GTA 6 Map: Leonida's 6 Official Regions Explained

GTA 6 is set in Leonida, Rockstar’s fictional take on Florida, and Rockstar has officially confirmed exactly six regions that make up the state. Each one has its own dedicated page on the studio’s site, under the “Only in Leonida” section, alongside the eight confirmed characters. In broad strokes, the six regions echo different corners of the real state, coastline, wetlands, faded tourist towns, farmland, and backwoods, though Rockstar has never published a formal one-to-one map against real Florida. Here’s what Rockstar has actually said about each region, and what’s still genuinely unconfirmed about the map as a whole.

Vice City: the capital of the state

Vice City is the central hub of Leonida and the game’s main city, described by Rockstar as still the sun-and-fun capital of America even decades removed from its neon-soaked 1980s heyday. The official region page name-checks several distinct neighborhoods inside it: Ocean Beach, with its pastel art deco hotels and white sand; Little Cuba, home to busy bakeries; a flea market called Tisha-Wocka, known for bootleg goods; and VC Port, described as the cruise ship capital of the world. Vice City is where most of the official trailer footage and the Extended Look are set, and where Jason and Lucia spend the bulk of their story.

Leonida Keys: the tropical archipelago

South of Vice City, the Leonida Keys are a chain of islands that Rockstar describes as easygoing rather than flashy, the kind of place where you grab a drink and pull up a deck chair. That relaxed framing comes with a warning attached: the surrounding waters are described as some of the most beautiful, and most dangerous, in the state.

Grassrivers: the wetlands

West of Vice City sits Grassrivers, Leonida’s answer to the Everglades. Rockstar’s description leans into the unknown: alligators are the obvious headline attraction, but the studio explicitly teases far stranger and more dangerous things hiding among the mangroves.

Port Gellhorn: the faded vacation town

In the northwest, Port Gellhorn is a once-popular tourist spot that’s fallen on hard times. Rockstar’s own copy is blunt about it: cheap motels, shuttered attractions, and empty strip malls define the area now, propped up by a rougher, cheaper economy. It’s explicitly framed as dirt bike territory.

Ambrosia: industry and old values

Ambrosia sits in the north-central part of the state, built around traditional American industry. Rockstar names the Allied Crystal sugar refinery specifically as the region’s main employer, with a local biker gang filling in most of the rest of the local economy.

Mount Kalaga: the northern backwoods

Mount Kalaga is the official name Rockstar uses for this region on its site, up near the state’s northern border. It’s described as a national landmark offering hunting, fishing, and off-road trails, with a backwoods population the studio characterizes as a mix of self-styled mystics and radicals living well outside government reach. You may see the fuller phrase “Mount Kalaga National Park” used elsewhere, but the label Rockstar actually uses for the region itself is simply Mount Kalaga.

Other named locations inside these regions

Beyond the six headline regions, Rockstar’s official copy for the game and its Ultimate Edition names several more specific spots worth knowing. These aren’t separate official regions, they’re confirmed neighborhoods and landmarks that sit somewhere inside the six regions above:

• Watson Bay, home to the Paradise Garage, a personal garage with a weapon locker and a place to fence stolen goods.
• Washington Beach, a dock location named in connection with a customized boat.
• Gambit Bay, described as a prime fishing spot.
• Shore Drive and its nearby Shore Court garage, close to Ocean Beach.
• Stockyard, home to more than one exclusive shop mentioned in the Ultimate Edition content.
• Lake Leonida, site of an off-road specialist mod shop.
• Southside Vice City, described as home to an active local gang.
• Vercetti Estate, a direct nod to Vice City’s history as a location name.

How big is the GTA 6 map?

Here’s what’s genuinely confirmed: six regions, described above, and nothing else. Rockstar has not published an official map size in square miles or square kilometers, and it has not put out any official comparison to the maps of GTA 5, Red Dead Redemption 2, or any other previous title. You may come across specific multiples or figures elsewhere online, sometimes attributed loosely to Rockstar; none of them appear on rockstargames.com or the official store listing, so treat any number you see as unconfirmed until Rockstar itself publishes one. The safest way to judge scale for now is simply the range of the six regions above: a dense coastal city, an island chain, wetlands, a struggling tourist town, an industrial farm belt, and mountain backwoods, which already points to a state built for a lot of variety in terrain and pacing.

Why the region breakdown matters

Rockstar structuring its own site around exactly six named regions is itself a signal: it’s the traversable shape of the state the studio wants players to know ahead of launch, distinct from smaller unnamed neighborhoods and landmarks that will surely exist inside them. Expect the map to reveal more granular detail once the game is out on November 19, 2026, but for now, these six names are the confirmed skeleton of Leonida.

See it for yourself

We’ve built an interactive map of Leonida using only the regions and locations Rockstar has officially confirmed, so you can explore the six-region layout for yourself rather than relying on someone else’s description of it. Check out the GTA 6 interactive map, meet the people who populate these places in our characters guide, and see them in motion in the official trailers and videos.
