A brand new job itemizing for developer Hangar 13 hints that Mafia 5 might be in early manufacturing. The outline of the job publish on LinkedIn hints to a previous report from Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier that the developer hopes to greenlight a sequel to Mafia 4 whereas it’s being made.
Early Mafia 5 manufacturing can be to keep away from errors Hangar 13 made previously
Hangar 13 is at present trying to fill the place of an Government Producer at its Brighton, England studio. The producer can be accountable for “a key franchise” and “play a significant half within the profitable supply of a significant new title, together with post-launch content material and future franchise planning.”
The sport continues to be unannounced, so it’s attainable that it doesn’t have something to do with the Mafia franchise. That stated, Schreier reported in Might 2022 that Nick Baynes, the president of Hangar 13, was “aiming to green-light a sequel to Nero whereas it’s growth,” with (Challenge) Nero being the codename for the subsequent Mafia sport. That is in order that its group can stay intact as soon as Mafia 4 is completed, as a substitute of being awkwardly displaced when the sport is finished — a mistake that Hangar 13 had made previously.
From what we all know thus far about Mafia 4 (or regardless of the subsequent Mafia sport can be known as), it’s reportedly a prequel set in Sicily within the late nineteenth to early twentieth century and can observe the Don Salieri Household. As reported final 12 months, the discharge date continues to be “a couple of years away,” which means we might see it arrive in 2024 or 2025.
