IGG's Mafia Mobile Begins Pre-Registration

• Mafia Mobile is the latest title from IGG, creators of the popular Fate War.
• Build your criminal empire by dominating the city and expanding your influence worldwide.
• Assemble a team of lethal capos and grow your underground franchise.

La Cosa Nostra, the Mob, Triads, or simply organized crime—the image of sharply dressed kingpins and their loyal enforcers has long fascinated popular culture. This allure extends to mobile gaming, as anyone who recalls Mafia City's memorable YouTube ad campaigns can attest.

IGG, the developer behind Fate War, is now entering the scene with Mafia Mobile. Comparisons to Mafia City are inevitable, given the strategic gameplay that involves training capos and launching raids against rival gangs.

Currently available for pre-registration and scheduled for a September launch, Mafia Mobile features a diverse roster of henchmen to recruit—including Assailants, Bikers, and Gunmen—each contributing unique skills to help you expand your criminal operations from a single city to global dominance.

Sleeping with the Fishes

While IGG's recent title, Fate War, introduced some fresh twists to the genre, Mafia Mobile appears to tread remarkably familiar ground. Combined with some dated tropes—such as "dating hot babes"—the overall vibe feels somewhat out of step with current trends.

With high-profile reveals like Arknights: Endfield at Gamescom's Opening Night Live and numerous promising titles on the way, it's possible that Mafia Mobile's moment may have already passed, regardless of its quality.

That said, if you're eager to build your own criminal syndicate and rule the underworld, there are plenty of mobile games to satisfy that urge. For more immediate options, explore our picks for the top strategy games available on iOS.
