The World of Leonida

Every GTA game has been defined by its city. Vice City had neon-soaked 80s Miami. San Andreas had the sprawl of Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas. GTA 4 had Liberty City's gritty realism. GTA 6 is different — it is not just a city. It is an entire state.

The state of Leonida is Rockstar's most ambitious world yet. Inspired by Florida, it captures the full range of the state's geography: the glittering oceanfront towers of Vice City, the quiet islands of the Keys connected by bridges, the murky swamplands of Grassrivers teeming with wildlife, and the working-class industrial sprawl of Port Gellhorn's docks.

A Living, Breathing World

What sets GTA 6's map apart is not just its size — it is how it behaves. Trailer footage confirmed dynamic flooding that reshapes roads and neighborhoods. The day/night cycle transforms Vice City from a sun-baked beach city into a neon-lit nightlife capital. Weather systems roll in from the ocean, affecting gameplay and NPC behavior in real time. Rockstar has built a world that feels genuinely alive in ways no GTA game has before.

GTA 6 MAP FAQ

Based on trailer analysis and leaked development materials, the GTA 6 map — the state of Leonida — is estimated to be approximately 3 times the size of GTA 5's Los Santos. It includes Vice City, a Florida Keys equivalent, rural Grassrivers, and the coastal Port Gellhorn.

Yes. Rockstar confirmed Vice City in Trailer 1 (December 2023). Vice City is a fictional version of Miami and is one of the main urban areas in the state of Leonida.

Leonida is the fictional US state where GTA 6 is set. It is inspired by Florida and includes multiple regions: Vice City (Miami), the Keys (Florida Keys), Grassrivers (Everglades-style wetlands), and Port Gellhorn (a port city).

Underwater exploration has not been officially confirmed, but the Florida-inspired setting and advanced water physics shown in trailers strongly suggest it. GTA 5 had underwater areas and GTA 6 is expected to expand on this.

Red Dead Redemption 2's map is approximately 29 square miles. GTA 6's Leonida is expected to be significantly larger based on trailer analysis, potentially 2-3 times larger than RDR2's world.
