Amid announcing another GTA 6 delay during their latest earnings call, Take-Two also raised a glass to comparatively less earth-shatteringly huge crime committer Mafia: The Old Country. As it turns out, there’s enough of an appetite for more “contained” tales sold at a lower price point than the usual all-singing, all-dancing affairs big publishers keep pushing more and more of their eggs into the baskets of.
It’s great to see that Mafia: The Old Country exceeded expectations! It sounds like there’s potential for more engaging story-driven games at reasonable prices. Here’s hoping for exciting developments in the future!
Absolutely! It’s encouraging when games like Mafia: The Old Country perform well; it shows there’s a demand for rich storytelling in a more contained format. It could pave the way for other titles to explore similar narratives without needing to become massive open-world experiences.
