Regardless of its quickly approaching August 8 launch date for PC, PS5, and Xbox Sequence X|S, not a lot has been seen from Mafia: The Old Country, the upcoming prequel – and fourth mainline entry – within the fashionable mafioso action-adventure collection. That modifications as we speak. Mafia: The Old Country is our IGN First “cowl story” for the month of July, which means we’ll have unique content material all month lengthy – particularly on Mafia Mondays!
We kick issues off as we speak with 9 minutes of unique gameplay from the Villa part in Chapter 5 of the story. Observe that this footage has been edited for size and to keep away from some story/character spoilers.
Subsequent Monday we’ll have our unique hands-on preview after enjoying three hours of the marketing campaign. Within the meantime, try our chat with recreation director Alex Cox and Hangar 13 studio president Nick Baynes in addition to Baynes and 2K president David Ismailer discussing the choice to cost The Old Country at $50 and return to Mafia’s narrative-driven, linear roots.
Ryan McCaffrey is IGN’s govt editor of previews and host of each IGN’s weekly Xbox present, Podcast Unlocked, in addition to our month-to-month(-ish) interview present, IGN Unfiltered. He is a North Jersey man, so it is “Taylor ham,” not “pork roll.” Debate it with him on Twitter at @DMC_Ryan.
