Mafia The Old Country Trophy Guide & Roadmap

Note that the trophy can’t be cheated by replaying just the final chapter on hard, nor will it unlock when you switch from easy to hard before the last boss. It has to be the whole game.

Hard difficulty isn’t too hard at all. If you are near death you will automatically regenerate one health segment after a few seconds, allowing you to take another hit. There is also plenty of ammo and healing items from looting enemies. Stay in cover, go for headshots when possible. Especially the Pump-Action Shotgun and Praecione Rifle are good to kill enemies in one hit.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 5 – Vendetta D’onore

During main objective “Infiltrate Ludovici’s Villa”, you have to enter the villa without alerting any guards. The trophy will pop after interacting with the white door inside the villa that starts the cutscene with Ludovici. Knocking out enemies from behind is allowed and doesn’t count as them “seeing” you. If you get spotted simply restart the checkpoint.

Here’s the easiest path:

1. You will start outside the villa grounds. To the left of the main gate is a smaller side gate, approach it and the guard will walk away. Pry open the gate with a knife (must be sharpened). Knock out the guard from behind or simply walk past him.
2. Take the left path uphill where 2 guards are talking. Toss a coin to their right to distact them, then quickly go up the path to their left and up the ladder into a building.
3. Go through the wooden door in the back of this building. Ignore the two guards who are talking at the car.
4. You will reach the staircase leading up to the villa. There are two guards talking in front of the stairs. Grab a bottle from the left and throw it on the ground in front of them to distract them (or toss a coin), then quickly sneak up the stairs behind them.
5. There’s one guard at the top of the stairs, press to see his outline. When he’s standing in the middle, approach from behind and knock him out.
6. Now you can safely go inside and interact with the white door that starts the cutscene. Trophy unlocked!

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 13 – Capiregime

During main objective “Kill Mazzone”, you will be in the woods at an enemy camp. You must sneak past the guards, reach and kill Mazzone without alerting anyone. If you get spotted restart the checkpoint.

Easiest path:

1. Take down the first guard from behind. To his right go down the path to the stream, climb up the wall when patrolling guard on top is walking to the left. Sneak away to the right side (no need to defeat any other guards in this area).
2. You will reach 2 guards talking. Grab a bottle from the right and throw it to their far left. Quickly sneak up the stairs behind them.
3. Next area only has 1 single enemy. Can sneak behind him to reach Mazzone.
4. Wait until Mazzone has his back turned at you. Sneak up to him and press for a stealthkill with the knife.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 11 – Mattanza

During main objective “Defend the truck” you will be standing on the back of a truck and get chased by enemy cars. For the main objective you must shoot at the cars to destroy them. This is pretty much an unmissable story trophy. You only need to destroy 10 cars but there are more than that. Shoot their motor a few times until they catch fire, this will count as having “eliminated” them.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 3 – Pizzu

At the very start of Chapter 3, during main objective “Meet Luca at the Stables”, you will get an optional objective “Meet Isabella in the garden”. Follow the white marker to the garden. The trophy pops after a cutscene.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 14 – La Merica

After main objective “Get to Isabella” you will have a mandatory knife fight against Don Torrisi. During the knife fight you must defeat him without taking any damage. If you get hit you’re allowed to restart checkpoints and will still earn the trophy (there are two checkpoints during the fight). To keep it simple, use only stabs with and when he blocks use 2-3 times in a row to break his guard and deal heavy damage. If he isn’t blocking be careful as he can strike at any moment. Don’t try to block his attacks, uses dodges instead, this is easier than timing your blocks. So just stab, if he blocks do a guardbreak, if he doesn’t block dodge backward.

The section in the mine prior to this where Don Torrisi shoots at you doesn’t matter. If you get hit there it doesn’t void the trophy. Only the knife fight matters.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 7 – Spirito Sportivo

During main objective “Win the race”, you will drive a racecar in a 6-person sprint race. You must reach the finish line within 8:00 minutes. This is pretty much an automatic story trophy because to win the race for the story you’ll do it in under 8 minutes anyway. The time limit is very generous, it can be done in under 6:15 if using the shortcuts. There’s no need to drive perfectly. If you have a big crash you can restart the checkpoint. There are multiple checkpoints throughout the race so you don’t need to replay the entire race if you restart. If needed you can also replay this via chapter select.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 13 – Capiregime

Just after killing Mazzone you will ride the horse to main objective “Help Cesare”. As soon as you arrive the objective updates to “Kill Caccini”, you will see Caccini run away from you behind the enemies. Instead of going after him, ignore the enemies and go to the left of the area where 2 cars are parked. Destroy the left car that’s parked further back, that’s Caccini’s car. With it destroyed he can’t escape and will get stuck there. Now kill the enemies (or run past them) and Caccini will stand in front of his destroyed car, instead of him driving away. You can kill him here to pop the trophy.

Now go to any garage (there’s one outside Paquale’s Store) > press to switch to “Styles” > equip any color.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 7 – Spirito Sportivo

During main objective “Race the train”, you must test-drive a racecar by chasing a train. You have to reach the finish line before the train. Hold down the acceleration the entire time without slowing down. If you crash, restart the checkpoint.

The trophy description is a bit wrong/misleading for this.

There are 3 TYPES of knives: Scannaturi, Rasolu, Stiletto. You only need to use each knife class special combat skill 5 times for ONE KNIFE of EACH CLASS. Stilettos don’t have a combat skill, so you only need 2 knives total: Scannaturi + Rasolu. At weapon boxes where you equip knives it shows the “Special Action” under “Durability” (NOT the Perks).

Using the special skill consumes knife sharpness, so make sure you have sharpness slots remaining. It can be farmed via checkpoint restart. An easy spot is Chapter 5 – Objective: Infiltrate Ludovici’s Villa. Where you talk to Tino before infiltrating the villa, there’s a knife box that lets you change knife types. Use the knife special ability on 5 enemies, restart checkpoint, switch knife type and repeat. You can also buy all knife types at the weapons box there, can use the cheapest knives that cost 200 money.

• Scannaturi: “Scannaturi Knives can be used to perform Knife Throw Takedowns” – Press  to equip the knife and again to throw it at enemies. Collect the knife from the defeated enemy, do this 5 times total with any one Scannaturi Knife (no need to do it with each knife).
  
• Rasolu: “Rasolu Knives can be used to perform Takedowns during Combat” – Run up to enemies in combat and press to perform an instakill with the knife, consumes 1 slot of sharpness. Only works if the knife has sharpness remaining. Do this 5 times total with any one Rasolu Knife (no need to do it with each knife).
  
• Stiletto: “Stiletto Knives have high Durability” – Stilettos don’t have a special skill for combat and aren’t required for the trophy.
  

The first Charm can be found at the end of Chapter 1, during objective “Get ready for the meal”. When you are supposed to interact with the bathtub in your room, the Sant’Agata Charm is to the right of the bathtub.

For example, here is one in San Celeste directly in front of a fast travel point, best done in free-roam:

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 5 – Vendetta D’onore

During main objective “Execute Ludovici”, Tino will tell you to kill him. Instead of shooting Ludovici, intentionally miss the shot and Tino will execute you instead, which results in a game over and unlocks the trophy.

Note: during the chase at Ludovici’s villa, you will get the task to get Ludovici alive, but you can’t do anything wrong here. For the main story objective you will always capture him alive and bring him to Tino (if Ludovici dies during the chase it results in a game over). So no matter how you played the chapter, you will always deliver Ludovici alive to Tino and can then do the trophy.

Do not confuse them with notes, which are listed in the Journal Menu and not needed for trophies. Newspapers are the ones specifically listed under the Collection menu.

*Chapter-Specific*

Chapter 9 – Industria

During main objective “Find a way into the foreman’s office” you will have to sneak through a factory. Reach the objective at the end without alerting any enemies. You can do stealth-takedowns and sneak past most enemies. If you get spotted, restart the checkpoint to retry.

Easiest path:

1. You start ouside the factory. Take the path to the right of the main gate, take down the enemy at the small gate, then pry open the gate with your knife.
2. Take down the two enemies on the right side. Then enter the factory from the right.
3. Inside the factory wait for the 2 guards to finish talking. Then one walks away. Take down the one who remains standing in the same spot.
4. Go halfway through this room and take the left exit (ignore the 2 guards standing at the end).
5. The left exit leads back outside, take out the 2 guards there. Then you can enter the path in the middle. Take out the patrolling guard.
6. Enter the next room. Wait for the guards to finish talking and wait for the third guard to stop looking in your direction. Take down the 3 guards in this room one by one while they have their backs turned to you.
7. Go up the stairs at the end and open the door to the foreman’s office. Trophy unlocked!

It won’t count if you run up to enemies in open combat and repeatedly slash them with knife attacks. Only the 1-hit stealth takedowns count for the trophy.

*MISSABLE* – If you collect all notes containing safe combinations they will stay in your inventory even when replaying chapters. The game treats this as already knowing the combination and then it won’t unlock via Chapter Replay.

This is best done in Chapter 3, at the Citrus Farm during main objective “Collect the money”. Here the story makes you open a safe for the first time. Normally, you’d get the safe code by collecting the notes in the same room where the safe is. However, for this trophy DON’T collect the text notes and enter the combination directly, it is: 10-20-30 for this safe.

It’s always the same combination. When you open the safe without having read the note that contains the combination, you’ll earn the trophy. It doesn’t seem to unlock through chapter replay in this section if you already collected the note previously. If you already opened this safe, there are many other safes throughout the game. You can make a PS+ backup when reaching a safe, then read the notes to get the code, redownload your PS+ backup (thus removing the note) and open the safe directly.

Below is a list of safe locations and codes:

• Chapter 3 – Objective: Enter the Citrus Farm – story-related safe: 10-20-30
• Chapter 3 – Objective: Reach the impound yard – in the stealth section: 21-10-08
• Chapter 6 – Objective: Find the printing plates – 3 safe codes: 00-01-02 / 28-34-12 / 02-19-62

Shoot the motor of one of your cars until it catches fire. Then use the crank at the front of the car to kickstart the motor again. This is best done in free drive mode (free roam), which unlocks during story chapter 3. Then you can go to Title Screen > Carcyclopedia > hold to Drive.

This is best done in free-roam mode. Get a fast car, for example the Carozella Mark 2 racecar (unlocked for free from Chapter 7). Then go to the location shown in the video above and jump off the ramp at high speed. Can fast travel to Pasquale’s Gas Station to get the car at the garage, then in front of the garage drive onto the train tracks and to the right, jump off the first ramp a couple hundred meters down the train track.

All cars will be available for purchase after Chapter 7. You can then buy them at any garage either during the story or in free-roam mode. Buying all of them costs 11,000 money total. If you need more money, start Chapter 7 and in the first room where the chapter starts are 2 blue chests. Open them, restart checkpoint, repeat. They give around 100 money each (more if you equip a Charm/Bead that gives more money). You can quit the chapter immediately when you got enough money and it carries over to free-roam mode.

The garages where you buy vehicles are marked as fast travel points on the map, for example at Villa Torrisi and Pasquale’s Store.

Purchasable Cars List (11,000 money total):

1. Dufort 30 – 1,000 money
2. Beneventi 24HP – 1,000 money
3. Eckhart Dominion – 1,500 money
4. Trautenberg Sport-Renner – 1,500 money
5. Dufort Camionette – 1,500 money
6. Trautenberg 3600TF – 2,000 money
7. Delizia Type 86 – 2,500 money

This is best done in free-roam but can also be earned during the story.

First you’ll need to unlock a fast enough car that reaches top speeds over 120 km/h. During Chapter 7 you automatically unlock the “Carozella Mark 2” car for free, it reaches 162 km/h.

Now go into free roam mode and drive on a long straight road, maintain high speed for 15+ seconds to pop the trophy. For example, from Porto Almaro fast travel point take the road leading northeast.

Alternatively, you can also earn it during the Chapter 7 race event. Shortly after the start of the race, after exiting the town, there’s a long relatively straight stretch of road, if you drive perfectly without crashing or breaking you can earn the trophy there.
