2K and Hanger 13 released two updates for Mafia 3 today, one a patch that contains several recent updates and the other in the form of free DLC outfits.

"The dev team has also been hard at work addressing your feedback since the game launched on October 7," wrote developers at Hanger 13. "We’re happy to report that we’ve made a number of improvements on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One that are included in the patch that is rolling out on all platforms now."

Those updates are listed below. Hangar 13 went on to explain that it will follow this patch with more updates in the future.

Additionally, the developer added 11 outfits encompassing a wide array of styles and themes. Formal wear, windbreakers, and more are available.

Mafia 3 has garnered mixed reviews since its release last month. Many critics praised its bold choice of a biracial protagonist in Lincoln Clay, but criticized its repetitive quests and gameplay.

"The simple revenge plot, that we’ve seen overdone so many times throughout history, leads players through one of the most turbulent times in American history," wrote Shacknews editor Joshua Hawkins in his review. "It’s a journey that fits good together, with each punch leading to the next in a smooth and enjoyable fashion. You just can’t help feeling tied to Lincoln, and sympathizing with him despite his violent and destructive actions."
