GTA 6 map: the state of Leonida, its six regions and Vice City neighborhoods

Rockstar hasn’t published an official map of Leonida, the Florida-inspired state where GTA 6 takes place. What it has published is a description of each region on the game’s website, plus names of neighborhoods and places in its edition texts.

Six regions

• Vice City: the main city, GTA 6’s version of Miami
• Leonida Keys: a tropical archipelago in the south, where the game starts
• Grassrivers: swamps full of alligators, the game’s Everglades
• Port Gellhorn: a faded vacation town of cheap motels and empty strip malls
• Ambrosia: an industrial heartland with a sugar refinery and a biker gang
• Mount Kalaga National Park: forests and trails on the northern border

Neighborhoods and places

• Ocean Beach, Little Cuba, the Tisha-Wocka flea market and VC Port: named in Rockstar’s description of Vice City
• Southside: a Vice City neighborhood, home of the PTT YOUNGIN$ gang
• Stockyard, Shore Drive and Washington Beach: named in the edition texts, not yet placed on a map
• Watson Bay, Gambit Bay and Lake Leonida: a garage, a fishing spot and a mod shop, region unknown

How big is the map?

Rockstar told The New York Times that Leonida is three times the playable area of Red Dead Redemption 2 (as reported by GameSpot). Rob Nelson of Rockstar North told Flow Games and TroisCouleurs that Vice City alone is about twice the size of Los Santos, and the towns around it about eleven times larger than their equivalents in GTA 5.

Where the game starts

Rob Nelson told Famitsu that the game begins in the Leonida Keys, where Jason has his first house. Parts of the map you haven’t visited stay hidden until you get there.

An interactive map

Once the game is out, we’ll open an interactive map of Leonida with markers, filters and search, built from what’s actually in the game.
