There’s no official confirmation yet, but Mafia: The Old Country might now have a possible release date. According to its page on Steam, the game is listed for release on August 8, 2025.
Until now, the release window was simply “2025,” but this is the first time a specific date has appeared. Still, it’s possible that this is just a mistake or a placeholder until an official announcement is made.
Is the August 8 Date Real?
The August 8 release date appeared in an official blog post for the game on Valve’s platform. This makes it seem believable, although an August release is a bit unusual for a major title. The blog post originally said, “Mafia: The Old Country will be available from August 8, 2025,” but this part was later edited. It also encouraged players to pre-order the game for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, and to stay tuned to the official Mafia website for more updates.
Another key detail from the post was the announcement of a special livestream by the developers. This event is planned for May 8, 2025, during the PAX convention. It’s likely that this is when the official release date will be confirmed. The presentation is expected to cover the past, present, and future of the Mafia game series.
What to Expect from the Game
In Mafia: The Old Country, players will explore the origins of organized crime in Sicily. The story takes place in the early 1900s and promises a brutal, gripping, and exciting experience. The first trailer and release window were shown during The Game Awards 2024.
