Hit the Courier

Hit the Courier — Print Works Mission Walkthrough

The "Hit the Courier" mission is a critical part of securing the Print Works for Tommy Vercetti in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. This mission involves intercepting a courier carrying important documents, leading to a high-stakes chase and a confrontation. Successfully completing this task is essential for gaining control of the Print Works and advancing Tommy's business empire.

This mission is typically initiated after Tommy has acquired the Print Works business. The objective is to prevent a rival gang from obtaining sensitive information that could harm Tommy's operations. You'll be informed that a courier is en route to deliver these documents, and your task is to intercept them before they reach their destination. The courier's route will be marked on your minimap, usually starting from a specific location and heading towards a desated drop-off point.

Before starting, it's highly recommended to equip yourself with a powerful weapon, such as an assault rifle or a shotgun, and ensure you have a fast vehicle ready. The courier will likely be in a car, and they will be driven by an NPC who is not afraid to speed and evade. Your primary goal is to stop the courier's vehicle. You can do this by ramming them, shooting out their tires, or engaging in a shootout. However, be aware that the courier may have escorts, so be prepared for a potential firefight.

Once you've successfully stopped the courier's vehicle, you'll need to get out and eliminate them to retrieve the documents. Be cautious, as the courier might attempt to flee on foot or even fight back. After securing the documents, you might find yourself facing further opposition, as the rival gang may try to reclaim them. This could lead to a chase or a shootout. If you're being pursued, use your knowledge of Vice City's streets to your advantage, taking sharp turns and using traffic to block your pursuers. The mission concludes when you successfully deliver the documents to the desated location, usually back at the Print Works or to a contact associated with it. Completing "Hit the Courier" solidifies Tommy's control over the Print Works, unlocking its revenue-generating capabilities and further story missions related to his expanding criminal enterprise.
