GTA 6 Map: Frequently Asked Questions

Rockstar says the Leonida map is twice the size of the GTA 5 map and three times the size of Red Dead Redemption 2. Measurements taken from leaked map material put the explorable land closer to 83 km², about 1.7 times the 48 km² of land in GTA 5. Rockstar has never published an official square kilometre figure.

Yes. Every source agrees on that, and it is the largest world Rockstar has built. The disagreement is only about how much bigger: somewhere between 1.7 and 2 times, depending on whether you are measuring land, water or both.

Between 1.7 and 2 times, comparing land to land. Rockstar says twice the size of GTA 5. Community measurement of the leaked GTA 6 map puts the land at about 83 km² against 48 km² of land in GTA 5, which is 1.73 times. The 1.1 times figure that circulates compares GTA 6 land against the GTA 5 total including ocean, so it is not comparing the same thing.

Leonida is not real Florida at Florida’s scale. The real state runs about 720 km from the western panhandle to Miami and no game world is that large, so distances between regions are compressed and the panhandle sits far closer to the peninsula than it does in life. The map on this site keeps each place at the position of its real-world counterpart, warped onto the compact layout the leaked map shows.

Reportedly yes, by roughly double, with the city and its surrounding suburbs at around eleven times Los Santos and its surroundings. Those figures come from reporting rather than from Rockstar directly. What Rockstar has said is that this is the largest and most detailed world the studio has built.

The community effort to reconstruct the map before release. It started with the September 2022 breach, which put roughly ninety development clips online, many with on-screen world coordinates that made the footage measurable. Trailer and screenshot analysis then anchored the game geography to real Miami landmarks. Every fan-made GTA 6 map, including this one, rests on that work.

Yes, and it is the main city. Rockstar confirmed a modern-day Vice City inside the fictional state of Leonida, the first return to the city since the 2002 game.

Rockstar names six: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park. Leaked material adds six counties on top of those, which Rockstar has not confirmed.

Florida, closely enough that you can lay the two side by side. Leonida is a fictional version of the state, named after Ponce de Leon. On the leaked layout it keeps the broad shape: land running south to an island chain off the southern tip, a western arm where the panhandle would be, and a large lake inland. Vice City stands in for Miami, Grassrivers for the Everglades, Port Gellhorn for Panama City, and Ambrosia for the sugar country around Clewiston. Mount Kalaga reaches north into a Georgia that the game calls Gloriana.

A compact Florida, wider and shorter than the real state. Vice City sits on the south-east coast, split by a bay with a barrier island on the ocean side, and wetlands fill the southern interior. The Leonida Keys trail off the bottom, the panhandle runs west along the top toward Port Gellhorn, and Mount Kalaga National Park sits on the northern border. Nobody outside Rockstar has seen the finished map, so this is the layout that the leaked material and the trailers together describe rather than a confirmed picture.

No. Rockstar has not released a map of Leonida, and the game itself is not out until 19 November 2026. What circulated in August 2026 was a leak rather than a release, and Take-Two responded to it with takedown notices. Every GTA 6 map you can look at today, including this one, is reconstructed by fans from trailers, screenshots and leaked material.

Partly. Rockstar has confirmed the six regions of Leonida and a set of named places inside them on its own site, so those are settled. The outline of the state, the county names and most of the smaller settlements come from leaked material and have never been confirmed. That split is exactly why every entry on this map carries an evidence grade instead of being presented as equally certain.

No. Leonida is a fictional version of Florida, named after Ponce de Leon, with the motto The Goodtime State and an alligator on its seal. Vice City stands in for Miami, Grassrivers for the Everglades and Port Gellhorn for Panama City.

A full map image circulated in August 2026 and Take-Two responded with takedown notices. The material reportedly dates from 2023 build data, so it shows an older state of the map, and parts of the circulated file were edited before it spread.

On 19 November 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. The date has slipped twice already, but Rockstar restated it in late August 2026 and Take-Two has tied its full-year revenue guidance to it. No PC release date has been announced.

Not yet. Rockstar has published region descriptions and screenshots but no map of its own, and the physical release ships as a download code rather than a disc, so a printed map in the box is unlikely. Every interactive map available today, including this one, is fan-built.

There is no evidence that you can. Gloriana, the neighbouring state, shows up on licence plates but does not appear on any version of the map. The closest precedent is North Yankton in GTA 5, which was reachable only during specific missions.

Unconfirmed. A 2022 report described plans to add missions and cities regularly, but Rockstar never committed to that publicly and has not shipped single-player story expansion since 2009. Treat post-launch map growth as a rumour, not a plan.
