How to do a wheelie on a motorcycle in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City – Definitive Edition

How good is your wheelie game?

The definitive edition is here! Even though many aspects of the original game remain the same, some of the controls have changed. So, is it still the same input to do a wheelie in the new version of Vice City?

The answer is yes! But just in case you need a refresher, to do a wheelie on a motorbike, you will need to Pull Backwards on the Left Stick whilst you are accelerating. You can do this on Choppers and Harleys, but it works best on Racing and Dirt bikes.

Riding on bikes in Vice City was never the easiest, but it has been made a little easier with the updates to the game's engine. It still isn't the best, though. If you attempt to break whilst turning, you won't turn but just keep going in a straight line. So, there is still some nuance to driving in Vice City after all this time!

However, using the triggers for adaptive speed is a game-changer in terms of how the original game played. It definitely does feel like you have more control over the bike, and vehicles in general, so we'll take it!
