MobLand tells the story of two mob families who clash in a major gang war. The official synopsis reads: "Power is up for grabs as two warring crime families clash in a battle that threatens to topple empires and ruin lives.
"In the crossfire stands Harry Da Souza, a street-smart 'fixer' who knows too well where loyalties lie when opposing forces collide."
The crime drama, which was created by Top Boy's Ronan Bennett, wrote the scripts alongside acclaimed playwright and screenwriter Jez Butterworth.
Speaking of the renewal, Butterworth said: "TV was a brand new world for me and I was reluctant to commit to a TV overall, but Chris, David [Glasser], and the teams at Paramount and 101 Studios completely changed my perspective with their bold creative vision and razor-sharp strategic insight."
He added that working on the first run had been "nothing short of inspiring" and said he was "excited to dive into the second season of MobLand".
The show also stars Paddy Considine, Joanne Froggatt, Lara Pulver, Anson Boon, Mandeep Dhillon, Jasmine Jobson, Geoff Bell, Lisa Dawn, Emily Barber and Daniel Betts.
