Mafia II (Classic) – How to Get All 50 Collectable Items in Mafia II + Playboy Magazines + Joe’s Adventures DLC

Introduction:

⭐ They can be collected as you play through each chapter of the game except Chapter 1. Each magazine depicts a centrefold model from the 1950’s – 1960’s era.

⭐ You can view your progress from the main menu under “Extras”, “Collectables”, then “Playboy”
.
⭐ Finding one magazine may earn you the Collector’s Item Achievement.

⭐ Finding all 50 will earn you the Ladies’ Man Achievement.

⭐ The magazines are numbered 1-50, but do not appear in order.

⭐ They must be collected in specific chapters and usually at a particular point in the mission; if you miss one you can select “Load Chapter” from the game menu at any time to replay it.

⭐ If a magazine does not appear at the listed location, you may need to exit then reenter the building or area. If this doesn’t work, replaying the chapter may be necessary.
