Such a let down after the Mafia 1 remake.
Mafia 2 and 3 needs the remake treatment the Mafia 1 got.
And change the story altogether too, i don't want to be racist but the game forced me to be a racist.
5/10.

Great game but with two big caveats. The story, the characters, the world, the weapons are actually all great. I’ve enjoyed them a lot. The biggest problem with the game is the repetitiveness. There is no linear story like in Mafia 1 and 2 but rather you can choose the approach yourself. But that means every mission is basically the same. You do the same thing over and over again (for more than 20 hours). Kill someone > has to get info about him > do X local missions > kill the person > now you can do the same again > now you can do the same again etc. This is somewhat ruins the otherwise good story and characters. The other thing I disliked is the lack of quick travel. Mafia 2 has a skip non-obligatory (story) driving option and this game definitely would have been better with that because there is a lot of driving needed that adds nothing to the game. Apart from these yeah it’s a good game, great soundtrack too!

Sadly I cant really recommend this game. Mafia I and II are some of the most interesting and immersive games Ive played. With a story I adore, making this game feel as if its a counterpart to the more famous Yakuza/Like A Dragon Series in quite a few regards.

Issue with Maifa III is, that entire thing is dropped.

From small staples like the driving speed limit removed, to the missions being way more repetitive. This game feels more like Mafia II DLC instead of its own game.

Mafia III: Definitive Edition, including its DLCs, offers a complete narrative-driven experience set in the 1960s-inspired New Bordeaux. The game follows Lincoln Clay’s revenge journey against the Italian Mafia, delivering a gritty story about betrayal, race, and revenge.

Gameplay
The open-world setting combines stealth, shooting, and vehicle mechanics, but mission design often feels repetitive. The Definitive Edition includes improved visuals but still suffers from occasional technical issues.

DLCs
The DLCs (Faster, Baby!, Stones Unturned, Sign of the Times) expand the story with new missions, mechanics, and areas. These add depth, variety, and emotional weight, balancing the base game's repetitiveness.

Visuals and Atmosphere
The 1960s aesthetic, with period-accurate music and New Bordeaux’s diverse districts, immerses players in the era. However, graphical glitches can break immersion.

Conclusion
While the gameplay can feel monotonous, the powerful story and rich world-building shine. The DLCs enhance the experience, making the full package worthwhile for crime drama fans.

Score: 7.5/10
Recommended for its narrative and atmosphere, though gameplay repetition and bugs may detract from enjoyment.

At first I was skeptical of this game considering it was very different than the first two in the series as far as gameplay goes, but it really grew on me. I enjoyed it immensely. I will say there was a few weird veer offs in the story that had nothing to do with the main plot that never really led to anything but it was still fin either way. Looking forward to the new one being released.

CRASHES EVERY SINGLE TIME. NOT ABLE TO COMPLETE MORE THAT 25 PERCENT

Meh, boring

satisfying gameplay, not Mafia II but still cool.

Simply put, the game is terrible. Driving sucks, map is repeat building after repeat building. Same story with missions, always repeating the same ideas. Map is littered with collection items that are useless.

The best part is the old playboys you collect. Save you time and money, just google them.
