Yesterday, Hangar 13 studio and 2K Games publisher announced the release date for Mafia: Definitive Edition, which is a full remake of the first part. And now on the official website of the series, there is new information about the upcoming project. The developers briefly mentioned what content they added to the new version of the game.
As reported by Game Pressure, citing the source, Mafia: Definitive Edition expanded the story and the size of the world so that players get more space for research. In a remake when traveling around Lost Haven, users will be able to ride not only on cars but also on motorcycles. This will be a new type of vehicle. Among the technical improvements, the authors mentioned 4K support with HDR and redesigned visual and sound effects. According to the developers, Mafia: Definitive Edition will be a faithful remake, which in every way complements the classic game of 2002.
Recall that the basic concept of the plot will not change in the updated first part. Users will take on the role of the protagonist Thomas Angelo, who worked as a regular taxi driver in Lost Haven, but one day became an involuntary participant in criminal business. From this moment, the protagonist begins to carry out the assignments of the Salieri family and climb the criminal career ladder.
A full-fledged demonstration of Mafia: Definitive Edition will be held on June 6 as part of the PC Gaming Show.
The project will be released on August 28, 2020, on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PS4, and Xbox One. Digital services have already opened pre-orders.
