New Mafia with multiplayer and microtransactions: what is the Hangar 13 studio preparing?

Studio Hangar 13 is preparing a new part of the cult game Mafia, and there are already interesting details about what awaits players in the new version. Jobs at the studio’s UK branch indicate that the new Mafia will feature multiplayer and an in-game store with real money purchases.

The future Mafia is being built on the Unreal Engine 5 and promises “addictive stealth and combat gameplay.” In addition, the new game will have economic systems and a currency, which clearly hints at the emergence of microtransactions or donations.

It is expected that the next “Mafia” will be a prequel to the main trilogy and will tell about the formation of Don Salieri in Sicily at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, while it will be more linear than the previous part.

In addition, Hangar 13 is planning to release another main game in the series after the release of Mafia 4. The future of the iconic series is incredibly exciting and already has many players looking forward to it.
