Quick answer
What is the GTA 6 map?
GTA 6 takes place across the state of Leonida, Rockstar's version of Florida. Its six named regions are Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga. Rockstar hasn't published a full map or a size, so any square mile figure is still an estimate.
Leonida is Florida with the names changed, and Rockstar calls it the Goodtime State. Its biggest city is a modern Vice City, but Rockstar's GTA VI site names five more regions around it, from island bars to a mountain park.
So far Rockstar has not shown the in game map screen. Everything below comes from its own region pages and trailers.
What are the GTA 6 map regions?
| Region | What Rockstar shows | Widely read as |
|---|---|---|
| Vice City | Neon city, beaches, nightlife | Miami |

| Grassrivers | Wetlands, airboats, alligators | The Everglades |
| Port Gellhorn | Run down coastal town | Florida Panhandle |
| Ambrosia | Industrial heartland, sugar refining | Central rural Florida |
| Mount Kalaga | National park, forests and trails | North Florida wilderness |
The real world matches are fan and press readings of Rockstar's art. Rockstar hasn't confirmed them.
Which region matters most for the story?
Vice City and the Keys, from what Rockstar has shown. Jason works for drug runners in the Leonida Keys, and Vice City is where most of the supporting cast lives, as our characters guide explains.
The quieter regions have a voice too. Rockstar says Back Country Radio plays to the Grassrivers and Port Gellhorn, according to IGN. Our radio guide lists every station.
How big is the GTA 6 map?
Rockstar hasn't said. Take Two's preorder announcement calls GTA 6 the "biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet", which is a claim about the game, not a measurement.
Treat any square mile number as a fan estimate until launch on 19 November 2026.
Is there a fan made GTA 6 map?
Yes. The GTA VI mapping community has rebuilt Leonida from trailer frames and screenshots, and its work is credited on the GTADB credits page. Our mapping project report explains who made it and how far to trust it.
You can also explore the regions on our own Leonida map tool.
