Game 1 of 5
01 of 05
It’s 1930. After an inadvertent brush with the mafia, cabdriver Tommy Angelo is reluctantly thrust into the world of organized crime. Initially, he is uneasy about falling in with the Salieri family, but soon the rewards become too big to ignore.
Before you press start
Each game has its own lead and city, so any entry stands up alone. Release order shows the series grow. The Old Country is a prequel set in 1900s Sicily, but it needs no homework and makes a fair first stop too.
More than the main path
Daniel Vávra's series treats its cities as period pieces: a Chicago stand-in in the 1930s, postwar Empire Bay, a New Orleans-inspired 1968. Hangar 13 took over with Mafia III, then went back to the beginning with The Old Country, a Sicilian prequel to the first game.

The storyline for Mafia II is a gritty drama and chronicles the rise of Vito Scaletta, the son of Sicilian immigrants. As the game progresses, Vito joins the Falcone crime family and becomes "a made man" along with his best friend Joe Barbaro.
When the credits roll
Vito Scaletta has started to make a name for himself on the streets of Empire Bay as someone who can be trusted to get a job done. Together with his buddy Joe, he is working to prove himself to the Mafia, quickly escalating up the family ladder with crimes of larger reward, status and consequence… the life as a wise guy isn’t quite as...
