- 7.0The game definitely shows its age with frustrating controls and vehicle handling, but the next story beat is enough of an excuse to continue pressing forward. Mafia: Definitive Edition's narrative and everything that comes with it holds up to this day, and it's one worth revisiting even if you know it like the back of your hand.
- 8.1Mafia: Definitive Edition is how a remake should be done. By taking and meticulously remoulding the original game, Mafia: Definitive Edition sings with a deliciously authentic 1930’s gangster shooter experience that’s enriched to no end by a chapter-based story that keeps the focus on the story and its characters.
- 8.0Mafia: Definitive Edition is a remarkable reimaging of the original title that flexes its muscles in graphical fidelity and storytelling but falls flat in other areas. While I fully enjoyed my time with it, its mediocre third-person shooting mechanics, abysmal AI, and erratic difficulty can sometimes be a test of perseverance. It is a reminder of the rather old game buried under the shiny new graphical improvements.
- Mafia: Definitive Edition is stuck between a rock and a hard place then: neither a slice of nostalgia nor a particularly good modern experience in its own right. Temper your expectations and there’s a 10-hour campaign to enjoy, but it’s hard not to feel like this is a missed opportunity all around.
- Mafia: Definitive Edition is a great game that captures the story of the original Mafia game in a modern jacket. The story is amazing, the chapters are pieced together with interesting cutscenes brought to you by great voice actors. The gameplay is smooth, feels modern, yet has these classical elements so it still feels like the old game. Thanks to the different difficulty settings it welcomes all kinds of players to enjoy the story that most couldn’t before due to the game being too difficult. The graphics are nice and the music takes you back to the 1930s.

Mafia: Definitive Edition
Este Mafia es un título de mundo abierto bastante particular. El mundo abierto como tal es un mero escenario para una típica pero muy interesante historia de gánsters. Ésto junto a la recreación de la época, la banda sonora y el apartado grafico hacen del conjunto algo que mantiene enganchado de principio a fin. En el apartado jugable es donde se muestra más irregular con unas mecánicas de disparo que varían poco, una IA mediocre y una conducción a la que lleva un tiempo acostumbrarse. Al final es un gran juego para los amantes de las buenas historias.
This is how you make A Remake!
I've been hearing about this game since it was launched. Finally, I was able to give this a try. I am impressed with how they remade the entire game! Like really! From the visuals, soundtracks, and mechanics. I enjoyed just simply driving around not messing with anything. It actually immersed me in many ways. I even imagined that I am inside the game itself. How I wish some companies can achieve this level of detail in terms of how they remaster a gamae.

the best
i loved the game and how the game story gets in you. You never know what is happening next but only one thing i dont like there isnt much to do after you finish the game
Never played the original. I think it is a master piece.
Really good remake and solid game overall; great mechanics even tho its basically Mafia 3 but mechanics there wasn't bad so why fix it if it ain't broke. I personally don't like the ending but I understand the game has to stay the same etc. So the story makes sense. The protagonist is quite solid and I really like him! Basically a family man and had a good reason to join Mafia from the poor background, chased by the Sallieries rivals, wrong place wrong time when he met Paulie & Sammy and so on. ++++++++; Gameplay (7.5/10) Mechanics(8/10) Setting(10/10) Its a Mafia game I love it!(10/10) Good way to join Mafia 1&2 together(9/10) Graphics(10/10) Cars& addition of motorcycles(10/10) Big beautiful world(10/10) ----; Day one bugs (5/10) Story ending(1/10) Limited ways you can explore the world during the story(2/10) Spending to much time in the vehicle (1/10) Overall; Great experience I had lots of fun playing this game; a must play if you a mafia fan. Great remake & makes you excited for mafia 4 if they ever decided to make one.
