Mafia 3’s Protagonist Has Some Damn Good Reasons For Revenge
Mafia 3 is inching closer and closer, and 2K released a new story-focused trailer today that reveals the motivations that we’ll experience as we play as Lincoln Clay. The trailer notes all sorts of reasons for Lincoln Clay being as pissed off as he seems to be, but it’s not without reason. Couple betrayals from all sorts of shady characters, along with a tense period in history, and our protagonist in Mafia 3 definitely has his reasons for wanting to get even.
Mafia 3 takes place in 1968 in New Orleans, where we take on the role of Lincoln Clay. Clay is an orphan and former veteran of the Vietnam War, and as he comes back to society, he’s aiming to make a name for himself. Players will duke it out with all sorts of shady factions, including the Italian Mafia, and Clay is bound to cross paths, especially with some characters from previous titles. Betrayed by the Italian Mob upon his return, Clay eventually looks to join forces and build his own crime organization, and he will make use of stealth tactics, along with plenty of firepower, to leave his mark on New Bordeaux.
Mafia 3 is slated to release on October 7th, and be sure to keep your eyes on COGconnected for all the latest information on this title, especially with it nearing its release so soon.
