GTA 6 Map: Vice City and the State of Leonida

What is confirmed

Rockstar Games confirmed the Vice City / Leonida setting in the first trailer. Vice City returns as a contemporary open world, and it sits inside the wider state of Leonida, which implies playable territory beyond the city limits.

Map size: what the leaks say

A widely-shared figure claims the map is 3.5x the size of GTA 5’s Los Santos. As of 23 August 2026, that specific multiplier traces to a single anonymous account with no track record and no official corroboration — we rate it Unverified. A broader claim that the map spans the full state of Leonida with multiple distinct areas is Credible, backed by two established outlets.

Every map claim, rated

Rather than repeat rumours as fact, we track each map claim separately with its source and a verdict. See the related verdicts below, and check back after Trailer 3 on 27 August — a map reveal there would move several of these ratings the same day.

How the map compares to GTA 5

Grand Theft Auto V’s Los Santos and Blaine County remain the benchmark every GTA 6 map claim is measured against. Rockstar Games has framed Leonida as a larger, denser world, and the studio’s track record — each mainline GTA world has outsized the last — makes “biggest map yet” a safe expectation. What is not safe is any exact multiplier: those are estimates until Rockstar publishes real dimensions or a to-scale map, which it has not.

When will the full map be revealed?

Rockstar historically holds the full map back until close to launch, often as a physical poster bundled with the game or an official interactive map at release. Expect leaks and partial reveals before then; treat each against our rating system, and see the release date page for the launch timeline.
