The last game revealed at Gamescom 2024’s Opening Night Live event is the latest game in the Mafia series, called Mafia: The Old Country. According to Nick Baynes, president of developer Hangar 13, they will reveal more about the game in December – possibly at The Game Awards.
The trailer shows a beautiful Italian town and several weapons familiar to fans of the Mafia series lying on a table. A voice says, “This thing of ours is a brotherhood. There is no betrayal or deceit among us. Would you like to dedicate yourself and your life to this family?” According to Baynes, the game is set in 20th century Sicily and explores the origins of the Italian mafia.
Previous games in the Mafia series were all set in America, in the fictional cities of Lost Heaven, Empire Bay, and New Bordeaux, and explored the various player characters’ encounters with the mafia. Hangar 13 confirmed that it will make a fourth Mafia game in 2022.
