Mafia III seems to take a different approach, narratively, from what we expect from this kind of game. It’s a setting and character type you don’t often see in games, much less ones about the mob. Instead of the Italian-American stereotypes we’ve played as in the past, this go-through focuses on a biracial Vietnam vet in an ersatz 1960s New Orleans who aims to take down the Italian mob that broke up his family’s criminal empire. The name’s the same, but it doesn’t seem to have a direct connection to either of those other two games. This week’s Mafia III news dump-a new trailer, new previews, a release date (10/7/16)-has focused a lot of attention on the latest game in 2K’s gangland saga.
