Rockstar's repost turns a regular-season NBA game into a marketing event placed the night before GTA VI arrives, a timing the league team chose rather than the game's publisher.

The Miami Heat announced that their November 18 home game against the Milwaukee Bucks will be staged as 'A Night in Vice City,' with the team name replaced by Vice City. The game at Kaseya Center will use a court built for the occasion, and the Heat will wear redesigned uniforms that have not been revealed. Rockstar Games reposted the announcement. GTA VI launches November 19 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The Heat's announcement came on October 2, and Rockstar Games' official X account shared it. The game tips off at 7:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time on November 18, which is 9:00 a.m. Japan Time on November 19, at Kaseya Center. The uniform design is still under wraps. The team says special projects will roll out at the arena starting with the regular season's opening game, with dedicated programming on November 18. A Vice City apparel collection is already on sale at the Heat's official store.
