So, as you hop into a Lassiter Leopard and cruise through Mafia III’s streets of New Bordeaux, crank up the radio. You’ll have more than 100 classic songs that will send you back to a very different time.
Rather than make you wait until the game’s launch on October 7, though, you can groove to the sounds of 1968 New Bordeaux starting today on Pandora with the Mafia III Hit List.
