Inspired by the classic film and book authored by Mario Puzo, the videogame adaption lets gamers get a piece of the action amongst the Corleone family who ultimately work to earn respect through loyalty and fear as they rise through the ranks to become Don in a living 1945-1955 New York.
Gamers will create their own mob character in the game, putting themselves into the action while reliving classic moments from the fiction and experiencing original missions alongside memorable characters from the film. After a life of small-time jobs and petty thefts the player will be accepted into the Corleone family, America's most famous criminal organization. It will be up to the player to carry out orders, earn respect and make New York City their own.
Featuring non-linear action-adventure gameplay, The Godfather will offer countless choices for solving the family's problems with brutal violence, skillful diplomacy, or a cunning mixture of both. From mob hits and bank heists to drive-bys and extortion, step deep inside the world of The Godfather where intimidation and negotiation are your tickets to the top.
The Godfather is also in development for the PS2, PSP, and the PC.
