Nick Baker, aka Nick Shpeshal, has shared details on Mafia 4, the new installment in the series in development at 2K Hangar 13, which appears to be a prequel to the first installment in the series set in Sicily.
The clue came from the latest XboxEra podcast, where Baker said that Mafia 4 would be a prequel to the first installment of the series, confirming a recent Kotaku report, and would take place in Sicily, between the late 19th and early 20th century.
Baker also shared plot details, saying that in Mafia 4 we will be on the payroll of Don Salieri, the boss of the family that Tommy Angelo, the protagonist of the first part, also worked for. The co-founder of XboxEra also added that the style of the game will not differ much from the styles of previous entries in the series.
According to a recent Kotaku article, Mafia 4 is currently in the early stages of development, so we may have to wait a long time for an official announcement.
