Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories is an action-adventure game set in Liberty City in 1998 and serves as a prequel to Grand Theft Auto III. You play as Toni Cipriani, a member of the Leone crime family, returning from hiding to reestablish his place in the organization. The game delivers open-world exploration, mission-driven progression, and a variety of side activities that reflect the series’ signature gameplay.

Toni Cipriani returns to Liberty City after being forced to live abroad for killing a made man on the orders of Salvatore Leone. When he arrives, Salvatore welcomes him alongside Leone family member Vincenzo “Lucky Vinnie” Cilli, who gained status during Toni’s absence. Salvatore tells Vincenzo to arrange an apartment and work for Toni, but Toni soon quits after realizing Vincenzo set him up with a job meant to get him arrested. Toni then starts working with J.D. O’Toole, a former member of the rival Sindacco crime family who is now loyal to the Leones. The partnership is short-lived: another Leone member is ordered to kill O’Toole on the very day he was supposed to become a made man.
