‘Mafia 4’ officially revealed as Mafia: The Old Country, set in Sicily during the ‘origins of the mafia’

Gamescom Opening Night Live closed out with a “just one more thing…” reveal this year, and it turned out to be a big one: the first wholly new game in the Mafia series since 2016.

Mafia: The Old Country is “a thrilling story set in 1900s Sicily during the origins of the mafia, “said Nick Baynes, president of Take-Two-owned development studio Hangar 13. Baynes didn’t get into the details, but said the Old Country is “going back to the roots of what fans love about the Mafia franchise, crafting a deep, linear narrative with that classic mob movie feeling.”
