Italy Beta Now!

Share
Mafia Wars introduces Italy, a brand new destination that is full of challenges.  A game containing the word mafia would not be complete without a homage to the country where it all began. Italy is in the Beta test phase and will be available to all accounts that have reached Level 5 or higher on October 23rd. There are no other requirements to gain access to Italy. The overall layout and functionality is very similar to Las Vegas but there are a few key differences.

1.  Regions
Italy is divided into Regions and they function like the Districts of Las Vegas.  Only the first 5 Regions will be available and Regions 6-8 will be released at a later date.  Regions will contain Energy, Fighting, and Social paths.
Region Name
Region 1 Roma
Region 2 Palermo
Region 3 Venezia
Region 4 Milano
Region 5 Napoli
Regions 6-8 will be released at a later time.

2.  Currency
The currency used in Italy is called Lira.  There will be no Vault like in Las Vegas and the banking system will be like all the other destinations to include the money laundering fee.  The Italian Satchel of Lira will be available and will function in the same manner as the Envelope of Thai Baht and the Vegas Rack of Chips.  
3.  Jobs
Regions have 2-3 Paths (Energy, Fighting, and Social paths).  All jobs in each Path will have 4 tiers of mastery (Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Ruby).  Mastering all Paths of a Region is no longer required to complete a tier.  When you defeat the Region Boss, you automatically advance to the next level of mastery.  You will be able to request help for Social Jobs every 8 hours.  All jobs require a variety of equipment which can be purchased with Lira from the inventory pages.

Stay tuned as we'll have more information coming tomorrow!
