Xbox Game Pass is expanding its library in August 2024 with the addition of Mafia: Definitive Edition, as per a recent leak. This marks the first Mafia title to join the Microsoft subscription service, despite 2K’s longstanding support for Xbox Game Pass. The Mafia series saw its latest release in 2020 with a remake and remastered versions of the previous entries.

The leak came from NateDrake, also known as Nate The Hate, who shared the news on the ResetEra forums. Xbox Game Pass has been the subject of numerous leaks lately, including reports of Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 joining the lineup. The addition of Mafia: Definitive Edition would bring a critically acclaimed open-world title to Xbox Game Pass, known for its immersive atmosphere, high production values, and improved driving mechanics.

In addition to Mafia: Definitive Edition, Xbox Game Pass has confirmed three titles for August 2024. Creatures of Ava, a creature-saving game by Inverge Studios, is set to launch on August 7. Core Keeper, a survival sandbox adventure from Pugstorm, will follow 20 days later. StudioBando’s quirky adventure SOPA: Tale of the Stolen Potato is also confirmed for an August debut, though a specific release date is pending. Before these new additions, Xbox Game Pass will say goodbye to Train Sim World 4, A Short Hike, and Venba on July 31.
