The game is played from the third-person perspective, giving players the ability to traverse and fight across the large city both on foot and in vehicles. Upon its release, GTA Vice City for PC received unanimous praise for the ambitious open-world design found in its predecessor, new action gameplay modes, period-accurate sounds and music, and more.
Built from the ground up to take full advantage of then-powerful PlayStation 2 hardware, this game was released on other platforms one year later, enabling PC users from all around the world to take full advantage of their powerful 3D rendering hardware and gain access to the modding tools that would greatly extend the life of this title.
