When it comes to the US, the PC version is always unlocked first. Those residing on the west coast will get to play Mafia: The Old Country starting as early as 9 AM PT on August 7, with the central and eastern time zones following suit at 11 AM CT and 12 PM ET respectively. Console players will have till wait a bit longer; the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions will become available on August 7 at 9 PM PT, 11 PM CT and 12 AM ET (on August 8).
Of course, Mafia: The Old Country’s release window differs a bit when it comes to the rest of the world.
