Microsoft Mafia II - Xbox360

Mafia II is a 2010 action-adventure game developed by 2K Czech and published by 2K Games. It was released in August for PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360;[1][2] Mafia II: Director's Cut was released by Feral Interactive in December 2011.[3] The game is a sequel to 2002's Mafia[4] and the second installment in the Mafia series. Set within the fictional Empire Bay (based on New York City, as well as aspects of Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston and Detroit) during the 1940s and 1950s, the story follows Sicillian-American mobster and war veteran Vito Scaletta, who becomes involved in a power struggle among the city's Mafia crime families while attempting to pay back his father's debts and secure a better lifestyle.

The game is played from a third-person perspective and its world is navigated on-foot or by vehicle. The player character's criminal activities may incite a response from law enforcement agencies, measured by a "wanted" system that governs the aggression of their response. Development began in 2003, soon after the release of the first Mafia game. At release, Mafia II received generally positive reviews from critics, with praise particularly directed at the story, though the restrictive world design was criticized. Its successor, Mafia III, was released in 2016. A remastered version of the game, entitled Mafia II: Definitive Edition, was developed by d3t Limited and Hangar 13, and released by 2K Games on 19 May 2020. The Definitive Edition was also included in the Mafia: Trilogy pack, released on 25 September 2020.
