Mafia Wars Underworld Showdown Mini-Gift Event Starts Tonight


Hey looks like we are going to be having a new event coming later tonight. It is called Mafia Wars Underworld Showdown Mini-Gift Event.


It looks like it will be similar to the Big Game Event (Super Bowl) and it will have a gradual roll-out tonight so it doesn't cause havoc. This was pretty easy if you remember. 


So have fun everyone !!! And Thank you Jennifer The MW Loot Lady for catching this before Customer Service Page went down for maintenance.  


We're down to the final two fighters for Underworld Showdown. Will you and your friends have what it takes to win it all? Which fighter do you think will win it all Cara "Carnage" Carnivalo or Derek "Iced" Van Meurs?
Pick a fighter to own (or both if you're ambitious). Collect 10 weapons for that fighter (Game Face weapon or Cold Snap weapon).
For every 10 weapons you collect for the winning fighter, you will receive a Showdown Trophy. You can collect up to 5 sets (1 set = 10 weapons) of weapons for each fighter for a maximum of 5 Showdown Trophys for the winning fighter.
(Items names and attack and defense values are tentative)

Game Face (W) 31/43
Cold Snap (W) 43/31
Grand Prize: Showdown Trophy (W) 90/95


There is no limit to the number of weapons you can collect up until 9pm PST, Monday, March 7th. After that time, all uncollected weapons become Mystery Bags. Weapons can be collected via free gifts, wall posts, or purchased for 1 Reward Point each. On Tuesday, March 8th, players will receive automatically receive a Showdown Trophy for every 10 weapons they own for the winning fighter (up to a maximum of 3 Showdown Trophys)

FAQs

stability. (Not all players will have access initially)

  3. What a true waste of time again, if the weapons were better then in the 40's it might be worth the time....to get only 1 90/95, not worth the time....
