Developer Hangar 13 is gearing up to launch TopSpin 2K25 later this month, but it’s not the only game the studio is working on. In 2022, the developer officially confirmed that it was working on the next instalment in the Mafia franchise, and allegedly, it’s going to be announced soon.
That’s as per Kurakasis, a prominent leaker on Twitter, who recently claimed that “a few days ago”, Take-Two Interactive – parent company of Mafia publisher 2K – “began preparations for an announcement regarding the Mafia series”. While it’s unknown when exactly the announcement will arrive, the leaker estimates based on the timeframe for fellow Take-Two title Judas’ trailer and preceding preparations, it should be “about 3-4 weeks” from now.
Leaks have claimed that Sony has a PlayStation-related event planned for May. Perhaps we’ll hear something about the next Mafia game there.
Little is known about Mafia 4, other than job listings suggesting that it’s being developed on Unreal Engine 5. Leaks have claimed that it will be set in Sicily as a prequel to the series’ first game and tell the story of Don Salieri in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
