The life of a gangster is nearly upon us, as Mafia: Definitive Edition launches in just 9 days. But the remake has been created from the ground up with all new visuals and graphical fidelity, so how demanding is it? The official PC system requirements for the Mafia remake have been revealed, and they're not too far off from those early preview build specs.

In fact, there have only been 3 changes to the system requirements from those preview build specs, this includes the Core i5-2500K getting slightly increased to the Core i5-2550K. Additionally, the minimum requirements have actually been decreased from a GTX 770 and R9 280X to a GTX 660 and Radeon HD 7870 instead.

Apart from that, the specs have stayed exactly the same, so that unfortunately means a GTX 1080 or RX 5700 is required for the recommended specs. But for now, let's jump in and check out the official Mafia Definitive Edition PC system requirements...

Overall, looking at the Mafia Definitive Edition system requirements you will need around a 4 year old PC in order to play at the recommended settings.
