With what originally seemed like an April's Fools joke with the release being announced on April 1st, 2025, the team behind the original GTAIII port to the Dreamcast, which is currently still being polished and optimized, unveiled that they are now working on a port of Vice City to the Dreamcast as well using the very same optimized source code utilized for the GTAIII DC port, with beta footage of the Vice City port being shared of the game running on a real Dreamcast, albeit initially with no audio, but the progress is looking really promising for a project in such an infant stage.
Most of the heavy lifting has already been accomplished thanks to the initial port of GTAIII, which helped lay the groundwork for a port of Vice City to become a possibility on the Dreamcast system.
While the port itself is still in early stages, the current game is already playable, according to some reports, from start to finish, although the developers of the project mention that there's still a good amount of work to be for the port to reach a stable state, mostly focusing on performance, assets and features.
People interested in trying out this port can do so by providing the assets of their legally owned GTA Vice City game, and compiling the Dreamcast port from SKMP's repository by following the instructions given in the same repository for a proper compilation of the game, as well as what game release to use as the base and source for the assets.
