Developer Hangar 13 has confirmed details on a slew of new story-based Mafia 3 DLC, which will begin rolling out from March 2017.

In total, Mafia 3 will receive three expansions to flesh out the 1960s gangster storyline, titled ‘Faster, Baby’ ‘Stones Unturned’ and ‘Signs of the Times.’ Season Pass holders will be able to download the DLC as part of the package, although for everyone else you’ll have to fork out an as-yet unconfirmed sum of money for the new content via the PlayStation Store.

See below for full details.

“Faster, Baby!”

End of March 2017

Fast cars, dramatic chases, and epic stunt driving take center stage as Lincoln joins forces with Roxy Laveau, a sister-in-arms out to take down a corrupt Sheriff terrorizing Civil Rights activists on the outskirts of New Bordeaux.

“Stones Unturned”

May 2017

When a merciless rival resurfaces in New Bordeaux, Lincoln must join forces with CIA agent John Donovan to settle a blood feud that began in the war-torn jungles of Vietnam.

“Sign of the Times”

July 2017

A string of ritualistic killings has New Bordeaux on the edge of terror. At Father James’ request, Lincoln agrees to hunt down the cult responsible, a quest that will take him from the dark heart of the old bayou to the drug-ridden counterculture of the inner city.

All three of these story expansions will deliver tight, focused, and compelling narratives, while also introducing new gameplay mechanics, activities, environments and rewards. 

Speaking on the first batch of DLC, ‘Faster, Baby,’ Hangar 13’s Narrative Director, Bill Harms, commented: “We were really humbled by the response to the characters and the story in Mafia III, so we wanted to double-down on that as much as possible, while also providing players with different gameplay experiences. Mafia III focuses on the systematic destruction of Sal Marcano’s empire, racket-by-racket, while all of the expansions tell direct, linear stories."

Mafia 3 was released in October 2016 for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One. The title was recently patched to include support for the PlayStation 4 Pro, offering 4K resolution gaming for compatible TVs. More information on Mafia 3’s new DLC will be released in the coming weeks, so stay tuned to PSU for all the latest details as we get them.
