Mafia Wars Market Opens

Mafia Wars Players!

We’ve given the Godfather page a makeover with the introduction of the Marketplace! Our goal was to create a page with a fresh new look; something that’s easy to navigate and that will contribute to your game play.


With the new Marketplace, you’ll never miss out on another Limited Edition item on sale. We’ll have easy-to-find hourly sales specials, and you’ll be able to find the coolest loot from the categorized pull-down menus. Get the scoop on what the most coveted items in the game are by checking out the ‘Best Sellers’ and ‘Hot and New’ categories.

There’ll be no more stress for you about how to spend your Reward Points. Now you’ll have items recommended especially for you based on previous purchases and your personal style of game play. Just check out the ‘Recommended for You’ section and you’re all set. If you’re a fighter, you’ll be shown the best attack weapons for the game, and if you’re all about protecting your holdings, we’ll showcase our awesome defense items.

The Marketplace now accepts international payments, and offers over 20 different types of currencies to accommodate our international players. To celebrate the grand opening, we are giving you 2 free Reward Points to use.

Mafia Wars New York Properties Upgrade

Facebook Mafia Wars is gonna start pimping the New York properties.


We'll be introducing some changes to promote the return of robbing!

1) We'll have properties switched to Flash mode, so make sure you have the latest version.

2) We'll be getting rid of 'undeveloped space'. The costs of undeveloped space will be folded into the costs of the updated properties. If you currently have any undeveloped properties, it’ll be sold off and you'll have your money returned to you.

3) Instead of owning 30 Mega Casinos, you will have 1 Mega Casino, but it will have been upgraded 30 times.

4) You won't be able to sell properties anymore, but you can continue to upgrade them. If you still haven't earned your "Cashing Out" achievement, do it soon!

5) All properties will have the same payout over time that they currently do, but some of the rates will change. They will take between 8 hours and 2 days to fill up. For example, say you currently owned 2 mega casinos. They produce $1,800,000 every 3 hours for you to collect. In the new system, you will now own a single level 2 Mega Casino, and it will produce $28,800,000 every 48 hours for you to collect.

6) You can only collect on your property once it is done producing. There will be progress bars and countdown timers letting you know how long it will be before you can collect on each property.

7) Properties will no longer "shut down". *Note: This only affects users who have started playing in the last few months.

8) People who have Rackets will be folded into the new system as well, but that change will take place a week or two after the launch of the new properties.

An important point we want to emphasize is that you will NOT be losing any money when we change the New York properties; it will all stay within the game. These upgrades are going hand-in-hand with the robbing feature that we'll be bringing back due to popular demand.

Hope you guys are looking forward to this change.

Facebook Mafia Wars Bangkok Passport System


Mafia Wars Bangkok is now officially in open beta! If you've already collected the 3 hidden items in the New York jobs and are level 18 and above, you're eligible to grab your passport and continue growing your Mafia empire in Thailand!

3 ways to get your Thailand/Bangkok passport:

See the clerk, ask your friends, or bribe an official. You can only see the clerk once a day for a passport drop. If you don't get one on your first try, don't give up - the clerk will grant you access soon enough if you keep being persistent. You can also post a request for a passport and see if some of your more well-connected Mafia members can hook you up. If you're really itching to get your travel started, bribing an official is your guarantee for instant access. Not only will you get a passport for yourself, you'll get 3 additional ones to hand out to some very lucky Mafia members.

Our goal for this passport distribution system is to maintain a steady flow of users coming into the new city to keep the Bangkok servers running smoothly for everyone. We want to provide exciting and uninterrupted game play for all, while giving you a fun and challenging obstacle to conquer.

Facebook MafiaWars Feature: Declare War

Ever had bad feelings towards a family member in the Mafia?
Now it's your chance to finally settle it, Don.

Declaring War lets you settle a beef with your friends.


Each war lasts 12 hours with each player's entire mafia racing to eliminate the other's top mafia. Each friend only gets one attack, so choose your target wisely. The results of a fight use your actual weapons and skills, although it does not cost stamina or health.

Once a Don's Top Mafia is eliminated, your mafia can take out your ultimate target.

If the timer finishes, the Don with the most Top Mafia left standing wins the War.

Facebook MafiaWars Robbing Update Fixed

By spending Stamina you can attack an enemy's property and steal money from the property. Robbing is harder than a fight, as you can only bring a number of Mafia members equal to your Level, even if you have more members in your Mafia.

When a property is protected (denoted by dark blue shields on the image) it has a higher Defense than normal. Each successful attack will remove one shield, damage the property, and reward you with money and experience. When a property is damaged too much it cannot be attacked further. The police arrive to break up the party.

This feature is still in BETA, and is unlocked at level 15.
