GTA 6 Vice City Map: Regions, Landmarks and Activities

Updated 10 November 2026 · Standard formula, shown below

GTA 6 returns to Vice City in the fictional state of Leonida, but its map is not just a remake of the city from earlier games: Rockstar has revealed a broader setting with urban districts, coastal communities, wetlands and smaller settlements. The confirmed picture is a large, varied open world; exact boundaries, travel times, activity lists and many individual landmarks remain unknown until Rockstar releases more detail or the game is available.

What is confirmed about the map

Grand Theft Auto VI is set in Leonida, a fictional state inspired by Florida, and features Vice City. Rockstar’s official trailers and game materials have also named several other places, including the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park. These names establish that the setting extends well beyond a single dense city.

The game’s official promotional material describes Leonida as a broad region, but does not provide a complete, playable map with precise borders or a confirmed scale. Trailer scenes can show places and scenery without establishing how far apart they are, whether every shot depicts an explorable location, or how the final map is divided. Treat detailed fan maps and estimates as speculation unless Rockstar confirms them.

Vice City and its urban districts

Vice City is the best-known part of the setting and is presented as a modern coastal metropolis. The trailers show a mix of high-rise buildings, busy roads, waterways, beaches and dense neighborhoods. That combination suggests a city designed around both driving and waterfront scenery, but Rockstar has not published a definitive list of districts or confirmed the names and borders of particular neighborhoods.

It is reasonable to expect the city to offer contrasting environments: commercial streets and towers, residential blocks, entertainment areas, and stretches of coast. Those are descriptions of what the footage depicts, not guarantees about mission hubs or gameplay systems. The original Vice City in 2002 and Vice City in GTA: Vice City Stories are useful historical comparisons, but GTA 6’s city is a new setting rather than a confirmed one-to-one recreation of either game’s map.

Leonida’s regions beyond the city

Rockstar’s named locations point to different landscapes and kinds of communities across Leonida. Their exact layout and gameplay roles have not all been explained, so the safest way to understand them is to separate confirmed names from reasonable expectations:

Leonida Keys: An island and coastal region shown in official material. Its scenery supports an expectation of waterfront travel and small communities, but no complete route or activity list has been confirmed.
Grassrivers: A wetland region, suggesting a sharp contrast with the built-up city. The name is official; specific airboat routes, wildlife interactions or missions are not yet confirmed.
Port Gellhorn: A named settlement featured in promotional material. Its exact size, economy and position relative to Vice City remain unclear.
Ambrosia: Another confirmed location in Leonida. The footage and official descriptions establish its presence, but not a full account of its districts or story role.
Mount Kalaga National Park: A named natural area that indicates the setting includes more than flat coastal city scenery. The park’s precise boundaries and available outdoor activities have not been detailed.

Together, these places imply a state with urban, rural, wetland, island and park environments. They do not, by themselves, confirm that every region will have the same level of detail or that every location can be visited freely.

Landmarks and scenery to look for

Official footage highlights recognizable types of scenery rather than providing a complete landmark catalogue: a bright waterfront skyline, beaches, bridges and roads over water, wetlands, and open landscapes. These visual contrasts help explain why Leonida is more than a city map. A route from a dense urban area to a coastal island or natural region could offer a change in scenery and road conditions, although the exact routes and travel options are unconfirmed.

Real Florida provides context for the game’s visual inspirations: coastal development, subtropical vegetation, wetlands and barrier islands are features of the region. Leonida is fictional, however, and should not be read as a literal map of Florida. Individual buildings, roads and places shown in trailers may be fictionalized, combined or altered for the game.

Activities: confirmed footage versus expectations

Trailers show characters in a range of settings and situations, including driving, nightlife and outdoor scenes. That is evidence of the game’s tone and environments, not a complete list of playable side activities. Rockstar has not confirmed every activity players may see in trailers, nor explained how each one works.

The setting makes some broad categories plausible: driving through city streets, visiting coastal areas, and exploring natural landscapes. But claims about specific sports, businesses, wildlife systems, vehicles, interiors, property management or mission types should be treated as unverified until there is an official feature description or direct gameplay demonstration. A pictured activity may be a story scene, a background detail or an interactive mechanic; a trailer alone cannot always tell which.

For readers tracking announcements, the most useful distinction is between a named region, a visible scene and a confirmed gameplay feature. The first two help build a picture of the world; only the third establishes what players can actually do.

How the map compares with earlier Vice City

GTA: Vice City and Vice City Stories offered compact maps built around earlier eras and hardware. GTA 6 presents a contemporary version of Vice City within a much wider Leonida setting. The comparison is therefore about the place and its cultural identity, not a promise that old streets, islands or districts will return unchanged.

It is also premature to claim that GTA 6 has a particular map size or is larger by a precise percentage than another game. Rockstar has not supplied an official scale that allows a reliable comparison. A larger-feeling world can also come from varied terrain, activity density and travel systems, not just the number of square miles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Vice City the whole GTA 6 map?
No. Vice City is part of Leonida. Rockstar has also named regions and settlements outside the city, including the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park.

Is the GTA 6 map based on Florida?
Leonida is a fictional setting inspired by Florida. The coastal, wetland and subtropical scenery draws on recognizable regional features, but the game world is not a confirmed, exact Florida map.

Are GTA 6 map regions and boundaries confirmed?
Some place names are official, but a complete map with exact borders, distances and road connections has not been released. Fan-made layouts are estimates, not authoritative maps.

What activities can players do across the map?
Official footage shows varied environments and situations, but Rockstar has not yet confirmed a complete list of activities or explained every apparent feature. Specific claims should be checked against official announcements.

Will the old Vice City map return?
GTA 6 returns to the Vice City setting, but Rockstar has not said that the older games’ maps are reproduced street for street. The new game depicts a modern Vice City within a larger fictional state.
