Tiscali Games has
uncovered word that a Mafia 2 announcement is in the offing, having discovered a
ratings listing for a trailer that will show off the game at the Games
Convention in Leipzig, Germany. A subsequent post on
IGN says to
expect an announcement next week, while a post on
Computer and Video Games suggests that the sequel to Illusion Softworks'
life-of-crime game may be officially announced as early as today. Illusion
actually revealed they were at work on a Mafia sequel back in late 2003
(
story), but nothing has been mentioned of this project since
then.
