Check out Mafia III’s Collector’s Edition
In 2016 one of the golden rules is that you can't release a big-budget game without an expensive Collector's Edition full of small items that you'll forget about within weeks. Mafia III is the latest to be given the Collector's Edition treatment, but some of it looks quite nice, taking inspiration from the likes of Bioshock 2 Special Edition which is definitely one of the higher quality ones out there. Without further ado, here's what's included in Mafia III's Collector's Edition: Mafia III: Official Soundtrack of New Bordeaux – 180 gram vinyl pressing featuring some of the 60’s greatest hit makers, including Otis Redding & Carla Thomas, Sam Cooke, The Animals, and more. The vinyl is a sampling of the larger in-game soundtrack, that includes an eclectic mix of Rock, Rhythm and Blues, and Pop, all colliding against a backdrop of war, civil unrest, and sweeping social changes that defined the 1960s.

Composed by Jesse Harlin and Jim Bonney, two of the industry’s great composers, the Mafia III original game score is a Rhythm and Blues inspired tour through a city ruled by organised crime and corrupt officials, and the setting for Lincoln Clay’s emotional story of loss and revenge.

- Faux Leather Establishment Drink Coasters – Representing the Paradiso Casino and Sammy’s in-game criminal establishments, these aren’t just souvenirs, but symbols of Lincoln Clay’s motivations for revenge.
- Season Pass – Future post-release downloadable content bundled at a discount.
In this day and age vinyls are always cool to have so if you’re interested, make sure you pre-order the edition before October 7th when Mafia III arrives on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
