In March 2014 there was a casting call for what many are thinks to be Mafia 3, and it seems one of the voice actors from Mafia 2 expects news to be revealed on the franchise soon.
This is according to tweets from January attributed to Rick Pasqualone who voiced Vito Scaletta in Mafia 2.

Mafia 2 and Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven 2K Czech was developed by Illusion Software before being bought out by Take-Two.
In December, 2K revealed a new studio called Hangar 13 which is being headed by Haden Blackma who is a LucasArts veteran and director of Star Wars game franchises.

Blackman announced in the press release that the studio’s goal is to “create next-generation games that allow players to shape their own experiences.”
This indicated to many people whether the Novato, California studio was working on the next entry in the series or at least helping out with development.
We’ll file this as a rumor for the time being until more concrete information becomes available.
