Mafia: Definitive Edition uses a physically based material rendering pipeline, a step forward from Hanger 13’s work in Mafia 3. Dynamic lighting is used to great effect here, with neon signs, car headlights and street lamps all adding considerably to the game’s atmosphere.
The Mafia 3 engine utilizes a deferred renderer, allowing for a large number of dynamic light sources at a given time. We’re looking at a shot-for-shot remake of the original game, meaning that original 2002 assets are nowhere to be found. Mafia: Definitive Edition is built on Hanger 13’s Mafia 3 engine, as mentioned before. Let’s take a deep dive into the game’s core tech and find out. Mafia: Definitive Edition may have its roots in the early sixth generation, but technologically speaking, we’re looking at a game that very much holds its own against its eighth-gen peers. Mafia: Definitive Edition looks to be one of the most transformative remasters we’ve seen this generation. Instead, Hanger has gone for a complete, ground-up remake of the game, based on the Mafia 3 engine, with an updated feature set.
Initial trailers and gameplay videos showed us that we weren’t at a simple remaster or brush up of the 2002 original.
