Phil

Phil runs Phil's Ammu-Nation in Vice City — the one-stop shop for all of Leonida's armed citizens.

Trailer 2 Debut

His in-store commercial, featured prominently in Trailer 2, shows him gleefully firing a box-fed LMG from the roof of his shop, promising the best prices on firearms in all of Leonida. It's exactly the kind of unhinged Rockstar satire fans expect — and it signals the return of Ammu-Nation to the franchise.

Phil Cassidy Connection

Longtime GTA fans immediately recognised him as a reimagined, younger version of Phil Cassidy — the one-armed arms dealer from GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas. This version has both arms and a noticeably younger face, so it's unclear whether Rockstar is retconning the character, telling a prequel story, or introducing a spiritual successor.
