Mafia: Definitive Edition Brings Some New & Amazing Gameplay

Mafia: Definitive Edition — Key Art

The first gameplay for the Mafia: Definitive Edition is here to show how amazing this Mafia remake is going to look when it drops

Get your eyes ready for something special, as we have a look at the first gameplay for the Mafia: Definitive Edition here in all of its 4K glory. That is not an understatement here when you finally take in what Hangar 13 did to get the game up and running for the PS4, Xbox One, and then better for the PC. This is not just some resampling for things from the original Mafia title in 2002 but a full remake in many different ways. Something I was worried was not going to be the issue but 2K Games has put in all the funds to get this to be a true definitive edition of the title. Also, so we can play the whole trilogy in one place too.

In addition to the extremely upgraded visuals, this version of Mafia will also be using new motion capture to bring better performances and a few extra things added in to further expand the base story. If that was not enough, we are getting a new hybrid gun system to play with a mixture of the Mafia 3 gameplay and the handling of the first one. All to bring the game into a more modern feel for our gaming but still making it certain we are not playing a bad-ass soldier and someone that stumbled into the situation. It looks and works really well if you have not already jumped down to see what is going on as of yet.
