Set in early 1900s Sicily, the game follows Enzo Favara, a young man who escapes forced labor and enters the Torrisi crime family. You play through his efforts to survive and establish his place in the family’s criminal world.
Missions combine third-person gunfights, stealth approaches with distractions and takedowns, and close-quarters knife duels. You travel through villages, city streets, vineyards, ruins, and other Sicilian locations on foot, horseback, or in period automobiles, with races and pursuits along the way.
The campaign follows a linear story, with equipment and vehicle upgrades, collectible charms, and optional exploration. A separate Free Ride mode lets you roam the map and take on challenges, including horse and car races, stealth missions, and shootouts.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its early-1900s Sicilian setting, detailed scenery, and cinematic presentation. Many also value the crime story, characters, and voice performances, while some appreciate its focused, linear structure and period vehicles. These strengths are not universal: other reviewers find the plot predictable and the gameplay too limited or repetitive.
Uncover the origins of organized crime in Mafia: The Old Country, a gritty mob story set in the brutal underworld of 1900s Sicily. Fight to survive as Enzo Favara and prove your worth to the Family in this immersive third-person action-adventure set during a dangerous, unforgiving era.
Enzo will do anything for a better life. After a brutal childhood of forced labor, he's ready to risk everything to become a man of honor in the Torrisi crime family.
His oath to the Mafia, with all the power, temptation, and hardship it entails, is a burning reminder of this simple truth:
Family Takes Sacrifice.
This thrilling narrative is brought to life by stunning visuals, cinematic storytelling, and the authentic realism that the critically acclaimed Mafia series is known for. Enzo's story unfolds in a time when skill with a stiletto blade was a deadly asset, a lupara sawed-off shotgun was a go-to firearm, murderous vendettas raged for decades, and mafiosi patrolled their protection rackets on foot, horseback, or behind the wheel of turn-of-the-century motorcars.
The rough-hewn beauty of Sicily's rugged countryside is a stark contrast to the grime of urban alleyways—but the treachery and violence of this gangland run just as deep. Rival families and their ruthless leaders wage unending turf wars in the shadows, hidden from the public eye. Trust is a fleeting rarity, and loyalties are worth killing for.
You're the antihero of this thrilling 1900s story, living out every tense moment of Enzo's descent into Sicily’s clandestine criminal underworld. Come face-to-face with a cast of unpredictable allies and cutthroat enemies in this classic crime drama, rich in period-authentic details that will immerse you in this treacherous Mediterranean setting.
Engage in life-or-death combat, be it up close with a blade or from afar with a variety of firearms. Ambush enemies for vicious stealth takedowns, or slice them up in close-quarters duels. If you prefer firearms, wield period-authentic handguns, rifles, and shotguns to overcome any odds and doggedly eliminate the Don's enemies.
Traverse a wide range of Sicilian environments, from underground crypts and crumbling ruins to bountiful vineyards and ornate opera houses. To reach your next target or make a hurried getaway, you'll need to gallop on horseback across cobbled streets and open fields, or speed down dirt roads in authentic turn-of-the-century automobiles.
