Mafia: The Old Country Set for Summer 2025 Release – A Gritty Prequel to the Mafia Franchise

By
Mafia: The Old Country

Earlier tonight in what was a stellar Game Awards 2024 show. We got a new trailer for the upcoming Mafia: The Old Country. First established in 2002 with the launch of the landmark game Mafia, the franchise has sold more than 35 million copies across consoles and PC.

Hangar 13 has spent 22 years immersing players in brutal Mafia worlds, and now these franchise veterans are focused on Mafia: The Old Country.

So, what is Mafia: The Old Country? Well, before I give you some extra details, why don’t you watch the latest trailer?

As a linear, narrative-driven game, Mafia: The Old Country is a focused package perfect for fans looking to engross themselves in an unfamiliar world of danger and intrigue. The graphically stunning cinematic experience features a story grounded in the brutal world of organized crime that authentically immerses players with dangerous combat systems featuring high-stakes, grounded stealth and gunplay mechanics.

Mafia: The Old Country introduces a new, original protagonist for players to embody. Enzo’s story unfolds in a time when skill with a stiletto blade was a deadly asset, a lupara sawed-off shotgun was a go-to firearm, murderous vendettas raged for decades, and mafiosi patrolled their protection rackets on foot, horseback, or behind the wheel of turn-of-the-century motorcars.

Through grit and determination, Enzo has survived a childhood of indentured labour in Sicily’s hellish sulphur mines. Now, through a twist of fate, he has the opportunity to join Don Torrisi’s crime family, and will do whatever it takes to carve out a better life for himself. By swearing an oath, Enzo has committed himself to the Torrisi family’s code of honour, with all the power and hardship it entails. He must never forget this simple truth: Family Takes Sacrifice.

Mafia: The Old Country is shaping up to be an origin story of sorts for… you guessed it the Mafia. As someone that has played the entire franchise up to this point, I am delighted to be getting more of the series. I can’t wait to see how this new entry evolves and improves on the last three Mafia games.
