Mafia The Old Country Summer 2025, Here’s What We Know
Mafia is finally going back to its roots—and this time, it’s personal.
Mafia The Old Country, a full-blown prequel set in early 1900s Sicily. It’s dropping Summer 2025 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, and it’s looking like the franchise is finally ready to get its hands dirty again.
You play as Enzo Favara, job: heh, a nobody. No power, no name, no respect. Just a guy trying to carve out a place in the brutal world of old-school organized crime. This isn’t a rise-to-glory story—it’s a crawl through blood, betrayal, and broken rules, one violent favor at a time.
Old World, Unreal Engine 5 Shine
The game was created in Unreal Engine 5, and yeah—it shows.
We’re not in a big American city this time. You’re moving through narrow alleys, rural towns, and sunbaked hills where danger doesn’t come with a warning label. Everything looks handcrafted for ambushes, tension, and the kind of violence that doesn’t make headlines—it makes legends.
There’s no skyscraper skyline or neon lighting here. Just stone streets, creaky wagons, and dirt that never seems to wash off. It’s slower, more personal, and all the more dangerous for it.
Guns Are Rare. Blades Are Real.
Mafia: The Old Country arrives Summer 2025.

Combat in Mafia The Old Country doesn’t mess around. You’ve got period-accurate revolvers, rifles, and sawed-off shotguns—but don’t expect to be mowing people down every five seconds.
You’re getting up close. You’re using knives. And when things go loud? You better mean it.
Travel also fits the setting. Horseback rides for stealth and mobility. Early 1900s cars for when you need to escape and pray the engine doesn’t stall. Everything is fragile, frantic, and fully in theme.
Release Info and Where to Play
Mafia The Old Country is coming to:
- PC
- PlayStation 5
- Xbox Series X|S
No last-gen, no Switch—this one’s going all-in on current hardware. Which makes sense. From what little we’ve seen, it’s clear Hangar 13 is going for grit and detail, Mafia The Old Country is looking more appealing with every new update.
Final Thoughts: Welcome to the Dirt
This isn’t a glossy mob power fantasy—it’s a survival story with brass knuckles. Enzo isn’t trying to take over the city. He’s just trying to stay alive long enough to matter.
And there’s more coming. When PAX East hits, 2K’s hosting a full developer panel where Hangar 13 will break down gameplay details, share behind-the-scenes dev stories, and give us a rare peek into where the Mafia series is headed next.
