Rockstar Studios has a chance to show how much Vice City has changed in the last 40 years and how much weight the Versetti name still carries in its streets.
From 1986, when Vice City is set, to 2025, when GTA 6 is determinedIt is enough time for a city to completely forget its past. Many of the old characters may have moved on or passed away, and many of the businesses may have closed, but that doesn’t mean Rockstar Studios can’t recreate some of the classic missions or shows. Players how much the town remembers Tommy’s destructive behavior.

Tommy Vercetti created chaos in Riot
A mission that the Spand Express Company remembers
Avery Carrington was a normal big-money property developer who was always looking for the next major real estate opportunity. The Spand Express was just another company in its path of land ownershipAnd they had to go. Fortunately, Tommy Vercetti was relatively happy to oblige in the mission, “Riot.” With a bit of a disguise and a two-by-four to a couple of employee’s heads, the ball got rolling with ease.
Lucia and Jason should have the opportunity to start a riot of their own. This makes it the perfect mission to follow decades later.
in GTA 6It is likely that the tension in the city will be high to begin with. Lucia and Jason should have the opportunity to start a riot of their own. This makes it the perfect mission to follow decades later. Not to mention, everyone GTA Needs a tough riot To get the blood of the protagonist pumping. If you start a ruckus with the Spand Express employees in Vice City It was simple enough, it would be half as easy in 2025.

Loose ends mission makes a point
The government is the biggest gang
Almost everyone GTA The protagonist was forced to work alongside the law. The federal government and state police in these games are just as bloodthirsty and deceptive as the drug gangs themselves. So much so Tommy took the opportunity to wipe out both the FBI agents and the sharkswho tried to do a shady business on the roof. This kind of intelligence failure is something that happens with the FBI. Vice City will remain a black mark on their record even to this day.
In a city where the FBI has been so grossly embarrassed by Tommy, they will be unlikely to be caught unawares by a possible loose end such as Lucia, as the Vice City mission title suggests.
The running theme of Government interactions with GTA Protagonists will likely continue in GTA 6. Getting out of prison could be a prologue to Lucia’s storyline, Or perhaps a caveat to her release is intervention and monitoring of law involvement. In a town where the FBI was so grossly embarrassed by Tommy, they would be unlikely to be caught off guard by a possible loose end such as Lucia, as the Vice City Mission title suggests. It’s not the improved police AI the player will need to worry about, but the almost certain federal agent character-enforcing missions.

Demolition Man is a wackier mission to follow
Who needs a drone when an RC is offered
Vice City was known for its hacky missions, and “Demolition man“ Taking bomb planting to a ridiculous level. Tommy needs to use his toy helicopter flying skills to place four explosives around a construction site. Once again, Avery is still property, and back in 1986, there were far fewer tools available for a property tycoon to carry out his idea of destruction. The RC Goblin flying around a construction site would attract more attention in 2025 As in the years of Vice City.

GTA 6 Could use new old technology To plant their explosives, perhaps from the safety of a bedroom with a remote control drone, zipping in and out of buildings. But it shouldn’t. If a new Avery character is in the works for GTA 6His budget should be much less. The return of an archaic RC is the only mobile device Lucia and Jason should have access to. A drone is too easy, while an RC older than they are, still sitting in a top van won, could be the comedic act of destruction the player needs.

Sir, yes sir could incorporate tank play
What’s better than early game invincibility?
In the mission “Lord, yes Lord,” Tommy was able to get a tank pretty early in the game and wreak havoc across the city. All he needed was a short distraction and a hard bullet to bring him down completely. Fortunately for him, the army quickly forgets that a tank is stolen, and he is able to take it down without much worry. GTA yet GTA Then offers a tank ride, And GTA online Makes the tank a common vehicle to speed around town in. Driving a tank is overdone and boring.
Drones may be the right fit for their abilities, but nothing beats riding an untouchable, armored vehicle as a welcome to a new GTA city.
GTA 6 Will need something bigger and better to top Vice City. With the abundance of missions that are likely to be available to the player in relation to the military, there is little doubt that some kind of explosive vehicle Joyride is in the future. With the new technology in 2025, there are so many more options for Grand Theft Auto than a tank. Drones may be the right fit for their abilities, but nothing beats riding an untouchable, armored vehicle as a welcome to a new GTA City.

Keep your friends close… is an iconic mission to replicate
I sell you, Tommy
One of the most iconic characters in both Vice City History and GTA In general it is Tommy’s best friend and biggest traitor, Lance Vance. Big smoke in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Sure hit hard, but no character lands the betrayal card quite like Lance. Lance wanted to be the big shot; He wanted to be the main character of the story, but unfortunately for him, he was an NPC. Tommy led Lance to the top and tried to push Tommy over the edge.

Grand Theft Auto 5s Final Mission has a similar concept From what GTA 6 Could draw if the Developers felt ambitious enough to try to top Vice City Betrayal. Franklin Clinton had the option to surrender either Michael De Santa or Trevor Phillips, though most players likely chose “Deathwish,” but the difference is the tree of GTA 5 were basically business partners. Lucia and Jason are portrayed as very close. A betrayal between the pair might just be the performance that knocks Lance off the top.

Two bit beat is a classic gang rivalry
Four bullets and a funeral
In 1986, Tommy jump-started a drug war between the Haitian and Cuban drug gangs for Avery in the mission, “Two little hits. Real estate was too expensive, and Avery prepared another plan to secure the prices he wanted. After dressing up as a Cuban gang member and jumping a Haitian gang funeralThe bad blood between the rival gangs was cemented. Everyone loses in a drug war, except Avery. Avery always won. The ongoing conflict will certainly affect the fortunes of the city even in 2025.
Even if the gang war has come to an end and there is relative peace, the ripple of gun violence and senseless deaths across the city due to Tommy’s intervention will probably still be felt. Turf wars between gangs are nothing new GTAHowever GTA 6 Will hopefully show the ramifications of Tommy’s actions In a continuous design between the two communities. Skipping a funeral and slaughtering the attendees is poor form, even for drug gangs. The effects of this mission may show the more unpleasant reality of the GTA World.

Cabmageddon could revise a fun callback
The War of the Cubs
Drug gangs aren’t the only ones Group in Vice City who wanted to control their turf. Cab companies have roads to man and a reputation to maintain. in the Vice City mission, “cabmagdon,“ Tommy is forced to resist a horde of crazy cab drivers not happy with him to continue with their business. It’s a feud like no other in the game and has some of the most fun interactions in a mission. Avoiding ramming cabs was like a fatal version of bumper cars.
If there was any string of missions to recreate in GTA 6 To encapsulate the eccentric style of gameplay in Vice City, It is “Cabmagdon.” The cab is a staple of any GTA game and is used for missions, traveling and even character side jobs. With VC cabs utterly destroyed by Tommy 40 years earlier, there will be a new ruling cab faction for Lucia and Jason to challenge. .Hopefully, Rockstar Studios uses both the mission style of avoiding charging cabs and exploring the cab company hierarchy that Tommy helped establish.

Publicity tour may revisit the best band
Can you handle the bus? It’s like a big limo
“Publicity tour” is The Vice City Mission with homage to Keanu Reeves’ film, Speed. An obsessive individual plants a bomb on a limo that Tommy is ferrying around the band, Love Fist. During a desperate bid to disarm the device, Tommy is forced to drive around and stay above a certain speed to avoid the bomb. A limo is more personal than a bus, but when Speed upgraded from a bus to a boat, GTA Has yet to go bigger than the limo.
During a desperate bid to disarm the device, Tommy is forced to drive around and stay above a certain speed to avoid the bomb.
GTA 6 City will have an abundance of people willing to go the extra mile to get the attention of the celebrity they love. If Love Fist have a well-needed reunion tour in Vice City And needing a driver to get them around, Lucia or Jason could run into the same problem as Tommy. It is unlikely that the gang will trust a limo again and be more inclined to take something safer, like a private jet. A fan who is ready to blow the band they love is just as likely to try again, 40 years later, and a change of transport will not stop them.

Ken Rosenburg Missions could revisit the classics
A criminal lawyer for life
GTA 6 Can do more than recreate missions For a new audience or observe how the town is affected by Tommy’s antics. Ken Rosenburg was a secondary protagonist in Vice CitySupport Tommy through his life of crime and climbing to kingpin. Even though his drug addiction caused a rift between them and Ken later in San Andreas As a mission giver to Carl Johnson, there is still room for him in GTA 6.

In the year 2025, Ken will be the ripe old age of 72. Many of the characters in Vice City may have passed between the games and even Ken surviving to that age would be quite an achievement considering his lifestyle. Nevertheless, if Lucia and Jason need a guiding hand through the city In the ways of a former drug lord and legend, Ken is the perfect mentor. If anything, Ken would want Tommy to be outshined.

The legacy of Tommy Vercetti is the most iconic mission
Can the most famous person in Vice City ever be topped?
All the missions and the whole Vice City Play accumulated to the creation of one of these Most memorable and recognizable protagonist, Tommy Vercetti. People who have never played Vice City Most probably still know the name, and those who really look back on his characterization with pleasant nostalgia. Tommy was the Scarface who survived and succeeded and changed the direction of Vice City forever. If something in the past affects the city of GTA 6It’s Tommy’s legacy.
It would be a disservice to the world of GTA 6 To have memories of Tommy’s achievements and crimes forgotten. If the direction of the game was to ignore almost everything else over Grand Theft Auto: Vice City‘‘s story and start fresh with characters, missions and locations, the only thing they should try to keep is Tommy’s influence. Lucia and Jason will know the name Tommy Vercetti – it’s a given.
