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.

Very great, I remember playing the original a bit so I had a good grip on the story. The game is very good, story is great as well as gameplay, visuals, pace and events structure, things don't escalate fast and not too slow. It's ending is just like any mafia/gangster movie or film. Played from the 20th March till 23rd March 2026.8 hours and 30 minutes played.

Definitive Edition is a great remake. Hangar 13 respects the work of Illusions Softworks and expands it to improve every aspect of the game.

We especially like how well the developers preserve the spirit of the original, while at the same time extending the story in a meaningful way.

I can’t lie, I don’t know if modern games just have weaker stories or if this game was just way ahead of its time, but the story in this game is amazing. Every little detail feels well made, and playing it gave me the same kind of feeling I had when I first played gta V, with those strong vibes, but at the same time it still has its own unique **** whole 1900s atmosphere is so good, and even the driving became one of my favorite parts. I honestly underestimated this game at first, but it ended up surprising me a **** gameplay is also really solid. I know some people complain about it, but I was never bored. If you ever wondered what being in the mafia was like, this game really gives you that feeling in a fun and cinematic **** I’m saying this as someone who plays a lot of games, I don’t praise every game like this. This was one of the best gaming experiences I’ve had, and it really felt like going back in time.

I don’t know how good the classic Mafia was, but this game gave me almost the same feeling I had in my childhood watching Once Upon a Time in America or Scarface. Anyway, if you like the aesthetics of the 1930s, you’ll definitely enjoy the atmosphere this game brings you into. Totally recommended.

If you're a fan of the original Mafia then you should give this remake a try. It captures the spirit of the game while also making it a thoroughly modern shooter. If you never played Mafia, then this doesn't feel like a nostalgia project but a new game. The split structure of the story mode and open world may be unusual when lined up against its current competitors, but if you find yourself lost in large open worlds like Assassin's Creed and are looking for something that has more respect for your time, Mafia may be for you.

Mafia definitive Edition is a good remake. Visually, the game is sublime and the few small additions, especially concerning the driving are appreciable. If this 2020 version suffers from a lot of technical problems and cannot completely hide that the original game is 18 years old, the quality of writing and the mafia atmosphere offer a great moment of immersion in the underworld.

The remake stays true to the original, but storytelling and mechanics feel terribly outdated, giving you the impression that this is more of a remaster not reaching its full potential.

Устаревший геймплей, достаточно посмотреть как игрофильм, чтобы получить самое интересное из всего происходящего на экране.

An okay game with outdated missions no one would ever fix because that would make it playable. Don’t buy mafia old country unless you want a lazy game stitched together by hacks
