Mafia Wars Holiday Gifting!

The new Mafia Wars Holiday Gifting has rolled out over night and there are some interesting finds indeed. You start off with one present and then you get to beg your friends to send you more. You can open a present every 14 hours(10 every 3 days) or you can spend gf points to open presents early.

There is a reward for giving someone a gift, shown below. These numbers apparently vary by the players stats.

Opening these gifts yields mid grade items(so far) as well as a chance to get an xbox360 or Mafia Wars coat. I will be amassing a list of found items as I get them:

Mafia Wars Holiday Event in full force!

Here are the giftable holiday items with stats!

Note that the top three are vehicles and the scarf is armor. As usual, nothing amazing, but I wouldn’t expect it from giftables.

Mafia Wars Holiday Loot Event!

Here is some info on the upcoming holiday loot event. There is no word on whether this is Facbook only, though with a holiday this large it will most likely be for all platforms.

Wondering what we have in store for you for the holidays? Wait no longer! Starting on Friday, December 18th at 12:01am PT and continuing through December 24th at 11:59pm PT, it’s officially Mafia Wars Holiday Week! During this fun filled week, there will be a featured job entitled, “Bring the Family Together” where you’ll be awarded with a special holiday item for each stage of the job you complete and a mastery item if you’re able to successfully complete your mission.

Also we’re introducing the Gift Safe House, your secret location to get mystery gift boxes stuffed with free limited edition items. Some gift boxes will even contain a ticket to win a real Xbox 360 or an exclusive Mafia Wars jacket! Simply ask your mafia to fill your safe house with gifts and if your mafia is truly loyal to you, they’ll help you out. Who knows? There might even be something in it for them too!

Finally, if that wasn’t enough for you, starting Tuesday, December 22nd at 12:01am PT and going till Monday December 28th at 11:59pm PT, we’ll also be conducting a Holiday Blowout Sale in similar fashion to our Black Friday sale, where you can buy limited edition loot, boosts, and consumables at ridiculous prices. In particular, check out our hourly specials and featured loot.

Happy Holidays,

Curtis, Senior Product Manager
