Sharks are aquatic species featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, subject to many myths in the game.
Description[]
Sharks are proven to appear in GTA Vice City, modeled after bull sharks. These sea creatures are known to spawn all around the city, albeit not as frequently as other sea animals. Sharks in GTA Vice City do not take damage when shot at and cannot be interacted with them. Sharks do not have any movement animation while swimming. Due to their gray color, they can easily be mistaken for dolphins. As noted before, sharks are very rare, and the best way to spot one is to get a high vantage point overlooking the water and scan the surface of the ocean in first-person view, or the ability to aim a weapon. They appear in the game file shark.txd with the filename sharky.
A Giant Shark model can be found in the "D" wing of the InterGlobal Studios. The prop was used for the movie Bite, starring Candy Suxxx.
Sharks are mentioned in the GTA Vice City manual:
| “ | Shark attacks off Vice City happen a few times a year and there are more sharks out there than you would like to think - Best advice: Stay out of the water! | ” |
That possibly hints that sharks were added to prevent players to swim in the game, or a reference to the Megalodon Shark, a highly debated myth in GTA Vice City.
