Hangar 13 Shares New Details on Mafia: The Old Country in Dev Diaries

The team at Hanger 13 reveal more about Mafia: The Old Country in developer diaries

The team at Hanger 13 has shared their second developer diary today, which dives into the visual quality of the game.

In Breaking Omertà: “Art Meets Technology”, the team talk about not only the visual quality of the environments when creating Sicily, but also the quality of the human characters as well, and also gives big shoutouts to the hair quality in this game. “This will be the best-looking Mafia game in the franchise,” is the quote that ends this diary entry.

In case you missed it, the team also talked about Sicily more in the first developer diary, Breaking Omertà: “Where It All Began.” In this one, they discuss using real photographs as a source of inspiration for the period and locale of this entry.

Hanger 13 also addressed the country’s history and how they’re attempting to capture it in the game, from delving into the history of the place to embarking on journeys in Sicily itself to discover and inspire themselves.

Mafia: The Old Country launches August 8, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC
