Absolutely masterful Spanish dubbing
A cinematic narrative that moves you from the very first minute.
Enzo Favala as an authentically human protagonist
Graphs that constantly surprise
A cohesive experience from start to finish
Impeccable narrative pace without artificial filler

Generación Xbox
Cinematic staging: carefully recreates Sicily in 1900 with attention to detail and remarkable artistic direction.
Captivating story: Enzo's descent into organized crime is told with strength and authenticity.
Reduced price, Spanish dubbing and without filling.
Marked linearity: although intentional, this can leave a feeling of lack of freedom or exploration between missions.
Irregular enemy AI: some enemies react clumsily in certain shootouts or remain exposed in an illogical manner.

A very well-crafted story, mainly of first-class quality.
Varied game and overall excellent pace
Atmospheric and vast gaming world
Atmospheric soundtrack and powerful sound effects

Appropriate game length for a story-focused game (around 15 hours in "Normal" mode)
Weak AI (especially in stealth mode)
Game design can sometimes be conservative or even outdated.

GamersGlobal
Good tutorial
Three selectable levels of difficulty
Reactive control with game controller
Possible chapter replays before the end of the story.
A very good mafia story...
Many things to collect and unlock in the world...
A good pace in the countryside
Well-written dialogues and cinematically staged intermediate sequences.
Cover shooting battles with a good dose of punch
Spectacular hunting/chase sequences
Stealth mechanics and knife combat increase the diversity of gameplay.
Very good graphics, often photorealistic with many details and a great draw distance (PC)
Actors digitized by motion capture and performance capture
Mainly first-class character animations with fine facial expressiveness.
Atmospheric and catchy original soundtrack, propelling the fight.
Rich and often realistic sound effects
Several language options available on board, including a good synchronization in German.
... even if partly predictable
"Open world" is in itself just a simple (beautiful) backdrop.
Conservative game design up to outdated
KI in incompetent Stealth point
Many graphical bugs, but almost exclusively of small size.
The cutscenes also run on PC with a maximum of 30 frames per second.
The sound in the German version is a bit too loud.

The story is a great tribute to mafia cinema.
The fantastic and well-kept atmosphere of Sicily.
His direct and concise approach, a return to the roots of the saga.
A world that sometimes feels too limited.
The mechanics of discretion, simple and unambitious.
Some frame drops that tarnish the experience at certain specific moments.

Journal du Geek
The incredible atmosphere (universe, map, characters, context...)
Graphically, quite nice thanks to UE5
The abandonment of open-world in favor of a return to a very linear narrative solo experience.
The charisma, dubbing, and acting of the characters (main and secondary)
The very cool map that fits perfectly into the story
The gunfights, driving (in a car), and galloping (on horseback) are quite convincing.
12 hours of average lifespan for the scenario, simple, effective and to the point, we don't get bored and it doesn't drag on.
A few minor technical issues (occasional frame rate drops, popping in certain cutscenes)
Gameplay still too rigid and too classic
The AI is lagging behind
The knife boss fights are very repetitive.

GameOver
The magnificent representation of Sicily in 1900.
Mature and neat writing, with careful characters.
A duration of 10 to 12 hours is sufficient to provide a complete experience and avoid unnecessary "lulls".
The slow pace can be tiring.
Stealth is outdated and the shooting is typical and simplistic.

N-Gamz
Charming characters like Isabella and Cesare.
Stunning and immersive set designs
An exploration mode to collect collectibles at your leisure
A compelling story about the rise to power of a "nobody"
Exciting gunfights
An affordable price of 50?
Some incredible music (although sometimes a bit too discreet)
A top-notch French dubbing
"Sicilian" dubbing integrated
A cinematic aspect that the saga had lost with Mafia 3.
A historical period and a geographical location rarely seen in a video game.
A world filled with details in every direction...
... but unfortunately too little interactive
Frame rate drops even in smooth mode
Highly scripted racing phases
A not really rewarding exploration in the main missions
Simple and repetitive infiltration phases
Too few secondary activities
A little short (12h)

Mature and polished writing, with well-defined characters.
Beautiful representation of Sicily in 1900.
Interesting and original knife management.
Unique soundtrack and dubbing...
Sometimes, the dubbing is too complex for non-Sicilians and the performance is not always perfect.
Some sporadic technical issues and some anachronistic details.
AI with low intelligence that makes infiltration obsolete and shooting unsatisfying.

Traditional and not very innovative game in combat.

Absolutely dense and intoxicating atmosphere
Unprecedented and fascinating Sicilian setting around 1900.
Excellent script and excellent English actors.
Strict focus on the story without the clutter of an open world.
Phenomenal sound design, especially for vehicles.
Clean and robust technical experience on PC (UE5)
Clever connections with predecessors for fans.
The plot is quite predictable for fans of the genre.
The shooting and stealth mechanics are solid, but conventional.
Occasionally, a weak and exploitable enemy AI.
Inconsistent interaction possibilities (for example, bottles)
The sustainability system for knives seems useless and artificial.
The grand racing mission is way too short.

A solo adventure, linear and with a well-told story.
There is everything one would expect from an action game with open world elements.
Excellent soundtrack and the dubbing in Sicilian is a great discovery.
The graphic design, especially for the characters, is sometimes remarkable.
All gameplay mechanics are derived and basic.
Knife duels quickly become repetitive.
Some minor technical issues related to youth
Someone could complain about the lack of a "traditional" Italian dubbing.

A compelling and immersive story that goes back to the DNA of the first Mafia game. Charismatic and well-written characters. The Sicilian atmosphere beautifully recreated. Attractive graphics thanks to Unreal Engine 5. Successful cinematic staging. A soundtrack that hits the mark. Perfect English voiceover and immersive Sicilian dubbing. Sold for 50? in digital format, 30? in physical format.
The French version, on the other hand, lacks conviction... Weak gunplay Completely outdated enemy AI Archaic and uninteresting infiltration Repetitive and predictable knife fights Stiff and outdated animations (15 years behind) Too much hand-holding (markers, wall vision, etc.) Story a bit too predictable, lacking boldness

GamesCreed
The game's recreation of early 1900s Sicily is breathtaking and packed with historical detail that enhances immersion.
Enzo's story, though familiar, is emotionally compelling thanks to excellent motion capture and voice performances.
Driving mechanics are smooth, with a satisfying lineup of vintage vehicles and a return of the fan-favorite car encyclopedia.
The narrative-focused design keeps the pacing tight and avoids filler, making for a focused, cinematic experience.
Authentic sound design and period-accurate music enrich the world and elevate the storytelling.
Combat mechanics, especially cover shooting and stealth, feel outdated and lack innovation or depth.
Knife fights, meant as boss encounters, become repetitive quickly and don't evolve over time.
The open world is visually stunning but lacks meaningful activities or interactivity outside the main missions.
Gameplay systems are largely recycled from Mafia: Definitive Edition with minimal iteration or improvement.
Players looking for modern AI complexity or replay value may find the 12-hour runtime too short for the price.

Solid shooting game, classic cover mechanics
Optional exploration, unlockable bonuses
technically with some weaknesses (jerky movements, necessary restarts)
Some parts of the story are somewhat cliché.
Gestures, synchronization, and dialogues are not always successful.
few playful ideas, only superficial stealth

TestingBuddies
Beautiful gaming world
Atmosphere of the early 20th century perfectly captured.
A very successful mafia story
The open world is dedicated to history.
Atmospheric soundtrack and professional dubbing
Innovative close combat system
Stealthy approach consistent
Horse racing as a cool addition
Game duration is quite short.
Open world mainly in the background
Faces in the game a little stiff
No footprints in the sand
The possibilities of the DualSense are barely being used.
