What This Cheat Does
This cheat reveals the media level meter, which indicates how well-known you are in Vice City. As you complete missions and engage in activities, your media presence changes, impacting how the public views Tommy Vercetti.
Using this cheat can help you gauge your progress and notoriety throughout the game. It’s especially useful for players looking to fully experience the impact of their actions in the vibrant world of Vice City.
How to Enter the Cheat
On PC
Type CHASESTAT during normal gameplay — there is no console or menu to open. A message confirms the cheat is active.
On PlayStation
Enter the button combo on your controller during gameplay — not while paused. A confirmation appears on screen.
On Xbox
Enter the button combo during gameplay. The game confirms the moment the cheat activates.
Good to Know
The media level meter can provide insight into how your actions affect public perception.
Heads up: GTA Vice City cheats can’t be turned off once entered — some keep running until you reload, and a few (especially the character-model cheats) can break missions and cutscenes, so use them on a separate save file. Entering cheats also disables achievements and trophies on the Definitive Edition.
