a glimpse into what could be the most ambitious entry in the series yet.

A Journey Back to the Roots of Organized Crime

Mafia: The Old Country harks back to the origins of organized crime, offering players a story steeped in historical detail and gripping drama. Unlike previous titles in the franchise, this game transports players to a time when loyalty, family, and survival were often a matter of life and death. The linear, narrative-driven structure ensures a focused experience, making it a must-play for fans eager to immerse themselves in the world of the Sicilian Mafia.

The protagonist, Enzo, serves as the emotional and moral anchor of the story. After enduring a harrowing childhood as an indentured laborer in Sicily’s sulfur mines, Enzo seizes an opportunity to join Don Torrisi’s crime family. This decision sets him on a treacherous path of loyalty and sacrifice. Through Enzo’s eyes, players will navigate a world of vendettas, protection rackets, and the brutal realities of life as a mafioso in turn-of-the-century Sicily.

Groundbreaking Gameplay and Cinematic Immersion

Hangar 13 is known for its dedication to crafting compelling narratives, and Mafia: The Old Country looks to raise the bar even further. The game promises a graphically stunning cinematic experience, blending high-stakes stealth and visceral gunplay with a focus on authentic, grounded combat systems. Players will wield era-appropriate weapons like the lupara sawed-off shotgun and stiletto blades while exploring Sicily on foot, horseback, or behind the wheel of vintage motorcars.

The studio’s commitment to historical accuracy and emotional depth shines through in every detail. From the cobblestone streets of Sicilian villages to the towering estates of mafia dons, Mafia: The Old Country aims to fully immerse players in its richly detailed world. According to Nick Baynes, President of Hangar 13, “Mafia: The Old Country is a love letter to old-style, gritty Mafia stories where players can uncover the origins of organized crime. Everyone at Hangar 13 is committed to creating the most authentic and intense story of the franchise, and we can’t wait for players to experience the journey with Enzo.”

A Legacy of Excellence

Since the release of the original Mafia game in 2002, the franchise has captivated audiences with its blend of gripping narratives and immersive gameplay. With over 35 million copies sold across consoles and PC, Mafia remains a cornerstone of the crime-drama genre in gaming. Hangar 13, the studio behind the series, has spent decades refining its craft, and Mafia: The Old Country is shaping up to be a culmination of that expertise.
