Mafia: Definitive Edition Reviews
Mafia: Definitive Edition is an engrossing and fun way to dive into the Mafia series.
Mafia: Definitive Edition is genuinely one of the best remakes of this generation. It gets so much right in terms of staying true to the source material and preserving what makes it so awesome. Sadly, that only ends up hurting it due to a dated mission structure and poor AI. Still, it was fantastic to be able to play such an updated version of the classic.
If Mafia: Definitive Edition‘s gameplay hasn’t moved far beyond 2002, it’s still a gorgeous, reverent glow-up which should satisfy fans both old and new.
Overall, Mafia: Definitive Edition really is a fantastic update to Mafia, foils and all.
It would be great without some "engineering" problems. But i still can't say "this remake is bad". Don Salieri sends his regards.

Mafia: Definitive Edition may be too short with today’s open world games standards to justify that price tag but it’s a full-on remake of one of the best gangster stories ever told in all forms of media. It has enough surprises for old fans and it’s modern enough for the newer generation of gamers to take a leap of faith and buy it.

Mafia: Definitive Edition is a two-sided coin. On one side we find stunning graphics and a great plot that still manages to captivate us after 18 years, while on the other side we find some meaningful shortcomings that could have been avoided re-designing some aspects of the original game. Despite this, it's still a suggested buy both for people who loved the original game and for the ones that never played it.

The Mafia remake makes the original 2002 title obsolete by improving and upgrading everything, which is the whole point. Archaic gameplay, tropes, and controls are refurbished to make the new game and its cast all the better while preserving the core of Tommy’s rise and subsequent fall in the game’s thrilling narrative.
When it's all said and done, Mafia: Definitive Edition earns its name. It's the definitive Mafia videogame
For series veterans and first-timers, Mafia: Definitive Edition is a labor of love for more than just the original game, but for the Mafia community whose support made this game possible. Series veterans will also take note of the changes in the story. The changes aren’t groundbreaking by any stretch of the imagination, just the framing of some story elements have been changed to make the story more in line with the current series of games. This is yet another amazing remake that fully embraces many of the things that made the original so special to so many people.
