The game is set for release next month, with fans of the video game poised to be granted access to plenty of content in the following days, including new character outfits and a gold weapons pack 30 days after launch.

Added to this, 2K has confirmed three story expansions are to be also made available and can be bought individually or as part of the season pass, Deluxe, and Collector's edition.

In the 'Faster, baby!' story, gamers will see Lincoln partner up with Roxy Laveau, an old flame, to tackle a corrupt sheriff.

'Sign of the Times', meanwhile, features Father James encouraging Lincoln to investigate ritualistic killings.

And finally, in 'Stones Unturned', Lincoln unites with CIA agent John Donovan to settle a feud that can be traced back to the Vietnam jungle.

'Mafia III' is set in 1968 in the city of New Bordeaux, a fictional recreation of New Orleans.

The narrative of the soon-to-be-released video game centres around Lincoln Clay, an orphan and a Vietnam War veteran, who is trying build a new crime organisation to take on the Italian mob.

'Mafia III' is set for release on October 7.
