    I'm a big fan of the original and I think this is a faithful remake that Hangar 13 should be proud of.

    It's a game from a different era. Its world is not open, it's actually incredibly closed. You go from mission to mission without any form of free exploration or side quests. It has a good story and a satisfying shooting system. Considering it is a remake I'm giving it an 8 (would have given it a 6 otherwise)

The game still offers this open world gameplay in a game mode called Free Ride, which I think is a nice addition to add to the game's value for money.

    The experience on the linear story mode alone is enough to make it a worthwhile purchase though because the game is crafted with beautiful graphics, good acting, simple but fun gameplay, and interesting narrative. Is it a good remake? I do not have knowledge about the original Mafia, so I cannot give comment about that. But is it a good game? Absolutely.    … Expand

    A really lovely re-make of one of my favorite PC games of all time. Extremely worried after the debacle that was Mafia 3 (most disappointing game ever?) but Hangar 13 came through.

    The graphics are spectacular. Super clean and lovely to look at everything. The story is the most captivating part of the game.

It's linear, but there's something magical about this classic 1930's mob story. I can remember how inspiring it was at 13, and it definitely brought back fond memories, and made some new ones. Driving is a lot of fun, the cars feel great. The shooting mechanics didn't bother me as much as some, but definitely nothing innovative going on. Headshots are effective. I prefer this over a game like Division where you have to shoot someone a thousand times to fall.

    On the downside, let's be real, the open world is pretty pointless. It's nice to have the option to just cruise, but there's nothing to do more than look around. Sight seeing should be had, but it won't fill you up for too long.
    Overall if you're looking for a solid mob story during the prohibition era, I would highly recommend!

    ps camera was a little glitchy on low frames, so be sure to uncap the frame rate.    … Expand

The Visuals is amazing, From the cars to the cutscenes. The Sound effects are perfect, from the guns to the muscle car that i ended up playing a lot with due to the engine sounds. The Voice acting also is on spot. I can not say i encountered any bugs or performance issues during my PlayThrough. The Story was interesting, but nothing special. The ending was fantastic tho. On the replayability, i can no see anyone replaying this more than 1 time in 1 year, Pros & Cons: +Great Visuals. +Good Story. +Breathtaking City. +The Music -No Side Missions "8/10 – Very Good. These games leave me with something outstanding to remember them by, ideas for single-player or multiplayer, clever characters and writing, noteworthy graphics and sound, or some combination thereof.

This review will be spoiler free.

    Very true to the source.

    I will preface by saying, I had not played the first one, and I had not finished the second but I have watched them shortly after finishing.

    At first, the game is certainly not enthralling. Its characters are not compelling, and the missions aren't super incredible at first. However, the game does pick up. The voice acting REALLY rubbed me the wrong way at the beginning, "The Don" did not feel like a mafia boss at first, and paulie did not feel like a soldier in the mafia, however as the game went on these characters became more believable.

    None of the characters are loveable, that's the point. Much like goodfellas, the sopranos and more, the characters are all criminals and generally not good people but at a certain point you are compelled to finish their stories. You certainly have to suspend disbelief for some of the games mechanics such as cops just giving up on searching for you after a massive job.

    Some of the missions did not feel particularly grand, and maybe could've used more modernization but I can understand why that may have not been the case so I can't fault it entirely.

    One thing that this game carried over from its Mafia 3 is the INCREDIBLE cinematics, they're fantastic. They bring so much to the game, and really this is where the characters shine. Their animations in scenes are fantastic, while out can be a bit strange at time but generally not bad.

    I only came across 2-3 game breaking bugs and were easily fixed with a quick restart of the game.
    Zero graphical bugs except for the weird one that was present in mafia 3 where the character has a strange outline on them in certain weather types.

    Overall a great experience, For 40$ its a fun pickup, for 30$ its great, for less, its a must have.

    It is not supremely long, in fact, it took me less than 3 days to beat it, after playing it off and on for a few hours at a time. I'd say maybe 10 hours, probably less if you're quick to it and turn off the "trivial driving" setting to skip the slower parts, however, I'd leave it on as there is some good dialogue and more involved there that could not be seen otherwise.

    The world feels great, the vehicles and lifestyle of everyone is very in tune with the time and the radio selection is excellent, however, its rather drab and gray. I understand that may be some of the point but it does suffer from much of what Mafia 2 suffered from. The color palette leaves a lot to be desired but its not awful. The game is linear, so I understand why the world is not supremely fleshed out, as it does not expect players to be driving around free-roaming like they do in Mafia 3 or a plethora of other open world games.

    The antagonist is interesting, but not super compelling, I'd argue the main characters pursuits are far more compelling than the rival mob. The game is told through a series of flashbacks, very akin the mafia 3 but not as masterfully. It's very well done, and sticks to the original but it does show its age when its being told like that and massive gaps in story are happening.

    Overall, its a wonderful game and potentially one of the greatest remasters of all time of a game I had never really felt compelled to play.    … Expand

Genuinely I wasn't expecting such an brilliant game! I really think that this game deserve a lot more attention. But to be fair there are a few bugs... Missing buttons prompts was the worst bug and I don't know why it hasn't been patched. But there was of course a racing mission... I've spent 3 hours only trying to beat it on the hardest difficulty... finally I came across a video on yt where dude is talking about RAM button and cutting the grass... And magically I have won in second try... That one mission was a hell of a mess! It was not fun at all and I don't know who thought that this would be a good idea! Despite the difficulty on the hardest level it's a really amazing game with stunning story amazing acting and lot of memorable moments! I can surely recommend Mafia definitive edition to anyone!… Expand

    I loved the original mafia and this remake absolutely made me shed a tear for this classic. Graphics and gameplay are stunning and mission design is almost perfect. The tweaks on the story are ok and don't destroy the og feel. The only bad thing preventing this from getting a 10 is relatevely empty world in Free Ride without a lot of things to do.

When I first played Mafia 2, that game was gorgeous for me and is still one of my favorite video-games of all time! Now Mafia DE is very similar in terms of Open Word, level and mission design. This ist NOT an open world game to be explored and freeroamed. The map is just a beautiful scenery which allows the police chases and the driving in general to be non-linear and enjoyable. Now the game itself is very linear. You finish a mission, the game will just continue with the next one. This is no GTA or Mafia 3, where you need to manually start each mission. I personally think this is a good design choice, because it makes the story much more intense and is a good variety compared to all those 40hour grind open world games.
    I finished the story in 13h, which I'm totally fine with. But difficulty was way to unbalanced. I played on hard, at times the game was ridiculously hard, at other times it was too easy. E.g. The car chase with that heavy truck was ridiculously unnecessary. Enemy AI in this game is not good. Enemys seldom try to flank you, so there is no pressure on you and you can just stay in cover as long as you want. On the other hand AI seems to have some sort of magic aim bot being able to shoot you in the head if you leave cover for just milliseconds even after you just changed your position of cover. It's practically impossible not to loose health, no matter how cautious you are.
    One other critique is the story. While I really enjoyed that one, it was also pretty flat. Sure there were some highlights but somehow the emotions never REALLY showed up in the characters. There also wasn't anything near a plot-twist.
    Apart from that:
    -Music is great, Radio talking is interesting.
    -graphics are nice
    -Lost Heaven is a beautiful scenery -NPCs and physics are not as dumb/bad as in Cyberpunk
    -driving is actually fun (especially when you played Cyberpunk right before this game)
    -atmosphere is great
    -Besides the bad AI (though a bit better than the horrible Cyberpunk AI), the Gameplay was actually enjoyable (especially when you played Cyberglitch right before this game)
    -I had no major glitches, bugs or crashes (should be a matter of course, but you know after playing Cyberbug...)
    -the police is actually chasing you in cars. This doesn't seem to be very special I know. But as I said, I just played Cyberpunk... Conclusion:
    This is not Cyberpunk. This is actually a great game, though it has its flaws.    … Expand

    Car physics

    City overhaul

    Were done really good, this is what you should pay credits for to Hangar13 for sure.

    But there are of course minuses
    1.Soundtrack/Radio - even though I said soundtrack was good but some of the Simunek tracks could stay, Jesse Harlin did really good but some of the Simunek soundtrack were truly a masterpiece, why couldn't they mix old and new tracks? Its a big question. Then there is radio part, damn that is really sad, only one radio song left from the OG "Mooche", new one are good as well, but not as good as in the OG, I don't know why they couldn't get them, didn't want to overpay or what, but I'm sure they could make an agreement and get at least 50% of the OG tracks and it would make the game aaa lot better.
    2.Lighting bugs, whenever you look at the wall or other static objects in different angle the lighting blinks and its suck, same issues were in Mafia 3, still can't fix that? Big minus.
    3.Missions too much scripted. For example mission in the port "You lucky bastard", you just have to stick to where the game says you to go, location is bounded all around, you can't explore the port like you could in the OG Mafia, its just narrow corridor, I want to decide on my own how I want to deal with certain mission but sadly the remake doesn't give you this choice. A big minus for me.

    Anyway with all this said its a pretty good game, but at the same time a pretty weak remake.I give solid 8 to this game.    … Expand

    - Some doors open quite weird
    - I didn't like that sometimes the game's story just jumps from 1935 to 1938, I mean It would've been much more interesting if we'd get to know the characters much more which leads to my next point
    - Some of the characters were really underwhelming that I couidn't even care less about what's happened to them.

    8/10. I've enjoyed my time with the game don't get me wrong, but sometimes it's just underwhelming.    … Expand

    It's overall nice game, but why even make it open world in 2020, if whole city is absolutely empty. There's nothing to do in that city. Wasted potential, because gta 5 style game in 1930s would be amazing.

    I am impressed with this game. I had very little expectations, it is so much better than Mafia 2. The story is great and the characters are special. Paulie is a great character. The graphics are better than Mafia 2 DE. There isn't much to do like GTA or other open world games but remember this is a remake of a 10 year old+ game. Enjoy.

    I really dig that one! Pretty good plot, very compelling characters and a good atmosphere overall. But besides the main story, there's basically nothing to be seen here. Best mafia story in the gaming media though.

    This game is such an amazing nostalgia, the only reason it is not getting a 10 because it is more shallow compared to 2002, but still quite deep. This remake is something we needed but never asked for. Thumbs Up

    A successful remake. The original game had unplayable mechanics. I didn't understand how people could play that game. You should definitely give this one a chance. The only negative thing about this game was the car racing mission. In the original game everyone was annoyed with that part too. I don't understand why they added the same part to the remake in the same terrible way. The gameA successful remake. The original game had unplayable mechanics.

    One of the best games of this decade. Great characters, great storytelling and great visuals and sound. The only drawback would be the racing mission but apart from it, every single other mission rocks.

    MAFIA DEFINITIVE EDITION is faithful to the original vision and great as it is, but the game could have been improved with more budget - 8/10

    The original game was one of my favorites, and I've finally played this version. I honestly felt very respected by the developers. This edition is such a pleasure to play and such a beautiful homage to the fans. There were some bugs and AI problems along the way, especially in the prison mission, but it didn't turn me off.

    Es muy buen juego, tiene una historia que es casi lineal y algo corta, pero se compensa completamente ya que es bastante fuerte, buena y triste, los gráficos son muy agradables, lo único que nunca me ha terminado de gustar completamente de los mafia es su jugabilidad, especialmente al momento de conducir. Se agradece mucho las voces en mas idiomas, para mi eso también cuenta mucho.

    This is a full-fledged, honest to God remake. Some changes to the story will upset hardcore fans, but I think this approach is absolutely justified. Even though this remake is not as amazing as new versions of Resident Evil 2 and Final Fantasy 7, it’s still a worthy update.

    The main difference between the remake and the original game is that the latter was outstanding for its time, while the Definitive Edition is “merely” good. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s not worth your time. What’s crucial here is the fact that Hangar 13 approached the original’s narrative with proper respect and refrained from changing it too much. Mafia: Definitive Edition might not be remarkable as an open-world action game, but it still has the story worthy of the most revered gangster movies. [12/2020, p.28]

    Mafia: Definitive Edition is a remake of mixed flavours. Some elements are just as they used to be, and it's great. Some elements are just as they used to be, and it's awful. Mixture of aged mechanics and amazing graphics, new voices, great old story and some added, yet bad storylines, make it not such a perfect remake. But it sure is worth your time, whether you are a fan of the original or not. The moral of the story survived in all its glory, just be sure to focus your attention to the details where Mafia used to and still shines the most.
