Mafia 2 Sees Biggest U.K. Launch Since Red Dead Redemption

Posted August 31, 2010 by Ben Strauss

Take-Two is seeing déjà vu in the U.K. as its new crime drama, Mafia 2, went straight to the top of the charts last week. It is “the biggest U.K. game launch since Take-Two’s very own Red Dead Redemption 14 weeks ago,” says Chart-Track.

These numbers, of course, do not reflect sales from the U.S. Given the lengthy development time, it is unclear if the game will be labeled as a success.
