Mafia: Definitive Edition adds a current-gen 60 FPS version tomorrow

Tomorrow, 14 August, Mafia: Definitive Edition is getting a dedicated update for Xbox Series and PlayStation 5. The release specifically addresses a long-standing limitation from the game’s original 2020 launch, where current-gen players could only rely on backward compatibility—keeping the experience closer to the constraints of the earlier Xbox One-era version.

With the new current-gen build, returning to Lost Heaven and reliving Tommy Angelo’s story should feel noticeably smoother. The remake rebuilt the 2002 Mafia original from the ground up, continuing to stand out visually within the franchise, and the new update is designed to improve that experience on modern consoles.

Mafia: The Omertà Collection packages four eras of the crime saga

Alongside the performance update, 2K announced Mafia: The Omertà Collection, a new bundle that brings together the four primary Mafia games and their related extra content.

Mafia: The Old Country – Definitive Edition — Includes the game, the Man of Honor expansion, and content from the Deluxe Edition. The story begins in Sicily in 1904 with Enzo Favara, then continues into 1905 via the expansion.
Mafia: Definitive Edition — Features the rebuilt Tommy Angelo adventure in Lost Heaven, including the current-gen update with 60 FPS and technical improvements.
Mafia II: Definitive Edition — Tells the story of Vito Scaletta and Joe in Empire Bay, including all DLC.
Mafia III: Definitive Edition — Covers Lincoln Clay’s revenge in New Bordeaux, along with all additional content released for the game.

The collection is built to let players move through four distinct periods of organized crime, starting in early-1900s Sicily and then progressing through Lost Heaven, Empire Bay, and New Bordeaux. It also highlights Mafia: The Old Country because its Definitive Edition includes Man of Honor, set months after Enzo begins with the Torrisi family and featuring Ennio Salieri—adding another layer of connection across the franchise’s timelines.

For players who already own the games, 2K’s most immediate upgrade remains the same: Mafia: Definitive Edition will run at 60 FPS on Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 starting tomorrow.
