Mafia: The Old Country is a “focused” experience that doesn’t “require massive time commitments”, for £45

Mafia: The Old Country will launch for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on 8th August, publisher 2K has now officially confirmed.


This is the release date previously listed by 2K on Steam, before it was swiftly removed. Still, it’s nice to know the GTA 6 delay by fellow Take-Two company Rockstar hasn’t changed anything.


In a press release issued today, 2K also revealed a £45/$50 price point for the game. Meanwhile, developer Hangar 13 set expectations that Mafia: The Old Country would be a “focused, linear” experience – in other words, relatively short – and easily digestible alongside players’ usual live-service diet.


“We think there’s a large audience for compelling stories that don’t require massive time commitments,” said 2K president David Ismailer. “We’re excited to offer a game like Mafia: The Old Country in our portfolio, and to provide a linear highly-polished narrative experience that can easily complement the other more persistent games our players also love and engage with on a more consistent basis.”


In other words, don’t stop playing GTA Online yet!


Set in Sicily – the aforementioned Old Country – back in the 1900s, this latest entry in the Mafia series has been angled as something of a return to franchise’s roots after the more modern-era open-world Mafia 3. First announced last year at Gamescom 2024, it’s the next entry in the series from Mafia 3 and Mafia: Definitive Edition studio Hangar 13, and the first to make use of Unreal Engine 5.
