It is a remake of the game that shares the same name and premise, and it pays tribute to the games of the early 2000s. It is part of the Planned Mafia: Trilogy and 2 more games are to follow in the near future.

What’s new in Mafia: Definitive Edition?

The short answer would be that pretty much everything and nothing is new at the same time. Following the trend of many gaming hits of the past that got remakes, Mafia: Definitive Edition is not just Mafia with new textures and better lighting, but rather a new game built from the ground up using the latest technologies. The overall purpose of the game was to bring back what made the original so iconic and expand upon it. This includes recreating the 1930s cityscape, improving the musical score, and more. You can see this for yourself from the announcement trailer below: However, there are a few things that you can try in the game that weren’t in the 2002 original, and that is called Free Ride Mode. This interesting new feature lets gamers explore Lost Heaven in a free-form sandbox mode where they can test drive the vehicles in their garage. More so, easter eggs and collectibles have been hinted as well.

What consoles can I play Mafia: Definitive Edition on?

Mafia: Definitive Edition can run on Xbox, PS4, and Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, but thanks to the backward compatibility it will also be playable on the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, as well as the PlayStation 5.

Do I need a powerful PC to run Mafia: Definitive Edition?

Since for all intents and purposes Mafia: Definitive Edition can be considered a brand-new game, don’t expect a PC that ran the 2002 version smoothly to be anywhere near powerful enough to run this game. That being said, here are the minimum specs for Mafia: Definitive Edition:

CPU: Intel Core-i5 2550K 3.4GHz / AMD FX 8120 3.1 GHz RAM: 6 GB OS: Windows 10 64-bit Video card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 / AMD Radeon HD 7870 Pixel Shader: 5.0 Vertex Shader: 5.0 Sound Card: DirectX Compatible Free disk space: 50 GB Dedicated Video RAM: 2048 MB
