As we approach GTA 6's release month, Rockstar continues its marketing strategy to promote what will inevitably become the biggest game of the year, and probably the decade.
With the NBA season ongoing, the studio will take the chance to promote the game through a partnership with Miami's home team, the Miami Heat. The team will drop its signature red and black combo to don the pink Vice City color and name for one night.
When Is the GTA 6 x Miami Heat Collaboration Game?
The collaboration will take place on Wednesday, November 18, exactly one day before GTA 6 releases. On that day, the Heat will face off against the Milwaukee Bucks, with the team briefly rebranding as Vice City.
The event starts at 7:00 PM EST, and these are the start times for other time zones:

Where Is the GTA 6 x Miami Heat Collaboration Game?
The Vice City (Miami Heat) vs Milwaukee Bucks game will take place at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida. This is the home stadium for the Heat, but it will be decorated with Vice City logos and imagery.
The stadium's roof already has a new Vice City logo installed, which you can see in the video below:
Aside from that, the official NBA page teased that the stadium's court will feature a special Vice City-themed decoration, including a new hardwood floor and more.
GTA 6 x Miami Heat Activities and Merch
As part of the event, there will be special activities on the night of the game. Attendees will get to enjoy special GTA 6-themed activities inside the stadium, while several activations will be available outside the Kaseya Center for anyone in the area or ticket holders before they go inside.
The official NBA hasn't disclosed what activities we can expect, meaning these will be kept a surprise until game day.
To make this collaboration more authentic, the Miami Heat lineup will wear special kits to rebrand as the Vice City team for the night. The kits and other game-related merch will be available to buy on the official NBA page at a later date.
GTA 6 x Miami Heat Game Tickets
Event tickets are now on sale through Ticketmaster, and the price will depend on the seating position, as always. Prices range from $107 in the back seats to over $1900 for courtside seating.
