    Take notes every developer out there, this is how a remake SHOULD BE! They worked so hard and truly did remake Mafia from the ground up. It is truly one of the most beautiful games I’ve ever played. Definitely in the top 5 when it comes to graphics. Story is also amazing.

    Mafia DE is a great example how a remake should look like.
    The graphical design is astonishing, cutscenes were redone perfectly, gameplay is smooth and the game got rid of tedious tasks (e.g. the train ride with Paulie, drive back to the bar). I absolutely loved the classic difficulty, the race took a lot out of me. It has some bugs though. I hope they're going to be fixed soon.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I played the original mafia some months ago, and by playing the remake I can just say that its great. The way ut feels, the atmosphere, cars, and story are just fantastic. I really weren't expected a good remake from Hangar 13, after mafia 3 and its unoriginal story, but now i see they made a hard work to not to disappoint gamers. Yeah I've seen a lot of people critisising mafia because its more casual than the original one, or people saying that they are quitting game because of that race, I've seen people critisizing the remake for its story changes and etc.. but lets be more rational, compared to new pay to win or 1000 hours online games, or left wing propagandistic games, and games without any esthetic sense, mafia remake is just fantastic. The gameplay, and by this i mean shootings, driving and etc... doesn' make you be bored. Story changes are logical and make story more inteeesting. Saras romance is now more clear, and because of new graphics, the game is looking more cinematic and more dramatic. I love this game, especially when I've seen the updated ending, that's looking more emotional. The games is really great, and after I ended the orginal one, I can truly say that people saying that the original is way beter, I surely just missing the good old games, but the gaming industry is changing. I also miss the good old days of ps2, but i admit the fact that like any other media branch, gaming is in cinstant developpement. Mafia definitive edition ans RE 2 remake are by far my favourite remakes, an mafia definiive edition truly deserves a nomination at game awards.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hodnotiť Remake tejto starej klasiky je dosť ťažké
    Aj keď Hangar 13 mali ešte tažšiu úlohu.... Vytvoriť ho
    Hneď na začiatku hry je pár väčší aj menších zmien
    Miesto Tommyho príde do baru detektív Norman a hneď na začiatku sa už podľa novín čo prinesie vie že zabiť Morella pôjde len jednou cestou...
    Postavy sú prepracované... Niektoré majú pozmenený charakter - Hlavne Tommy,Sam,Paulie,Sára a Salieri...
    Ale napríklad Ralph už nieje len obyčajný koktavý mechanik ktorý vám len raz začas dohodí auto
    Čo sa misií týka
    V prvej misií je síce nepriateľov viac... Ale je omnoho ľahšie im uniknúť než to bolo v originále...
    Všetky misie sú celkovo skvelé no ku koncu idú strašne rýchlo za sebou že sa ani nenazdáte a zrazu ste v galerií...
    Závod je na extrémnu obtiažnosť ♥♥♥♥ ťažký ale hra viacej odpúšťa takže napríklad sa nemusíte báť že po viacerých nárazoch vám odpadne koleso...
    Vzťah Tommyho a Sáry je rozšírený o nejaké detaily ale nejak veľký dopad to na hru nemá...
    Dosť veľkou zmenou si prešiel koniec hry...

    **A TERAZ POZOR SPOILER**

    Tommy už na konci nepôsobí vôbec prekvapene keď za ním prídu Vito a Joe ale vypadá že dobre vedel že ten deň raz príde tak na otázku ''Pan Angelo?'' odpovie ''Ano'' s kľudom pripravený čeliť svojmu osudu ktorému tak dlho utekal... Nakoniec zomiera v kruhu svojej rodiny s vedomím že jeho rodina je konečne v bezpečí

    **KONIEC SPOILERU**

    Hru som prešiel dokopy 3 krát
    Raz na Normál na PS4
    A dvakrát na Classic (1x PC a 1x PS4)
    (Obe verzie PC aj PS4 mám dokončené aj so všetkými achievementami)

    Záver

    Trochu som sa bál ako sa po Mafií 3 Hangar 13 popasuje s týmto Remakom a mal som trochu obavy aby to neskončilo fiaskom
    Ale na moje prekvapenie Remake sa Hangaru 13 dosť podaril... Zmeny či už menšie alebo väčšie Remaku dosť prospeli ... Hlavne to strieľanie ktoré už je v originále na dnešnú dobu zastaralé (ale zároveň to nové už nerobí z Mafie tak ťažkú hru ako si ju pamätáme)
    Aj keď mám už Remake dokončený 3 krát určite si ho dám niekedy znovu

    P.S. Český dabing je ♥♥♥♥ úžasný...

    Sex scene was censored so it's -1, music also was worse than original so it's -1

    This is truly a remaster. The Performance on PS4/Pro is really bad, the gameplay often lags, but almost great visuals. The open world city is really nice crafted and all scenes has a lot of details. Hopefully we got a PS5 patch for this remaster.

    A solid remake. Hangar 13 has finally redeemed themselves after the failure of Mafia 3. This game is pretty much good enough for old and new people to get into the franchise. Everything ranging from shooting and driving is pretty fun and challenging. Definitely recommend checking it out.

    l think Mafia Definitive Edition is really good, but it just needs daily updates on the free ride. It would be cooler if we can customize the cars a little more, and maybe more weapons.

    Ever since it's release, fans have been begging for more content in Mafia Definitive Edition. There are three things we most desperately want.

Extra gameplay and missions which tell the largely untold stories of how Sam and Paulie came to be in the family or the beginnings of the war between Morello and Salieri areEver since it's release, fans have been begging for more content in Mafia Definitive Edition. There are three things we most desperately want. Firstly, we'd love a DLC, with well-loved characters from the game. Extra gameplay and missions which tell the largely untold stories of how Sam and Paulie came to be in the family or the beginnings of the war between Morello and Salieri are desperately wanted. As fans, we want to see more from these characters that are even more incredibly interesting and complex thanks to the improved story and script. It would be even better to see the actors of the main characters in the DE return to continue their roles in a DLC, including the likes of Andrew Bongiorno (Tommy), Glenn Taranto (Don Salieri), Don DiPetta (Sam), Jeremy Luke (Paulie), Steven Oliver (Frank), Bella Popa (Sarah) etc.

    Secondly, Photo Mode is a desperate want. The game is beautiful and many of the missions allow for incredible views, unique locations and incredible effects for photos. This mode will allow players to take the photos they desperately want in a game that calls for it because of its beauty. It will also open up more space for community creation, as fans will be able to share what they produce, keeping the game interesting and exciting.

    Furthermore, the fans would love to see more content and additional gameplay for Free Ride. These could include being able to use more transportation (trains, trams) and open more spaces for exploration that were used in the game like the prison, different character's homes, the airport, the race track just to name a few. Additions of clothing stores and other interactable shops/business would be welcome too. In terms of gameplay, the fans would love to be able to battle against other gangs in this mode that can be initiated by the player or in new side missions. These could include taking over a gang hideout, stopping booze/merchandise runs, infiltrating businesses etc Characters like Vincenzo and Lucas Bertone could give players missions to do.

    This game has always been loved ever since the original came out in 2002. Now that the game has been released again, fully remade with beautiful graphics, a perfected story and script, amazingly talented cast of actors and updated gameplay, we want to see more added so that we can enjoy it even more.

    If you would like to see more content and exciting gameplay for Mafia Definitive Edition, please sign and share so that Hangar 13 Games and 2K will see that we desperately want this to happen.

    Loved the game. It has a great story. It's not an open world game as we know them today as it's realesed quiet a while back, so I think the amount of content is ok (it's unfair to compare it with e.g. an Ubisoft open world). It's a game with a big focus on the story and that story is damn good!

    Mafia Definitive Edition is not just a change of graphics, it is a change of the whole game, some features are borrowed from Mafia 3, some characters are changed, but mafia remains mafia. Of course, some flaws flowed into the Definitive Edition, but they are so invisible that they do not affect the gameplay in any way.

    Falls du das orginale Mafia 1 mochtest, wirst du auch dieses Spiel lieben. Im groben und ganzen sind die Spiele identisch. Die Story ist 1 zu 1 übernommen und meiner Meinung nach noch sinnvoll ergänzt. Die Schauplätze variieren etwas und die Missionen können etwas abweichen vom orginalen.

    Aber erwarte hier kein GTA. Es ist immer noch eine lineare Story, die in einer Open World spielt.

Игра смогла удовлетворить как фанатов игры 2002 года, так и новых игроков, которые ещё не видели этот сюжет. Проиграв уже 5 часов, я без лишних мыслей ставлю 10. Игра легко может претендовать на игру года.Мои аплодисменты, Hangar 13. После, откровенно, плохой Mafia 3, вы смогли создать, не побоюсь этого слова, шедевр.

    3. Gameplay - Faithful to the original. I played on Classic mode. The race was brutally difficult and some firefights were a big challenge. For Mafia 4 you just have to figure out the balance between open world and story like this. Shooting and some movement animations could be made better. Driving is perfect on simulation mode.

    Overall this game is a solid 8 out of 10. However, everybody seems to forget that it is not a full price game and at 40$ it is most defiantly a 9 out of 10. I missed some of the old writing in the ending though! Hope this game sells well and you guys make Mafia 4 - more like this than Mafia 3.    … Expand

    Amazing remake! Having lots of fun with this game so far. This game is much better than Mafia 3 much respect to Hangar 13 for stepping up on there new mafia game from taking there time on finishing this game. The visuals and the gameplay is amazing especially on PS4 pro. If you loved the original mafia your definitely gonna like this a lot better. Highly recommended game to play!

    The mediocre critic reviews seem to forget that this was never meant to be a new game. It was a reimagining of an old one. And for that, it does it perfectly.

    Honestly I don't think this will be good idea to make re-make for this old pc game 00s. I was in love for the first Mafia, because it was incredible indie game that looks and feels like Grand Theft Auto. Mafia was one of my favs because I was from East Europe. Everyone in my class play this game, it was phenomenal at 2002. I like how this game was re-created. Cutscenes looks great.

    Mafia: Definitive Edition is the best remake of this year. There were a lot of doubts, fears, especially looking at Mafia 3. In principle, many were afraid of this. But what happened is beyond praise. Solid 10 out of 10. The work done by Hanger 13 is huge. Yes, of course, the plot was greatly altered, if you played the original it is very striking. But this story is also pretty good. AndMafia: Definitive Edition is the best remake of this year. There were a lot of doubts, fears, especially looking at Mafia 3.

With music, too, I wanted more of the original as it evokes a lot of pleasant memories, but the one that fits in quite well with the environment and is not bad in itself. And the atmosphere, it is simply incomparable! The way they recreated Lost Heaven is unbelievable. This is a beautiful city with a lot of drawn details. The only thing that was a little upset is that the narrative was greatly cut in terms of trips, and the mission was cut a little. Like with Morello's brother, Sergio. In vain. And the complexity, even at the classic level, still falls short of the original, especially in the race. But in General, the game is great. I do not regret the money spent, and Hanger 13 was rehabilitated in my eyes. Thank them for this masterpiece!… Expand

    En comparación con Mafia, este Remake ha cumplido perfectamente, los gráficos han mejorado mucho, sistema de cobertura, entre muchas otras mejoras. El juego tiene algunos bugs, pero no entorpecen la experiencia.

    Mejoras en cinemáticas, tiroteos, han convertido el juego de hace 20 años en uno prácticamente nuevo.

    Es una aventura de acción lineal, con una historia atrapante, buena conducción, tiroteos, cuerpo a cuerpo, sigilo, un mapa muy bien elaborado. Es muy realista, lo que provoca una gran inmersión en el juego.

    La duración es en mi opinión perfecta, unas 10-15 horas.

    Si no has jugado mafia es una buena oportunidad para jugarlo con mejores gráficos entre otras mejoras, y si ya lo has jugado es buen momento de revivirlo, lleno de nostalgia, porque la historia es la misma, aunque agregando diálogos para profundizar en la historia.

    No voy a hacer spoilers sobre la historia, os puedo asegurar que es muy buena, te sentirás todo un mafioso como su nombre indica.

The radio stations are very well written and created, listing to a live baseball broadcast while on my way to a hit really brings out what life might have been like in the mob during the 1930s. The gameplay is smooth and works well, a big improvement from mafia 3, cover system and the weapons work very well and classic difficulty not only adds plenty of challenges but also adds a unique feel that is only found in mafia. The game is a fantastic remake of the original 2002 classic, probably the best remake ever, absolutely outstanding game and hanger 13 should be proud of their efforts. Highly recommended to pick this game up as soon as you can, and step back into the shoes of Tommy Angelo and relive his story.… Expand

    In terms of its content, this is a rather modest game - apart from the main plot, there is practically nothing to do here, except to ride around the city in the "Walk" mode and look for collectibles.
