Mafia: Definitive Edition remake gets a 15-minute gameplay reveal

We'll have to wait a little longer to play Mafia: Definitive Edition for ourselves, but to tide us over, 2K Games and Hangar 13 are showing off decent chunks of gameplay. As part of IGN's Summer of Gaming efforts, a 15 minute gameplay video for the game was produced, giving us a good look at all of the enhancements to expect. 

Unlike Mafia 2 and Mafia 3: Definitive Edition, which were less ambitious remasters, Mafia: Definitive Edition is more akin to a full-blown remake. There are graphical and gameplay enhancements reaching all aspects of the title and you can see some of that in action in the video below:

The footage is a mix of cinematics and raw gameplay from an early, pre-release build of the game. The game has been rebuilt from the ground up, with new facial and motion capture, a new lighting engine and new scenes/dialogue to further flesh out the story.

While there will be extra scenes, however, Hangar 13 has a team of veterans from all three Mafia games chipping in to ensure this remake stays faithful to the original. Mafia: Definitive Edition is due to release on the 25th of September 2020.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
