Mafia II: Definitive Edition is a singleplayer third-person action, shooter game in the Mafia series. The game is a remaster of Mafia II which contains graphical upgrades like improved textures, improved shadows, higher resolution ambient occlusion, added HBAO-support, generally improved anti-aliasing (like added MSAA-support), improved facial feature definition, remastered facial animations, reworked post-processing and implemented DX11-support.[2][3] It was remastered by D3T and published by 2K Games.
Mafia II: Definitive Edition was released May 19, 2020 on Steam and later on Epic Games Store on September 25, containing all the DLC from Mafia II. Previous owners of Mafia II on Steam were automatically given this version for free, and the original Mafia II was renamed to Mafia II (Classic) in the Steam Library.
Compared to the original, the game lacks support for Windows 7[4] and Windows XP, although a workaround exists for Windows 7.

Two different languages for Audio and Subtitles
- Game doesn't offer the option to have audio and subtitles in two different languages. Useful if one doesn't like the dubbing in their language.
Copy text files from the desired text language to the chosen audio language |

Issues unresolved
Infinite loading screen in Stairway to Heaven
- An infinite loading screen in the chapter Stairway to Heaven might happen after the cutscene where Vito pays back Bruno if he raised money by holding up stores.
Restart chapter[15] |

Notes
|
FOV changes after loading
- Gameplay FOV may change after loading from a checkpoint or restarting the game and loading into a mission.[16]
Bugged cutscenes
- Characters close their eyes in cutscenes when their eyes are normally suppose to move with some not even moving or blinking at all. Movements are choppier, more robotic and awkward and limbs can clip into the torso of the characters and twist around unnaturally. Cutscenes can even be black with only audio or repeat indefinitely.[citation needed]
Issues fixed
Cloth APEX PhysX fix workaround
- APEX PhysX effects work properly except the cloth physics in the main game. APEX PhysX works well in the DLCs and with DLC clothing.
Delete CLOTH folder[17] |

Notes
|
APEX PhysX debris doesn't last as long as in Mafia II: Classic
Copy Effects folder from Classic[18] |

Savegame issues
- The path for saves cannot contain non-English characters.
Use SilentPatch to resolve the issue[20] |

Resolution list locked to single monitor (Unable to select certain resolutions)
- In multiple monitor setups, it's possible that game won't let user to select certain resolutions, because one of devices has lower resolution in comparison to others.
- For example, with two monitors: 1st - 5:4(1280x1024) and 2nd one 16:9(1920x1080) <- set as main one, user will not be able to render game above 1280x1024. If resolution is set in config file, and it exceeds 1280x1024 game will render game in 640x480.
Disconnect lowest resolution display |
---|
Add Windows 7 Support (Error: xinput1_4.dll missing)
- The game was compiled to use most modern xinput1_4.dll, which is not available for Windows 7. However, it's still possible to use earlier version of XInput library as a workaround.
Windows 7 workaround[21] |

- Confirmed by using Special K to monitor the swapchain details of the game when launching it on a HDR enabled monitor. The swapchain of the game remains purely in SDR, and so HDR is never engaged by the game.

- Started Joe's Adventures and took a screenshot of the first scene past the cutscene, clicked on Load last checkpoint from the menu, which resulted in a significant FOV decrease, persisting even after using the wardrobe, until leaving the building. Restarting the game and clicking Continue resulted in increased FOV at the same starting point. Additionally confirmed by mastan on Discord.
