mafia

Having been unavailable digitally for years thanks to its licensed music, Mafia is now back on Steam, just a few weeks after it also reappeared on GOG.

The first Mafia game is now available on GOG after years of being off stores like Steam. The uniquely period-appropriate open-world crime-a-thon is unfortunately missing its licensed music, but is otherwise intact and DRM-free. It’s a classic in most of, if not all, its glory. Worth checking out if you haven’t already.

For those tired of the first two Mafia games’ adherence to strict genre limitations (Italians in nice cars and tommy guns), may I present to you Mafia III.

Per 2K Games’s announcement on Twitter, Mafia III comes to PC, PS4 and Xbox One on October 7. There’s a new story trailer which you can watch above, and you can read about Kotaku UK’s early impressions of the game at last year’s Gamescom here.

It’s long been rumored that a new Mafia game was in development and now we have confirmation. More details will be revealed next week.
