This game also represents the beginning of cooperation with worldwide publisher Take-Two Interactive. Their first 3D game was not so famous Flying Heroes, which featured fantasy mid-air action duels. In this game Illusion Softworks presented a brand new 3D engine called Ptero-Engine (game was developed together with Pterodon company). Illusion softworks' own 3D engine called LS3D engine was prepared for the game Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven, which was first released in 2002. The game met great acclaim from critics and was even labeled the best game about The Mob because of its original plot and revolutionary capabilities within gameplay. In 2003 Illusion Softworks released two games. A first-person shooter game Vietcong situated in the Vietnam War which had been developed alongside with Pterodon using their enhanced engine Ptero-Engine II and a successful continuation of the adventures of an SAS team during World War II: Hidden & Dangerous 2, also made with the LS3D engine. The official sequel to the Vietcong, named Vietcong 2 was released in 2005 (In cooperation with Pterodon). In September 2010, they released the long awaited sequel to Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven, Mafia II, and currently they work on its DLCs, having released two of them and having one more planned.
