It feels like we've known about developer Hangar 13's next Mafia entry being in development for years now. What started off as a strong set of rumours and speculation was given weight by a new set of trademarks hinting at another instalment would be on its way, but now it appears the studio is gearing up for a reveal in the near future.
As part of 2K's latest earnings report, the publisher stated that the company will go public with two of its upcoming projects. Those being Hangar 13's next game and another title from 2K Silicon Valley, lead by Dead Space director Michael Condrey. Announcements of the two games are said to arrive over "the coming months", according to Twitter's Shinobi602.
Due to the timing of these two reveals, we have to assume that they're both PlayStation 5 games. A PlayStation Meeting reveal perhaps, if that ever takes place? Potentially. Are you interested in playing a fourth Mafia entry? Have a smoke in the comments below.

i'd take Mafia II remaster over Mafia IV
1 was good. 2 was excellent. 3 I didn't like. I'm interested in a fourth if they take it back to NY and the 5 families. If it's a continuation of the thirds storyline then nah I'll pass.
I want to see a follow up on mafia 2 as they left in the car and no idea what went from there, although I imagine something bad but at least could have extended the story into another one. Would like a remaster
Mafia 3 had a decent enough story I guess but gameplay wise it was like OG Assassin's Creed, the same mission over and over and over. If they can make it actually interesting to play it'd be a start.
I've always loved Mafia games, I think I played every one of them day one. First 1 on PC, 2nd on the PS3 and part 3 on the PS4.
3 was a downgrade over 2 in every way not so sure about this...
All 3 Mafia games were enjoyable with 2 my favorite. Mafia 4 i hope would be more like 2 in story and characters. My desired choice of time and location is Vegas 1960-62.
I'd just love a return the world of the first game. I loved the first one, with its perfect setting within the classic era and all. They could reimagine the whole map and make it much larger ❤❤❤
Oh nice. Loved M3.
Would probably be cross gen right? Full ps5 focus would be awesome.
Why are people always asking for remastered? 🙄 new games of course.
I really enjoyed Mafia 3. The story was amazing but like others said the missions were so repetitive. But I stayed for the story. And that soundtrack, oh boy that soundtrack! Capping fools to 'Baby Love' never got old 🤣
If the rumours from a couple of years ago are true, then we could be expecting a Las Vegas setting during the 70s. Casino (movie) vibes.
Oooh yes please. While Mafia 3 had its frustrations, it still did some really good things and it's one of my favourite series.
Mafia 3 has a good story but it's too damn repetitive and it had lots of glitches during its first 6 months.
I think Mafia 3 is decent enough, but I've not played enough of it so can't comment on the repetitiveness. I do know the soundtrack is bl**dy brilliant though!
I loved this game aside the repetitiveness. Almost had the platinum except for one senseless trophy - get 5 headshots in 5 seconds. And there were things it did right I think even GTA could learn from, like brake lights staying on automatically when you come to a stop and being able to leave tires at either left or right position after parking.
@LiamCroft "A PlayStation Meeting reveal perhaps, if that ever takes place?" This gave me a good laugh. It really is starting to feel like this is gonna be a lackluster reveal or it's not gonna happen.
On the article. I'm stoked for a new Mafia game. Hope they remaster the first one from PS2. I'm really curious what this one with 2K Silicon Valley is with the Dead Space director leading it. 🤔
More Mafia is a good thing for me loved all the games.
@JJ2 remasters are asked for so much because before Microsoft and the backwards compatability they started there was no way to play your old games on console in a higher resolution and better framerate. What they accomplished is pretty incredibly and never been done before. Here's to hoping Sony can pull something like that off. I would be sooo pumped.
