This news comes on the heels of 2K Games announcing that a new Mafia game is in the works back in May. Though the new game is still in early development, what we do know is that it will be made using Unreal Engine 5 instead of the Mafia III engine for the remaster. We also know that its internal codename is Nero and that it is expected to be a prequel to the Mafia trilogy.
In contrast to the wackier antics of 2K Games’ Grand Theft Auto series, Mafia tells a more grounded story that focuses on old-school crime families, harkening to classic films like Goodfellas and The Godfather. You play as Tommy Angelo, a lowly cab driver in the 1930s, as he is thrown into the criminal underbelly of Illinois and transforms into one of the most feared mobsters in the Salieri family.
