Mafia at The Game Awards 2024
2K games confirmed the presence of Mafia: The Old Country at the Game Awards and this has got many fans hyped up to see a glimpse of the game.

The trailer showcased the setting of the game going back to the origins of the Italian Mafia in Sicily during the 1900s.

With a constant debate if players will be able to play as Don Salieri during the events of the Old Country.
