The game is played out in four cities: Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York, each of which remain only partially faithful to the actual city layouts. A fifth bonus city, [[Newcastle upon Tyne|Newcastle]] (where Reflections Interactive is based), is unlockable in the PC version through gameplay and in the PlayStation version using a cheat device,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/virtual-toon-guide-video-games-11909625|title=Newcastle in video games – it's not just Fifa we've featured in|last=Meechan|first=Simon|date=21 September 2016|website=Newcastle Chronicle|access-date=18 June 2019}}</ref> but no missions are available and the playable area is small. The game was notable at the time of its original release insofar as the player was able to explore each city as an [[open world]] environment.
