ComicBook.com's Tanner Dedmon recently had the chance to get some hands-on time with the game, and you can read an excerpt from his overall impressions below.

"The setting of Mafia: Definitive Edition and the characters it houses are two of the game's most attractive components, but it's evident from the brief preview of a couple of chapters it's got more going for it than just that," Dedmon writes. "How much the game will deviate from the original remains to be seen, but the care invested into remaking the game is evident. Whether this is your first time playing a Mafia game or you just want to revisit the series in a new way, Mafia: Definitive Edition feels like it'll satisfy both types of players.
