As for what happened to Tommy Vercetti, he became the kingpin of Vice City and could possibly still be alive in GTA's modern era. Victor is killed at the beginning of Vice City in an ambushed drug deal. Some fans speculated Lance's murdered brother may have been Pete, instead, as Victor shows no interest in continuing to deal drugs at the end of Vice City Stories, but Rockstar confirmed in 2009 that it was indeed Victor. If the name Vance sounds familiar to fans, it’s because Victor’s other brother, Lance Vance, works with, betrays, and is eventually killed by Tommy in Vice City.

Victor gets into the drug business out of necessity, seeking to pay for medicine for his ill brother, Pete Vance, but Tommy aims to reenter a life of crime for potential financial gain.

Vice City Stories' protagonist is Victor Vance, a Corporal in the army stationed at Vice City’s Fort Baxter, while the protagonist of Vice City is Tommy Vercetti, a mobster who was recently released from prison after serving 15 years for murder. GTA: Vice City Stories is a prequel to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, with Vice City Stories taking place in 1984, two years before the events of Vice City. Still, despite this similarity, the two games approached Vice City's drug operations in completely different ways. Sure, it would be interesting to see a modernized Vice City free of drugs, but this likely won’t be the case, as both GTA: Vice City and GTA: Vice City Stories brought players into the city’s drug operations. If GTA 6 does take place in the Grand Theft Auto equivalent of Miami, players would likely find themselves seeing various Vice City callbacks, like references to Tommy Vercetti and involvement in the drug wars that dominate the city.
