Get this date pencilled down in your diary, Outlook Calendar, or scrap of paper – August 10, 2010! That’s the date that the demo for Mafia II will be available for download giving you a chance to explore the streets of Empire Bay prior to the game’s release at the end of August.
The demo will feature a level called "Buzzsaw," with a mission to take down a tough mobster known as "The Fat Man."
The official blurb reads:
"While the epic game spans two decades, the Buzzsaw demo takes place during the summer of the ‘50s – a time considered the “Birth of Cool”, and with it, rock ‘n’ roll, hot rods, and rebellious attitudes. The demo showcases the type of vibrant edge-of-your-seat action, as well as a slice of the expansive city of Empire Bay in the colorful era."
If you haven’t done so already, you can pre-order Mafia II’s Digital Deluxe Edition and get a host of exclusive content, including a digital map of Empire Bay and a photo album-style art book.
See you on the streets, suckers!
