The GTA 6 Map: All 6 Leonida Regions Explained

Updated July 12, 2026 · Confirmed regions and sizes, with community estimates labeled as estimates.

GTA 6 doesn't just give you a city. It gives you a whole state: Leonida, Rockstar's take on Florida, built around a modern-day Vice City. Here's every confirmed region and an honest answer to the question everyone asks: how big is it really?

How big is the GTA 6 map?

Rockstar's own wording: the world is roughly twice the size of GTA 5's map, with more than 700 enterable interiors. Community analysis of trailer footage puts Leonida at roughly 118 to 132 square miles, about 2.4 to 2.7 times GTA 5. Treat the exact number as an estimate until launch; the "about 2x, way denser" part is official.

The bigger deal might be density. GTA 5 shipped with a few dozen enterable buildings. Seven hundred plus interiors changes what an open world feels like: more places to rob, hide, explore, and live in.

The six regions

These names come straight from Rockstar's own media kit, which includes an official postcard for each region.

RegionReal-world vibeWhat we know
Vice CityMiamiThe neon heart of the map. Beaches, high-rises, nightlife, and the core of the story.
Leonida KeysFlorida KeysIsland chain in the south. Boats, smuggling country, where Jason ran with drug runners.

Port GellhornGulf-coast port townIndustrial coast, working docks, a rougher side of the state.

Why this map design matters

GTA 5's desert and mountains mostly funneled you back to Los Santos. Leonida's regions each look like destinations: distinct economies, distinct wildlife, distinct trouble. For players it means the "what do I do next" question will have six different answers depending on where you're standing. That's exactly the problem this site exists to solve when the game lands.

Rumor watch (not confirmed): unverified claims about map expansions after launch and additional islands. Nothing official. The six regions above are what Rockstar has shown.
