Mafia: The Old Country Promises Authentic Sicilian Experience with Original Voice Acting

The recent announcement during Opening Night Live brought exciting news to fans of the franchise, confirming that a new entry in the Mafia series is on the horizon. Following the mixed reception of Mafia III, released in 2016, Hangar 13 aims to revive the series by creating a highly authentic portrayal of the mafia lifestyle, transporting players to Sicily and immersing them in the rich culture of the Cosa Nostra.

The developers are demonstrating a strong commitment to authenticity, as evidenced by their recent social media updates. They emphasize that the heart of the Mafia series lies in its realism, and Mafia: The Old Country will feature voice acting delivered in Sicilian, reflecting its historical backdrop of 1900s Sicily. Furthermore, Italian language support will extend to the game’s user interface and subtitles, ensuring a deep and engaging experience for players.

In essence, players eager to experience the dialogues of the Cosa Nostra in their native Sicilian dialect will have the opportunity to fully enjoy this element within Mafia: The Old Country.

This raises an interesting question for avid gamers: do you opt for original voice performances in your games, or do you prefer dubbed versions for a different experience?
