Former Mafia Developers License The Crytek Engine For New Open-world RPG
A group of developers whose credits include the two Mafia games recently left 2k Czech to form Warhorse Studios. The company has begun work on its first game, an open-world RPG using the Crytek engine.
Along with Mafia, the developers' credits also include Operation Flashpoint. Warhorse Studios also employs Martin Klima, author of the pen-and-paper RPG, Dragon's Lair.
For those who were hoping for future Mafia installments, you may be in luck. Rumors are pointing to a third Mafia game being developed, although without the team from the first two games.
