Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
What is Grand Theft Auto: Vice City?
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is an open world action-adventure video game. Set in 1986 in Vice City, a fictional city modeled after Miami, the story revolves around Mafia hitman Tommy Vercetti, who was recently released from prison. The game is set in 1986 in fictional Vice City, which is based heavily on the city of Miami, Florida. Because Vice City was built upon Grand Theft Auto III, the game follows a largely similar gameplay design and interface with GTA III with several tweaks and improvements over its predecessor. The gameplay is very open-ended, a characteristic of the Grand Theft Auto franchise.
