GTA 6 Map
GTA 6 is set in Vice City and the state of Leonida, a fictional Florida. This page is a reference, built from the six regions Rockstar has named and present-day Florida geography. It is not an official Rockstar map, and its markers are not game coordinates. Rockstar said its own free printable map of Leonida joins its official site on November 19.
Leonida and the six regions Rockstar has named
All six sit inside the state of Leonida. Where GTA 6 is set covers how Vice City has changed since 2002.
State of Leonida
Leonida is the state GTA 6 takes place in, and it stands in for real-world Florida. Rockstar describes it as the home of Vice City and the land around it, stretching from a glossy beach metropolis out to wetlands, small coastal towns and a chain of tropical islands. Game Informer’s September 2026 cover story reports more than 170 animal species across the state, including alligators, manatees, flamingos and pelicans, and localized weather with tropical storms. Rockstar’s Ultimate Edition copy also places One-Eyed Willie’s Mod Shop in Lake Leonida.
Vice City
Vice City returns as the centerpiece of the map, this time a present-day city rather than the 1980s version players remember. Rockstar calls it the sun and fun capital of America, with neighborhoods that run from the pastel art deco hotels and white sands of Ocean Beach to the panaderías of Little Cuba and the Tisha-Wocka flea market, out to VC Port, the cruise ship capital of the world.
It anchors the map the way Los Santos anchored GTA 5. Several beach and neighborhood areas have been shown in official material, though Rockstar has not published a full neighborhood map yet.
Leonida Keys
The Leonida Keys are a tropical archipelago. Rockstar describes island life there as easy rather than flashy, with deck chairs and loaded bars, and warns that the surrounding waters are among the most beautiful and dangerous in America. Rockstar’s bios put Jason in the Keys, living rent-free at one of Brian Heder’s properties in return for help with local shakedowns, and Brian runs his smuggling operation out of a Keys boat yard.
Grassrivers
Grassrivers is the swamp region, a huge wetland of mangroves and waterways that Rockstar calls the untamable jewel of Leonida’s crown. Rockstar says the gators may be its most famous attraction, with far deadlier predators among the mangroves. Airboats appear in its official screenshots, and An Extended Look shows fan boats in Everglades-style wetlands.
Port Gellhorn
Port Gellhorn is a gritty stretch of coast that was once a popular vacation spot and has since fallen on harder times. Rockstar describes cheap motels, shut-down attractions and empty strip malls, with a new economy fueled by malt liquor, painkillers and truck stop energy drinks.
Ambrosia
Ambrosia sits in the heart of Leonida, where Rockstar says American industry and old school values still reign supreme. The Allied Crystal sugar refinery provides the jobs, while the local biker gang provides almost everything else.
Mount Kalaga
Mount Kalaga National Park is what Rockstar calls a national landmark, on Leonida’s northern border, with hunting, fishing and off-road trails. Rockstar describes hillbilly mystics and paranoid radicals living far from the prying eyes of the government in the surrounding backwoods.
How big is the GTA 6 map?
Game Informer reports Aaron Garbut calling Leonida Rockstar’s biggest map by some degree, about twice the size of GTA 5’s. That is a reported comparison, because Rockstar has not published exact dimensions. For the rest of the comparison, see GTA 5 vs GTA 6.

What is official and what is editorial
| Layer | What it shows | Evidence status |
|---|---|---|
| Setting | Vice City and the fictional state of Leonida | Named by Rockstar Games |
| Region schematic | Six names published on Rockstar’s Only in Leonida pages | Official names, no geographic claims |

| Map markers | Real Florida reference points selected by GTA6 Times | Editorial context, not game coordinates |
The real Florida places behind Leonida
These are resemblances, and the places in GTA 6 are fictional. Rockstar has named no real-world match for any region.
| Region | Resembles | Who says so |
|---|---|---|
| Leonida | Florida | Rockstar’s fictional take on the state, from its beaches to its swamps. Its own copy points to the must-see destinations across the sunshine state. |
| Vice City | Miami | Rockstar’s copy describes art deco hotels on Ocean Beach and a Little Cuba neighborhood, and VGC, citing Game Informer’s preview, says Vice City draws heavily from Miami. |
| Grassrivers | the Everglades | Rockstar describes a primordial wetland of gators and mangroves, and outlets covering An Extended Look call the wetlands Everglades-style. |
| Leonida Keys | the Florida Keys | A tropical archipelago shown with bridges, boats and beach bars, and its name echoes the Florida Keys. |

What are the six GTA 6 regions?
Rockstar has named six regions in the state of Leonida: Vice City, the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park.
Is the GTA 6 map based on a real place?
Leonida is Rockstar’s fictional take on Florida, and Vice City draws on Miami. The markers here show real Florida reference points for context, not confirmed one-to-one game locations.
Is Vice City a real place?
No. Vice City is a fictional city. It resembles Miami, from the art deco hotels of Ocean Beach to its Little Cuba neighborhood, but Rockstar has not named a real-world match.
Can you visit the real Vice City?
You can visit the places it resembles: Miami, the Everglades and the Florida Keys are all real destinations. Vice City and Leonida themselves are fictional.
Is this the official GTA 6 map?
No. The interactive layer uses OpenStreetMap map data, shown in dark colors, with original GTA6 Times annotations. We do not reproduce Rockstar’s in-game map art, and marker positions are not claimed as game coordinates. Rockstar said a free printable map of Leonida and cover art poster join its official site on November 19, with a double-sided physical version following shortly after on the Rockstar Store: $0.99 on its own, or free with any Rockstar Store purchase.
