Criminal Ecology Trailer Released

2K Games have released a new trailer for Mafia 3, their upcoming open world action game. Titled Criminal Ecology, the video explains how the mob works in the game and how every branch is interconnected. 


The whole game leads towards a final showdown players will get to choose how they want to approach taking down the mafia. There will be different mafia operations across New Bordeaux – taking these down will make the later stages of the game easier. You won’t be forced to play the side missions and activities, but choosing to tackle them will pay off. 

For instance, when you’re working on weakening their construction businesses, you’ll get to interrogate foremen on the construction sites, who will give you new information. The info you acquire this way will help you draw out the underboss responsible for handling the business, giving you a clear shot at him. The game is supposed to be ripe with stuff like this.

Mafia 3 is set to release on October 7th, on PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. If you preorder it, you’ll get the Family Kick-Back pack as a bonus. This includes exclusive access to several items – namely, three cars and three weapons (a tommy gun, a shotgun and a sniper rifle).

E3 2016 Official Trailer Released

If you’re not there to watch it in person, you can take a look at the new trailer. It features every aspect of the game, from gunplay to driving and story elements, all condensed into a two minutes of footage.


Here’s the official press blurb:

There’s only so far down a man can go. Now one man will declare war on New Bordeaux’s Italian Mafia, taking it apart piece by crooked piece. Soon Sal Marcano will learn what it feels like to lose everything.

The game will take place in a fictional version of New Orleans, letting you take the role of Lincoln Cray, a man left for dead by the Italian mobsters. He miraculously survived and is now back with a vengeance. You’ll need to help him unite the smaller gangs under his wing and wrest control of the city out of the mafia’s hands. Expect lots of optional activities and side missions, car chases and gunfights around every corner.

Mafia 3 is going to be released on PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4 on October 7th. Preorders are already open, and if you decide to buy it before it’s out, you’ll get a pack of weapons and vehicles.

Family Kick-Back Trailer Released

It’s a weapon and vehicle pack called Family Kick-Back, and contains three of each. The video shows them in action.

It’s not much of an incentive, honestly. In games like these, most players change cars like they change their socks. The same goes for weapons. To each his own though. If the contents of this pack interest you, here’s exactly what you’ll get:

• Lassiter Leopard – the orange muscle car
• Smith Moray MX 100 – the elongated, Bond-looking one
• Berkeley Stallion – another muscle car
• Gator Shotgun – a shotgun with aligator skin on the stock and grip
• Camo Sniper – a rifle with a scope, wrapped in camouflage tarp
• Trench 1938 Submachine Gun – a standard Tommy gun

It’s not much, but if you were already planning a pre-purchase, it’s a nice extra. The game is going to be set in a New Bordeaux, a fictional version of New Orleans in the late 1960’s. You’ll get to play a betrayed man out for revenge, going after the Itallian mob. Your goal will be to ruin them and take over the city. 

Thomas Burke Trailer Released

look at the main characters. This time, it’s Thomas Burke’s turn. The short promo will give you a bit of insight into the Irish mobster’s hopes and aspirations, if you’re interested.

 
Truth be told, the video is quite underwhelming. It shows no new gameplay, and also reveals very little about the Irishman. He’s got a temper. He’s been wronged by the Italian mob. He has a moustache. The description posted alongside the trailer is equally unhelpful:

A lifetime of drinking, gambling and running rackets in “Bourbon City” has taken its toll on the man and the Irish mob he runs. Then the Italian Mafia muscled into his territory. But how long can a man be pushed before he starts pushing back?

We know that Burke will be one of your three lieutenants and that you’ll be able to give him control over certain parts of the city. In return, he’ll provide you with hired thugs to do your bidding. A gameplay video shown earlier also revealed he’ll get quite upset if you give more turf to the other underbosses. 

Official Soundtrack Revealed

2K Games have issued a press release boasting about the score and soundtrack for Mafia 3. The game will feature a huge official soundtrack, with over 100 songs. Most of them are great hits from the 60s, trying to represent the atmosphere of the American south and the turmoil of the era.

System Requiremnts Revealed

They shows what kind of setup you’ll want to build in order to enjoy the game in its full glory, or if you can start it at all.Once the game is out you’ll need at lest 50GB of your HD space free. For the rest of the specifications, read on.



Minimum System Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7 64-bit
• CPU: Intel I5-2500K, AMD FX-8120
• RAM: 6GB
• Video Memory: 2GB
• Graphics card: GeForce GTX 660 or AMD GPU: Radeon HD7870

Recommended System Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7 64-bit
• CPU: Intel I7-3770, AMD FX 8350 4.0 Ghz
• RAM: 8 GB AMD
• Video Memory: 4GB
• Graphics card: GeForce GTX 780 or Radeon R9 290X

It’s pretty standard fare, as far as modern PC games go. If your rig is less than two years old, you’ll be able to run it, and then some. The recommended specs are surprisingly low, though, so there’s a good chance many people will be able to play it on high settings.

In this installment of the Mafia series, you take on the role of former Vietnam soldier Lincoln Clay. The story is set in 1968, in the city of New Bordeaux (re-imagined New Orleans). Help Lincon Clay build a new crime organization and confront the Italian mob.

The World of New Bordeux - Weapons Trailer

gameplay trailer in the series of The World of New Bordeaux videos, called Weapons. It’s packed with action sequences and many weapons that we will be able to use in the game. The new trailer features John Donovan as he testifies before the U.S. Senate Committee regarding Lincoln Clay’s involvement in taking out criminal bosses in New Bordeaux. 

 
John says that Cassandra was the main supplier of weapons for Lincoln, since she had her own weapons smuggling ring. She had all kinds of Black Market weapons, such as assault rifles, pistols and many more. Cassandra is also known as the voodoo queen and she is a member of the Haitian Mob. In the trailer we can also see a grenade launcher, silenced pistols and sniper rifle with a night vision scope. The mobile weapons dealer and his red van will always be available for you if you need to restock and resupply. 

The leader of the Irish mob, Thomas Burke, is also in the trailer. He will supply Lincoln with all kinds of explosives, such as Molotov cocktails and powerful C4 charges. As you can see, you can put a C4 charge below a car and blow it up from a distance for some creative kills. Mafia 3 will feature shotguns, handguns, automatic weapons, rifles, special weapons and explosives. 

Cassandra, Thomas Burke and Vito Scaletta are Lincoln’s underbosses, and they will help him take down the Marcano Crime Family. When you capture a district in New Bordeaux, you’ll get to chose which underboss will take control. You should try to balance the control and appease all three. Keep in mind that one of your underbosses can turn against you, if they don’t agree with your decisions. 

Gameplay Demo Trailer Released

consists of pieces of old trailers with info about the game and New Bordeux, as well as footage from a mission that was showcased at Gamescom and Tokyo Game Show.


The game will let you play as Lincoln Clay, a murderous psychopath hell-bent on revenge. You’ll start out small, but after joining forces with Vito Scaletta, Burke and Cassandra, you’ll start taking over the city and causing mayhem. 

The developers are pushing hard for us to see the city itself as the main character. It will consist of ten districts, each with their own flavor.

• The Bayou is a swamp where the mob distills moonshine, smuggle weapons and make corpses disappear.
• Delray Hollow is Lincoln’s old neighborhood, now run by the Dixie Mob, a band of pimps and drug dealers.
• Frisco Fields is the ric part of town. That’s where the old money is. It houses the university, white supremacists and PCP labs.
• Downtown is where you can best see the modernization of New Bordeaux – skyscrapers are built next to historical locations, while the mob blackmails local politicians into turning a blind eye to their activities.

The mission deals with killing Tony Derazio, an accountant for the mafia. There are two main approaches you can take – either go through the main hall, guns ablaze, or steal a limo and sneak in. The person playing the demo opted for the latter, using a silenced pistol and stealthy takedowns to worm their way into the underboss’ lair. As they reached the upper floors, they were discovered, so they switched to louder, more deadly options.

Mafia 3 is going to be released on October 7th, on PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. If you preorder it, you’ll get the Family Kick-Back pack.

Revnge Trailer Released

The new video is called Revenge, and it shows off the events that lead up to the demise of Lincoln’s old gang.


After getting back from serving in the Vietnam War, Lincoln Cray was happy to see his friends again.Everything was going well – he was a loved member of the community, and they welcomed him back with open arms. Sadly, the family became endebted to the Itallian mafia. The amount of money was no trifle, and the mob decided to wipe them all out and take over their part of town instead of waiting for a payment.

But they were careless. The bullet just grazed Lincoln’s head. It left a nasty scar, but didn’t do any lasting damage. Once he got well enough to get out of bed, he decided he’ll take over the town and have his vengeance on the mafia.

It’s a pretty thin excuse – they keep telling us that Lincoln is hurt, that he’s lost everything he ever loved, but all we get to see is a murderous psychopath who just got an excuse to go on a killing spree. As with many other protagonists in games of this kind, Lincoln is not an easy person to identify with – at least for now.

Of course, it’s all just promotional material. The game’s script might paint a different picture altogether, but the trailers are not a great start. We’ll know for sure whether it’s a tragic story of family, loyalty and betrayal once the game is out. It’s planned for release on October 7th, on PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. There’s a collector’s edition as well, with dog tags, artwork and the soundtrack on vynil, if you’re into that kind of thing.

Will Mafia 3 Have Multiplayer?

 is an open world action game that lets players build their own criminal empires on the streets of a fictional city. A question which naturally comes to mind is whether it will have a multiplayer mode, or give us a chance to play coop with friends. After all, it’s what we’ve come to expect from this kind of game. Read on to find out will Mafia 3 have multiplayer.


The short answer is: No, it won’t.

Mafia 3 Multiplayer

The official spiel is the game is going to be strictly singleplayer, because the developers wanted to focus on developing one character, on telling his story. During an interview with GameReactor, Haden Blackman said:

We’re very focused on building up Lincoln as a character, so the game is really an unabashed single-player game. There is no multiplayer. But that’s really because we wanted to focus on putting you in this role of Lincoln, really develop him as a character, really nailing the cover-based shooting, the physics-based driving model. I love multiplayer games, but being able to play a game that’s a very curated story that I’m helping to craft along the way, those are my favourite types of games, so that’s what we’re building.

This doesn’t mean multiplayer is off the table – the game might get a multiplayer update after launch, like another big open-world action franchise did. It might depend on the sales numbers. It might depend on how vocal the fans are. It also might never happen. Officially, it’s as singleplayer as can be. But we can still hope. Just keep in mind what your purchase entails – a sprawling singleplayer campaign in a big city – no more, no less.

Mafia 3 is going to launch on October 7th, on Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC. If you preorder it, you’ll get the Family Kick-Back pack, with some fancy extra weapons and vehicles.
