GTA 6 is set in the fictional state of Leonida, a modern reimagining of Florida, centered on Vice City. It is the first mainline entry to return to Vice City since 2002, now rebuilt for current-generation hardware. Browse every place in the locations database.
Confirmed regions
Rockstar’s trailers and official material name several areas of Leonida:
- Vice City and districts such as Ocean Beach and Little Cuba
- The Leonida Keys, a tropical southern archipelago reachable by watercraft
- Grassrivers, the wetlands and swamp country
- Port Gellhorn and Ambrosia
- Mount Kalaga National Park in the north, home to hunting and wildlife
Other district and county names circulating online come from leaks and remain unconfirmed until Rockstar shows them officially. Every entry in our locations database is labelled confirmed or rumored.
Leonida is Rockstar’s Florida
Leonida is a fictional state, but it is clearly modeled on Florida, and the recognizable geography is part of why fans navigate it so quickly. Vice City is the Miami analogue on the southeast coast, with beachfront districts such as Ocean Beach and Little Cuba. The Leonida Keys mirror the Florida Keys trailing off the southern tip; Grassrivers stands in for the Everglades wetlands; and Mount Kalaga National Park anchors the wilder, higher ground to the north. Port Gellhorn sits on the Gulf-facing coast. Because the state follows a real coastline, the layout feels familiar the moment you see it.
How big is the map?
Rockstar has not published a square-mileage figure. Community estimates based on trailer footage suggest the playable area is meaningfully larger than GTA 5, but any exact multiplier is an estimate, not an official number. Treat “twice the size” style claims with caution; we track that specific rumor, with our verdict, on the leak tracker. What is clear is that the world combines a dense coastal city with open wetlands, farmland, keys and a national park, giving it more environmental variety than any previous entry in the series.
Getting around
The world spans city, wetlands, keys and coast, and Trailer 2 shows airboats, boats, jet skis and kayaks alongside the usual cars and motorcycles. Water is a first-class part of traversal this time, which fits a state built around beaches, swamps and an archipelago. See the full list of confirmed gameplay features and the vehicle database for what you will drive and pilot across it.
An interactive, zoomable map of Leonida is planned for SixShore. Until then, this page and the locations database track every confirmed place.
