The game contains numerous bloody shootouts as well as stabbings, bombings, and executions and point-blank range.
There are numerous violent beatings and brutal takedown finishing moves which involve lots of punching and kicking.
This game is set in a 1940/1950's setting, so the world is openly available, violence isnt frowned upon in this game, but it isnt encouraged.
You can randomly shoot innocent people in the street which shows them begging for mercy and pools of blood.
The scenes of graphic violence are disturbing. A man is brutally murdered and is screaming while people hack him to death with meat cleavers.

There is a ton of language throughout, as the game has two Guiness book records.
397 Uses of f**k and it's derivatives. About 150-175 uses of s**t, as well as dozens of uses of b**ch, b***ard, a*shole and cunt is used 12 times
NOTE
That racist terms such as "Ch*nk" and "N*gger" are used many times throughout as well, this game is set in the 1940's and 1950's. Racism was openly used in those times, and it used very frequently in the game
Most, probably 75% of the profanity comes from one character, who is very important within the game, and he is in almost every mission.

There is constant heavy drinking throughout. In one scene two men are very heavily intoxicated.
The ability to not play the mission is possible, in which case there are several bars available where you can openly get drunk at. Different alcohols in the game contain stronger kicks. Example: Whiskey is the strongest.
Vito and Joe deal cigarrettes and people are seen smoking.
Some mobsters deal Heroin in the game, and there is a scene of a man tasting it to make sure it's good before selling it.

Not recommended for anyone under age 18.
The shootouts are graphic.
Mafia 2 is a very violent game.
A man is mutilated by a triad gang with meat cleavers while screaming in terror on the ground. This is quite frightening and intense. He can also be heard gargling afterwards.
