Following the announcement of Mafia 3’s release date<\/a>,<\/strong> some international publications have had the chance to go hands-on with the upcoming crime drama, and the critics are loving what they’ve seen so far.<\/p>\n

After some time with the game, Trusted Reviews<\/a><\/strong> described Mafia 3 as “raw and sensitive”, adding that “it rips the pinstriped suits, wing tipped shoes, and slicked back hair from the romanticised image of organised crime, and takes it somewhere new with the new protagonist, Clay.”<\/p>\n

Trusted Reviews<\/strong> said that “calling Mafia 3\u2019s combat gruesome would be an understatement. It\u2019s some of the goriest hand-to-hand combat we\u2019ve seen, but it\u2019s done with a slick elegance that you can\u2019t help but be impressed by.”<\/p>\n

“And choosing to set the game in such a period of change, where racism hangs in the air like smog, will make for an intense atmosphere, while the music of the time sets off the uniqueness of New Orleans.”<\/p>\n
