Experience Mafia: The Old Country Without Giving Up Your Life or Spending More Than $50 This August—Unless You Want a Limo!

Alright, so here we are. Mafia: The Old Country finally has a release date pinned down. Circle August 8, 2025, on your calendar if that’s your thing. Or maybe you just set a reminder on your phone—whatever works. Oh, and 2K’s got you covered if you’re worried about being sucked into an endless time void. They promise this one’s a lean tale. So, your social life is safe. Kind of.

Now, here’s the kicker. This date isn’t exactly fresh news. It’s been doing the rounds since last summer, showing up like an unwanted dinner guest. April saw it leak through a Steam pop-up. Oops, I guess?

Fast forward—or maybe just swivel a bit—to the deal. The Old Country lands on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S in August. And just in case GTA 6 was throwing a wrench in your plans, fear not. Mafia remains unfazed. Standard edition sets you back $49.99 (or £44.99 if you’re across the pond). Fancy an extra splash of digital bling? Toss another ten bucks for the deluxe version.

And what’s in that shiny deluxe package, you ask? Meet the Padrino Pack, Gatto Nero Pack, plus digital goodies like the game’s score and artbook. Mostly it’s costumes and weapons, with a car and, surprise, a horse thrown in. Picture yourself rolling up in an Eckhart Speciale Limousine. Swanky, right? Might be too swanky—heads up on the jealousy from the big boss.

So, pre-orders carry a cherry on top with the Soldato Pack. Think of it as bonus bling to sweeten the deal. Watch the trailer if you’ve ever dreamt of running amok with mafia misfits—shooting, racing, you know the drill.

And just a heads-up—Italy might not want me wandering around. Something about “crimes against culture”? But I get it. I really do.

Anyway, 2K’s head honcho, David Ismailer, keeps it real. They’re catering to folks who like gripping stories without losing entire weekends. No sprawling epics here, just polished narratives that fit with whatever else you’re gaming on the side.

So, you thinkin’ about grabbing Mafia: The Old Country this summer? Toss your thoughts this way. Or don’t. Your call.
