A sequel was released in 2009, loosely adapting ''The Godfather Part II'' into another struggle between the Corleones and new crime families with Hyman Roth's attempts to take over Cuba in the background. Major additions to the mechanics include the Don's View, a semi-strategic overview of the cities present, as well as the ability to build your own BadassCrew. Poor commercial performance of the sequel has put a third game on the backburners.
