Not one for friendly competition, the Italian mob wipe out Clay's new family, shoot him, and leave him for dead. Clay vows to get revenge and sets about causing as much trouble as possible for the Italians. ​

You won't be alone in this, as you'll be able to recruit other gang leaders to serve as your lieutenants - including the protagonist of Mafia II, Vito Scaletta.

The story sounds intriguing and the graphics looks superb. Feast your eyes on the trailer below.

You can easily pre-order Mafia III from a number of retailers, by going to the game's official site and choosing your region, retailer and edition.

All pre-orders will come with the Family Kick-Back, which includes three exclusive weapons and vehicles.

The limited deluxe edition comes with the game and season pass, whilst the limited collector's edition has all of that, as well as additional physical content, such as the game's score on vinyl, a collectible art book, art prints, and some other items that have yet to be announced.

Mafia III will be available for PC and consoles from 7 October.
