About This Game

The Godfather II game goes beyond the film's story by setting players in the world of organized crime in 1960’s Florida, Cuba and New York.

After being promoted by Michael Corleone to Don of New York, players expand to new cities, as they build up their families through extorting businesses, monopolizing illegal crime rings and defeating new families in an effort to become the most powerful mob family in America. To help players manage their empire, The Godfather II introduces "The Don's View" -- an innovative strategy meta-game that allows players to oversee the entire world as they grow the family business. Using the Don's View, players will be able to build, defend and expand their crime rings, while keeping an eye on the movements and plans of the rival families. Players will also learn to master the business of organized crime by building a family of Made Men, hiring crew, handing out orders, and promoting their best men up the ranks.

Features

• Set in a stunning open-world environment, The Godfather II expands on the popular gameplay mechanics of the first game and doubles down on the series’ signature BlackHand control scheme, which now features even more visceral hand-to-hand brutality at your fingertips, introducing a new combo system, pressure tactics and executions.
• In The Godfather II, players will fight alongside their hand-picked crew, who have their own skills and expertise. Each family member specializes in a specific field such as demolitions, arson, engineering, first-aid and more.
• "The Don's View" allows players to oversee the entire world as they grow the family business.

Game Story

The story takes place during the same time frame as the movie version of Godfather 2. You play Dominic, a NY under boss in the Corleone NY family. After the meeting set up in Cuba by Hyman Roth (portrayed in the movie) you are tasked with rescuing Michael and Fredo from Cuba back to the states, after which you are made the Don of your own family.

The story progresses alongside the Godfather 2 plot and occasionally the two meet. You will recruit your own family, assign an underboss, some Capo's, and go to war with rival families. If you haven't watched Godfather 2, or it's been a while since you have, that would be a good place to start to get a feel for how the story will proceed.
