2K Games Announces August 24, 2010 North American Street Date for Mafia® II
Epic mobster video game combines rich storytelling with the style and vices of the ’40s and ’50s for high-stakes third-person shooter
New York, NY – March 25, 2010 – 2K Games announced today that Mafia® II will be available in North America on August 24, 2010 and internationally on August 27, 2010 for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and Windows PC. Mafia II is currently in development by 2K Czech, the same creative team behind the award-winning, genre-defining Mafia®, which captivated millions of gamers around the world.
Through a compelling narrative, Mafia II transports gamers into the dark and unforgiving world of the Mafia. The fiction is embellished by a sophisticated, era-evoking atmosphere that meticulously replicates the clothing, cars, music and advertising of 1940’s and 1950’s Americana. Players will easily become immersed in the game’s cinematic Hollywood-style experience with strong, believable characters in a living, breathing metropolis. By fusing high-octane gunplay with white-knuckle driving and an engaging narrative, Mafia II looks to be the industry’s most compelling Mafia title to date. According to IGN.com, “Mafia II is definitely at the top of our most wanted lists.”
Born the son of a poor immigrant, Vito is a beaten down Italian-American who is trying to escape the life of poverty that consumed his childhood. Vito, along with his lifelong friend, Joe, will descend into the world of organized crime. Looking to escape the life of hardship that his father led, Vito dreams about becoming a “made man,” and together with Joe, will work to prove themselves to the Mafia as they try to make their names on the streets. However, the two quickly realize that life as a wise guy isn’t quite as glamorous as it seems.
Additionally, Mafia II will be playable by the public for the first time at the Penny Arcade Expo East (PAX East) being held at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston, Massachusetts from March 26 – March 28 at the 2K Games booth (booth #103).
Mafia II is rated M for Mature by the ESRB. For more information on Mafia II, please visit www.mafia2game.com.
2K Games is a division of 2K, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO).
2K Games is partnering with NVIDIA to bring NVIDIA PhysX technology to all versions of Mafia II! The PC version of the game will also feature integration of enhanced GPU PhysX and 3D Vision tech. Mafia II will be the first Windows PC game ever to utilize the NVIDIA APEX Clothing module.
What does this all mean for you? The NVIDIA APEX Clothing module allows for more dynamic movement in cloth and apparel, making in-game characters even more realistic and reactive to environmental conditions. Players will experience lifelike explosions, weapon fragments, in-game debris and amazing destructible environments. For example, a pistol fired into a glass pane will emit hundreds of glass shards; a shotgun blasted through a wooden landing will splinter the wood; and a Tommy Gun will chip into a brick or stone wall to methodically fracture and break it into pieces.
But don't just take my word for it - check out the screenshots below, featuring the full power of the NVIDIA tech.
THE MAFIA II COLLECTOR'S EDITION includes a brushed metallic SteelBook Casing with a debossed logo and exclusive art of Vito and Joe. Inside you’ll find a 100-page photo album-style hardcover artbook, a CD of the Mafia II Orchestral Score performed by the Prague FILMHarmonic Orchestra, a map of Empire Bay printed on high quality, tear-resistant paper, and the Made Man Pack downloadable content which includes two new suits for Vito.
Made Man Pack: Get a taste of being a Made Man in this new DLC pack. Feel the difference of a luxury automobile as you drive 2 cars featuring bold design and dynamic performance. Vito will look the part in 2 new suits including a red carpet worthy tux.
