Have A Deeper Look At Mafia 3's Thomas Burke & Soundtrack

Mafia 3

Another breakdown of Mafia 3's Thomas Burke has released as well as an epic looking soundtrack for Mafia 3 that will have over 100 songs on it

It is time to continue the releasing of information on each of the Mafia 3 lieutenants and again we have more on Thomas Burke. We already know a little bit based on the promotional materials that 2K Games has put out there already but it is always nice to get a good description and explanation of things from the writers over there at Hangar 13. That is just what we have to get us ready for the full release of Mafia 3 on October 7th for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Well at least what we have until we get to dig deeper in as we know all the characters are going to be fleshed out a bit more than a minute-long video.

Before now we knew Burke as being the loud mouthed leader of the Irish Mafia who was on the 'outs' with the Italians. It looks like there is a lot more to all of this as his revenge in Mafia 3 isn't fueled by just losing his turf but also losing his son and the ability to walk and run properly. They are the ones who gave him the limp by using a 'hitter' called the Butcher and Burke is out for blood there. If he can pick up some turf and cash along the way; even better. He does still seem to be the odd man out when it comes to the rest but here we have a better explanation on why all of that is.

Mafia 3 — Inside Look At Thomas Burke

On top of having a look at Burke's history we also have a good look at the soundtrack we're going to be hearing while playing Mafia 3. The franchise has been known for grabbing a lot of the best music of the eras and it is no different here as Hangar 13 made promises before and have delivered. Below is the full list of songs we'll hear while driving around or going on missions in the game and I see a whole lot of great tracks in the mix as well as artists. Over a hundred songs to be exact and I can't look forward enough to hear them all and hopefully recycle them on the stations a few times. Hopefully it will be available outside of the main game too.
