Mafia III Celebrates its 10th anniversary with current-gen updates

Today, 2K and Hanger 13 are celebrating Mafia III's 10th annivercary with current gen updates on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Whether you've already spent hours methodically eliminating the mobsters who betrayed your surrogate family, or you've yet to experience Lincoln's journey as he wages war on the Italian Mafia, this is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the treacherous underworld of New Bordeaux. Choose your own playstyle—brute force, blazing guns, or stalk-and-kill tactics—to tear down the Mafia, building a new criminal empire with the help of underbosses who may or may not be worthy of your trust.

Mafia III: Definitive Edition includes the main game, all Story DLC (Faster, Baby!, Stones Unturned, and Sign of the Times) and Bonus Packs (the Family Kick-Back Pack and the Judge, Jury & Executioner Weapons Pack) bundled together. It's also included in Mafia: The Omertà Collection's four-game bundle; you can learn more about Mafia: The Omertà Collection here. If you own Mafia: The Omertà Collection on PlayStation®5 and XBOX Series X|S, you'll now have access to your platform's version of Mafia III: Definitive Edition.

Highlights

Smoother mission progression: We addressed several spots where players reported getting stuck and unable to make progress in missions like "Get Enzo Conti," "Kill Tommy Marcano," and the Epilogue. No more dead ends when you're trying to finish the story. We also addressed reported crashes that could happen while driving into the Wharf, shooting a gas canister during "Destroy Boosted Car Shipment," or unlocking certain achievements mid-drive.
Improvements to Achievement tracking: Addressed reported issues with progress towards certain Achievements to ensure that your accomplishments are accurately tracked.
Better NPC and companion behavior: Characters like Alcee, Father James, and others didn't always behave as expected during missions, sometimes blocking your progress. We've cleaned up their behavior so missions flow the way they're meant to.
