Don’t ya love a teaser trailer for an announcement that’s additionally a trailer for a game that’s popping out in three months? Classic. 2K have put up a brand new Mafia trailer in the present day to announce that they’ll make an actual announcement subsequent week. At least a part of the reveal seems to be to be a remake of the unique gangster ’em up Mafia game, in response to a Microsoft Store web page that’s already floating round.
For in the present day, there’s only a teaser trailer of yer mafia males all talkin’ about “family” in extraordinarily severe Chicago accents. The actual announcement is to come back subsequent Tuesday, May 19th at 5pm BST / 12pm EDT / 9am PDT over on the Mafia website, 2K say.
I don’t suppose 2K meant to have a retailer web page reside but, however the hyperlink to at least one is already circulating. On the Microsoft Store web page, 2K say that the Mafia: Definitive Edition is “re-made from the ground up,” and that it’s been “faithfully recreated, with expanded story, gameplay and original score. This is the Mafia you remembered and much more.” The screenshots of shiny olden taxis and nighttime shipyards are fairly flash, I’ll admit.
The teaser trailer above refers back to the whole Mafia trilogy so it’s in all probability protected to take a position that uh, they aren’t simply remastering the unique Mafia game. Are they remaking all three? Even the one which got here out simply 4 years in the past? Yeah, that appears like a correctly 2020 factor to do.
The Microsoft Store has Mafia: Definitive Edition slotted for an August 28 launch date.
Oh look, I used to be incorrect and the teasing really started with a tweet teasing a teaser trailer for an actual trailer for an announcement of a game popping out in three months.
