Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them. But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive.
Jason Duval - “If anything happens, I'm right behind you.”
Jason wants an easy life, but things just keep getting harder. Jason grew up around grifters and crooks. After a stint in the Army trying to shake off his troubled teens, he found himself in the Keys doing what he knows best, working for local drug runners. It might be time to try something new.

Lucia Caminos - “The only thing that matters is who you know and what you got.”
Lucia’s father taught her to fight as soon as she could walk.
Life has been coming at her swinging ever since. Fighting for her family landed her in the Leonida Penitentiary. Sheer luck got her out. Lucia’s learned her lesson — only smart moves from here.
More than anything, Lucia wants the good life her mom has dreamed of since their days in Liberty City — but instead of half-baked fantasies, Lucia is prepared to take matters into her own hands.A life with Jason could be her way out.
Fresh out of prison and ready to change the odds in her favor, Lucia’s committed to her plan — no matter what it takes.Only in Leonida

Boobie might seem like he's just out for himself, but it's his partnership with the young aspiring music mogul Dre'Quan for Only Raw Records that he's most invested in — now they just need a hit.Dre'Quan Priest - “Dancers are like my A&Rs. If the record's a hit, DJs gonna be spinnin' it.”
Only Raw... Records

Now that he's signed the Real Dimez, Dre'Quan's days of booking acts into Boobie's strip club might be numbered as he sets his sights on the Vice City scene.Real Dimez - “All my dimes in this club. Meet my twin, make it a dub.”

Brian’s letting Jason live rent-free at one of his properties — so long as he helps with local shakedowns, and stops by for Lori’s sangria once in a while.Tour a few of the must-see destinations across the sunshine state.
Vice City - Everything in Excess
We're a long way from the '80s, but Vice City is still the sun and fun capital of America.
The glamour, hustle, and greed of America captured in a single city.
