GTA 6 Map Size and Every Confirmed Location in Leonida

GTA 6 Map Quick Facts

How Big Is the GTA 6 Map?

Nobody outside Rockstar knows, and Rockstar isn't saying. There are no square miles, no square kilometers, no dimensions of any kind on Rockstar's site, and no official world map image either. Everything Rockstar has said about scale is qualitative: it calls Leonida a "massive world" and bills the game as "The biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series yet". That second line describes the series entry, not the world's dimensions, and neither phrase comes with a number attached.

That makes every headline quoting how big the GTA 6 map is as a settled fact wrong, or at least badly labeled. Those numbers come from community mapping projects working off leaked and trailer footage, not from Rockstar. They're genuinely interesting, and we cover them in the speculation section further down, but they belong there, not in a quick-facts box presented as confirmed.

What is confirmed is structure, not size: one state, one major city, six named regions, and a long list of named places. That's the part the rest of this guide walks through.

What Is Leonida?

Leonida is the fictional American state GTA 6 takes place in. Rockstar calls it "the Goodtime State" and "the sunshine state", and its geography runs from a glitzy coastal metropolis through swampland, a faded vacation town, sugar country, and a mountainous national park on the northern border.

One thing worth being precise about: Rockstar never uses the words "Florida" or "Miami" anywhere on its official GTA VI site. Leonida being modeled on Florida, with Vice City as the Miami analogue, is how basically everyone reads it, and the geography Rockstar shows backs that reading up. But it's an interpretation, not a Rockstar statement, so treat "GTA 6 is set in Florida" as shorthand rather than confirmation.

Every Confirmed Region in Leonida

Rockstar's site has a dedicated page for each of six regions, and that set is the complete officially confirmed list. Several of them show up across the GTA 6 trailers if you want to see them in motion.

A few of Rockstar's own lines are too good to paraphrase. Port Gellhorn's new economy is "fueled by malt liquor, painkillers, and truck stop energy drinks". Ambrosia's Allied Crystal sugar refinery "provides the jobs, while the local biker gang provides almost everything else". And in the backwoods around Mount Kalaga, "hillbilly mystics and paranoid radicals live far from the prying eyes of the government". All six are confirmed parts of one open state, though Rockstar hasn't said how access works at launch or whether anything is gated behind progression.

Vice City Neighborhoods and Landmarks

Vice City gets the most detailed treatment on Rockstar's site. Its description name-checks four distinct areas: the pastel art deco hotels and bright white sands of Ocean Beach, the bustling panaderias of Little Cuba, the bootleg brands of the Tisha-Wocka flea market, and VC Port, which Rockstar calls "the cruise ship capital of the world".

One more spot Rockstar actually places is Shore Court, a personal garage that comes with the Vintage Vice City Pack. Rockstar puts it "a stone's throw from the glistening sands of Ocean Beach", which lands it right beside one of Vice City's named neighborhoods, and says it features a weapon locker plus a secure place to deposit stolen goods to be fenced.

Three more familiar names show up in Rockstar's material, each with a different level of certainty attached. Southside Vice City is placed outright: an Ultimate Edition benefit description has you raid the compound of "one of Southside Vice City's loudest and most socially active gangs". The Vercetti Estate gets a looser mention, with Rockstar describing a weapon's "classic Vice City stylings sourced from the Vercetti Estate", which names the Estate and ties it to Vice City styling without stating it sits inside the city. And the Ocean View Hotel appears only in an image caption showing Jason and Lucia standing outside it, with no region stated at all. Longtime fans will recognize the last two from the series' past, but we'd rather report exactly what Rockstar has said than assert placements it hasn't given.

Other Officially Named Places

Here's the part almost no other map roundup gets right: Rockstar has named a handful of places without saying which region they sit in. These are officially confirmed to exist, but unplaced.

• Watson Bay, home of the Paradise Garage

• Gambit Bay, a fishing spot

• Washington Beach

• Shore Drive

• Lake Leonida

• Stockyard, home of Stock 305 and the Electric Fang ink bar

• Leonida Penitentiary

We're deliberately not guessing which region each belongs to. Plenty of pages slot these into regions with confidence Rockstar hasn't provided, and we'd rather update this list on launch day than be confidently wrong before it. The flip side is worth stating too: a place being absent from Rockstar's lists means it hasn't been named yet, not that it isn't in the game.

Rockstar has also named five businesses that are "Only open for business with the Ultimate Edition": Rideout Customs (mod shop), Sara's Unisex Salon (hair salon), Stock 305 (clothing store, "Stockyard's premier destination for elevated streetwear"), Electric Fang Tattoo (tattoo shop, "Stockyard's most iconic ink bar", with designs by the artist collective FAILE), and One-Eyed Willie's (a mod shop in Lake Leonida specializing in off-road modifications). A separate Ultimate Edition benefit is the PTT Youngin$ Illegal Goods Store: you will raid the compound of a Southside Vice City gang and escape with special items and distinct contraband. If any of that affects which version you buy, the editions breakdown lives in our GTA 6 preorder guide.

Explore Leonida on Our GTA 6 Map

Since Rockstar hasn't released a world map, the best way to get a feel for Leonida's shape right now is the fan-made community map we host on our GTA 6 map page, with art by YANIS and the GTA VI Mapping Community.

To be clear about what it is: a speculative, fan-made reconstruction, not an official Rockstar map. It's built from analysis rather than official cartography, so details will shift once the real map is in hand. That said, it's genuinely useful for seeing the coastline, the rough position of the regions, and how the state hangs together. On launch day we'll replace speculation with the real thing.

Community speculation (unconfirmed)

Nothing in this section is confirmed by Rockstar; it's community analysis and unverified reporting, labeled as such.

Size estimates. Community mapping projects put Leonida at roughly two to three times GTA 5's landmass, with published figures clustering around 110 to 150 square kilometers. The "GTA VI - Vice City Mapping Project" started by DuPz0r, and the YANIS / GTA VI Mapping Community (whose map art we host on our own map page), have led this work, with at least one project citing a floor of 125 square kilometers. These figures are measured from the 2022 Rockstar leak plus trailer and screenshot analysis, not from the shipped game, so treat them as informed estimates.

Where the "officially confirmed" headlines come from. In June 2026, a retail product listing surfaced on Amazon Brazil and was reported by VGC. Its map bullet reads, in VGC's machine translation of the Brazilian listing: "LARGER MAP: Explore Vice City, beaches, swamps, small towns, and various regions of Leonida." That's it. No dimensions, no comparison figure. VGC reported the listing as unverified and said it had contacted Rockstar for comment. Any page citing that listing as an official map size confirmation is overreaching.

Unconfirmed place names. Community mapping projects have also labeled areas with names like Hamlet, Yorktown, La Perie, Kelly County, and Gloriana. Several ranking pages list some of these as confirmed regions. They are not: none of them appear anywhere on Rockstar's site. The confirmed set remains the six regions in the table above.

GTA 6 Map FAQ

How big is the GTA 6 map?

Rockstar hasn't said. There's no official size figure and no official world map; everything Rockstar has said about scale is qualitative, calling Leonida a "massive world" and the game "The biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series yet", which describes the series entry rather than the map's dimensions. Community estimates exist (covered in the speculation section above), but they're measured from leaked and trailer footage, not confirmed by Rockstar.

Is the GTA 6 map bigger than GTA 5?

There's no confirmed answer, because Rockstar has published no size for either game's map in comparable terms. Community mapping projects have published their own estimates, which we cover in the speculation section above, but those are fan measurements rather than Rockstar figures. We'll measure it properly once the game is out.

Has Rockstar confirmed the GTA 6 map size?

No. Some headlines trace back to an unverified Amazon Brazil retail listing reported by VGC in June 2026, and even that listing contains no dimensions, just the phrase "LARGER MAP". Others trace to community mapping estimates. Neither is a Rockstar figure.

What regions are in the GTA 6 map?

Six confirmed regions make up Leonida: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park. Each has its own official description on Rockstar's site.

Is GTA 6 set in Florida?

Rockstar never says "Florida" or "Miami" anywhere on its official GTA VI site. The game is set in the fictional state of Leonida, which everyone reads as modeled on Florida, with Vice City as the Miami analogue. The reading fits the geography Rockstar shows, but it's an interpretation, not Rockstar's wording.

Is there an official GTA 6 map?

Not yet. Rockstar has not released a world map image. Until it does, the fan-made community map on our GTA 6 map page is the best visual reference, clearly labeled as speculative.

Can you visit all of Leonida in GTA 6?

The six regions are confirmed parts of one open state, but Rockstar hasn't detailed whether everything is accessible from the start or gated behind progression. We'll confirm how access works once the game launches.
