In an alternate 1980s Miami, criminal cartels harness an early version of the world wide web and dark web to run global operations around the clock. VICE Undercover drops players into this neon-lit world of cocaine trade, synth vibes, and crime cinema nods, all powered by advanced tech ahead of its time. The indie simulation adventure unfolds across 22 chapters and over 20 hours, with every character and organization hiding backstories to uncover.
Players boot up an iconic 1980s computer system like Windows 3.1, running over 15 apps such as databases, police tools, cartel software, and a music player. Gather intel by installing apps to access secrets, order hits, watch security cams, expose networks, and face moral choices. A retro-synthwave soundtrack plays through the Calypso Player with licensed tracks from genre artists and originals by producer LAU, drawing in fans of retro OS exploration and undercover cartel intrigue.
"CONNECTING US ALL WITH TECHNOLOGY ISN'T THE EXCLUSIVITY OF THE GOOD GUYS. WE SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING." - GEN. THOMAS GRAY JR. 1985
VICE UNDERCOVER
In an alternate 1980s Miami, the early inception of the world wide web allowed criminal empires, for the first time in history, to operate globally, in real-time, and remain open 24/7. The internet connected the world, but the dark web made crime widespread and virtually undetectable. Creating the golden age of the cartels.

VICE Undercover is steeped in the unique 1980s Miami atmosphere, from the neon aesthetic, synth soundtracks, and homages to classic crime cinema and TV, to - the cocaine trade. But in this alternate Miami, advanced technology existed much earlier than in reality.
