Vigilante Missions

Complete the Vigilante Missions in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Learn how to start them, what rewards you get, and tips for success.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    To start a Vigilante mission, enter any police vehicle (Police Car, Police Bike, FBI Rancher, or Barracks OL).
  2. 2
    Once the mission starts, you'll be given a target (or multiple targets) to eliminate. These are usually criminals in cars.
  3. 3
    Chase down the target vehicles and destroy them. You can use your vehicle's weapons or shoot them directly.
  4. 4
    Be careful not to cause too much collateral damage or kill innocent civilians, as this will increase your wanted level and can cause you to fail the mission.
  5. 5
    After eliminating all targets in a level, a new level will begin with more challenging targets and potentially faster vehicles.
  6. 6
    There are typically 12 levels for each Vigilante mission set.
Tips
  • The Police Cheetah and FBI Rancher are excellent vehicles for Vigilante missions due to their speed and durability.
  • The Barracks OL is slow but heavily armored, making it good for taking out multiple targets at once.
  • If you're struggling with a level, try to find a police vehicle with a weapon already equipped, like the Police Cheetah.
  • Save frequently, especially before starting a Vigilante mission, as failing can be frustrating.
  • Consider completing the missions on a separate save file if you're worried about your wanted level in your main game.

Completing each level of the Vigilante mission will increase your cash reward. Reaching certain milestones will also unlock powerful weapons at Ammu-Nation stores:

  • Completing Level 2: Unlocks the Shotgun at Ammu-Nation.
  • Completing Level 4: Unlocks the Uzi at Ammu-Nation.
  • Completing Level 6: Unlocks the MP5 at Ammu-Nation.
  • Completing Level 8: Unlocks the M4 at Ammu-Nation.
  • Completing Level 10: Unlocks the Minigun at Ammu-Nation.
  • Completing Level 12: Unlocks the Rocket Launcher at Ammu-Nation.

Additionally, completing all 12 levels of the Vigilante missions for a specific vehicle will grant you a significant cash bonus and potentially increase your maximum health or armor (depending on the game version and platform).
