Black and white filter modes are increasingly popular, it seems, with Mafia: Definitive Edition following in the footsteps of Ghost of Tsushima’s Kurosawa Mode. Where Ghost of Tsushima was trying to replicate the mood and tone of classic black and white samurai films, Mafia: Definitive Edition’s Noir Mode is throwing back to all of cinema’s classic mob films. Whether it’s the original Scarface or anything with James Cagney, Mafia: Definitive Edition will be a fitting throwback in black and white.

Beyond Noir Mode, Hangar 13 has also added additional Free Ride content in the new update. Free Ride mode lets players explore the city of Lost Heaven free from the trappings of Mafia’s mission objectives. The exact details of the new content are left for players to discover, but Hangar 13 hints that players will likely find them while driving.
Outside of Noir Mode and the new Free Ride content, there have also been some quality of life changes made to Mafia: Definitive Edition. Players now have several new HUD customization options, like being able to turn on or off objective markers, enemy markers, and GPS. Several bug fixes have also been made, including a big one that wasn’t properly unlocking vehicles for players’ garages. All this and more is in Mafia: Definitive Edition’s newest patch, available now.
Mafia: Definitive Edition is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
