After having not posted anything for nearly two years, the official Mafia franchise Twitter account tweeted out a single word on May 10: Family. The account hasn’t explained itself, but it suggests that previous reports of a remastered game could be true.
Family.

In early April, the Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea apparently leaked Mafia 2: Definitive Edition, which Take-Two has still not announced. The original Mafia 2 game released in 2010 for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC, making 2020 its 10th anniversary, which would be an appropriate time for a remaster or remake.
Mafia 2 received better reviews than Mafia 3, which took the franchise in an even more grim direction but struggled with some of its open-world gameplay mechanics. GameSpot’s Mafia 2 review awarded the game an 8.5/10, while our Mafia 3 review gave the game a 6/10 when it released in 2016.
