According to leaker NateDrake, also known as Nate The Hate, Mafia: Definitive Edition will finally be available on Xbox Game Pass four years after its release. The insider posted on the ResetEra forums in late July, stating that the remake of the franchise’s first game is expected to join Microsoft’s subscription service in August 2024.
Leaks about Xbox Game Pass releases have been especially frequent lately. For instance, just a few days ago, Spanish YouTuber eXtas1s announced that Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy would be joining Xbox Game Pass on August 8. Earlier, the same source accurately reported the July 24 release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. eXtas1s also correctly predicted the recent additions of Tchia, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2, and the Octopath Traveler series to the Game Pass library.
If the leak is accurate, Mafia: Definitive Edition joining Xbox Game Pass would significantly enhance its lineup of high-quality open-world games. This 2020 remake has received high praise from fans and critics, reflected in its over 58,000 “Very Positive” reviews on Steam and an average score of 78 on OpenCritic. Additionally, the game has an 81% reviewer recommendation rate on OpenCritic, earning acclaim for its captivating atmosphere, high production values, and improved driving physics, among other features.
