Mafia: The Old Country, the latest entry in Hangar 13's action-adventure game series, has won some solid reviews, but it's also revived an old debate. Some players think a key feature is missing: they can't take Enzo Favara swimming.

Old Country dials down the experience compared to the bloated open world of Mafia III and goes for something much more linear, but exploration remains a treat as a result. It does, however, clash with video game must-haves such as the player’s “Instincts” that let them highlight stuff in the environment.
