The release date of Mafia: The Old Country was accidentally announced in a post by 2K. The information that the game would be released on August 8, 2025 was briefly included on the official blog page on Steam.
Mafia: The Old Country release date confirmed
Although the post was immediately removed, the announcement was recorded by the gaming community with a screenshot. The post clearly stated that the game would be released on the same date for PC, Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.
Developed by Hangar 13 and distributed by 2K, Mafia: The Old Country stands out as a production that returns the series to its roots. The new game, which draws attention with its atmosphere reminiscent of the first Mafia game, will this time move the story from America to Italy.
Mafia: The Old Country holds an important place in the 2025 game calendar. Due to giant productions such as GTA 6, which is expected to be released at the end of this year, many publishers have decided to release their big projects before the last quarter of the year.
2K’s release of Mafia: The Old Country in August is also in line with this strategy. The game, which will take place in the lands where the mafia was born, will abandon the open world structure and prefer a linear narrative. This approach is similar to the first two games in the Mafia series.
The latest installment of the series, which has gained an important place in the gaming world, has come to the agenda with its release date before it has even been officially announced. So what do you think about this? You can share your opinions with us in the comments section below.
