The Godfather

The Godfather

Welcome to the Corleone family.
After a life of small-time jobs and petty thefts you’ve been
accepted into America’s most famous criminal organisation. Now it’s up
to you to carry out orders, earn respect, rise through the ranks, and
make New York City your own. Play your cards right and you could even
be running everything as the next, and most powerful, Don.

A story about family, respect and loyalty, The Godfather book by
Mario Puzo and film by Paramount Pictures serve as inspiration for the
game as you join the Corleone family and earn respect through loyalty
and fear as you rise through the ranks to become Don in a living,
1945-1955 New York. The Godfather® The Game will put you at the center
of action in one of history’s most revered cinematic masterpieces,
allowing you to create yourself in the game, and then choose your path
as you rise from lowly outsider to envied and feared Don.
The Godfather will offer gamers countless choices for solving the
family’s problems with brutal violence, skillful diplomacy, or a
cunning mixture of both. From mob hits and bank heists to drive-bys and
extortion, step deep inside the world of The Godfather where
intimidation and negotiation are your tickets to the top. Players will
use their powers of loyalty and fear to earn respect through
interactions with characters in the world. Decisions made by the player
in the game will have lasting consequences, just as it was in the mob
underworld featured in The Godfather fiction.
The Godfather film from Paramount Pictures featured some of
Hollywood’s finest actors and several are contributing to the game’s
development. All character likenesses from the movie will be included
and lending their voices to add a dramatic and cinematic touch to the
game are the late Marlon Brando as Don Vito Corleone, James Caan as
Sonny Corleone and Robert Duvall as consigliore Tom Hagen.
