Mafia The Old Country launches on PC and consoles in August

Back in August, we received the first teaser trailer for the next Mafia game. Rather than a sequel, we are getting Mafia: The Old Country, a prequel that explores the origins of the Mafia families. Last night, an update to the game's Steam Store listing revealed that the game will become available one-year on from its initial reveal.

Mafia: The Old Country is a prequel, set years before the events of the first game. This is essentially an origin story, set in 1900s Sicily, presenting a gritty mob story during an era that was particularly dangerous and unforgiving for those involved.

Mafia: The Old Country will become available for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S starting on the 8th of August, roughly one year on from the game's original announcement.

All eyes are on publisher Take-Two and its subsidiaries this year. Take-Two owns 2K Games, which is publishing Mafia. With the game arriving in August, it seems likely that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be coming in the October-November timeframe.
