The best he could do was let us know that the company is working on a new Mafia game, reflecting on how well the Mafia Trilogy was received. Also, he happened to mention that it was all for the fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mafia: Trilogy - Launch Trailer | PS4\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BtO5UTZ0EH8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A few months ago, Hangar 13 needed to let some staff go when Mosaic and Volt projects both received red lights, promptly cancelling them. With more<strong> jobs on the line<\/strong>, the company quickly made a plan for a project code-named Nero. It\u2019s not clear if project Nero will become the new Mafia prequel, but it\u2019s also working on a new title called Hammer featuring tennis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With new technology available these days, maybe this will give Hangar 13 and Take-Two time to develop something epic for the game. It\u2019s only at the start of the design cycle, but finding the <strong>funds for new investments <\/strong>may be an issue for the company. If it wasn\u2019t obvious before, these gaming businesses will need to pull something magnificent from the gaming development hat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"new Mafia game in development\" class=\"wp-image-202263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/new-Mafia-game-in-development-main.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Rockstar has recently started <a href=\"https:\/\/gta-6.en.softonic.com\/articles\/rockstar-hunts-gta-6-employees\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hunting for new employees for GTA 6<\/a>, which might spur Hangar 13 to get started with the Mafia prequel.
