GTA 6 Map: Leonida’s Six Official Regions (No Fake km²)

Grand Theft Auto VI is set in the state of Leonida, with Vice City as the urban centre — “the darkest side of the sunniest place in America,” in Rockstar’s own line. The publisher has named six regions: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park. Lake Leonida is a named body of water. Rockstar has not published a map size in km². Press reports a playable area about 3× Red Dead Redemption 2; Rob Nelson called it “very big.” Anything else on a fan reconstruction — extra cities, county grids, airport codes — belongs in the rumored column until Rockstar prints it.

Status labels: Confirmed · Press-reported · Unconfirmed / Rumored.

The only six (official)

Rockstar’s screenshot albums and postcards treat these as the tourable destinations. Six named regions — not seven.

Region	What is actually on the record	Status
Vice City	Urban centre. Official story copy: neon, excess, conspiracy spanning the state. Screenshot and postcard sets are labelled Vice City	Confirmed
Leonida Keys	Named island-chain region. Official Jason bio: after the Army he “found himself in the Keys” working for local drug runners. Brian Heder is written as a Keys smuggler	Confirmed
Grassrivers	Named region; official screenshot set and postcard. Trailer / marketing imagery is wetland, mangrove, gator country	Confirmed as a region; biome detail Press-reported from official images
Port Gellhorn	Named coastal town / region; official screenshots and postcard	Confirmed
Ambrosia	Named inland town / region; official screenshots and postcard	Confirmed
Mount Kalaga National Park	Named northern-wilderness region; official screenshots and postcard. Ultimate copy puts the ’67 Vapid Dominator Buggy in “the backwoods of Mount Kalaga and beyond”	Confirmed
Lake Leonida	Named water. Ultimate shop One-Eyed Willie’s is “Lake Leonida’s storied mod shop”	Confirmed

Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos cover the whole state. Lucia’s bio includes Leonida Penitentiary. Named supporting cast (Cal Hampton, Boobie Ike, Dre’Quan Priest, Real Dimez, Raul Bautista, Brian Heder) are characters, not extra regions.

Size: “very big,” not a number

Do not quote a km². Rockstar has not issued one.

What exists:

• Press-reported: coverage of the August 2026 HQ / Extended Look wave repeated a comparison that the map is on the order of three times Red Dead Redemption 2’s playable area (some of the same reports also say roughly 2× GTA 5, with Vice City itself talked about as larger than Los Santos). Those figures come from preview-week conversation, not a Rockstar spec sheet. Label: Press-reported.
• Press-reported, named: IGN’s HQ list, item 16: Nelson described the map as “very big”, with no definitive size given. Each district is populated with buildings and people styled to the local culture.
• Confirmed as marketing language: Take-Two / Rockstar: “the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet.” That is an adjective, not an area.

Do not convert “3× RDR2” into km². IGN: the pause map is a satellite view. Still not a scale bar.

Region-by-region, without invented POIs

Vice City — urban centre

Confirmed. Neon core. Named places from store copy:

Place	Why it is on this list	Status
Shore Drive	Vintage Stanier copy; ’95 Cheetah is an “ode to Shore Drive”	Confirmed
Ocean Beach	Shore Court garage sits “alongside Ocean Beach”	Confirmed
Shore Court	Vintage garage; weapon locker + fence drop	Confirmed
Washington Beach	Shitzu Squalo docked here (Ultimate)	Confirmed
Stockyard	Stock 305 and Electric Fang Tattoo are written as Stockyard destinations	Confirmed (district-level, Ultimate shops)
Southside Vice City	PTT YOUNGIN$ compound copy	Confirmed (Ultimate activity)
Vercetti Estate	Morgan revolvers “sourced from the Vercetti Estate”	Confirmed as a named source in copy; not a tourable claim beyond that

Wanted: three stars and up are brutal in-city. Money: damage on delivery costs you at the fence.

Leonida Keys — Jason’s documented turf

Confirmed. Jason’s bio: Army, Keys, local drug runners. Brian Heder (boat yard, Lori) lets Jason live rent-free; Cal Hampton is in that orbit. Jason’s Safehouse is named in Ultimate vehicle copy — not a street address.

Grassrivers — wetlands with a proper name

Confirmed via official screenshots/postcard. Imagery: mangroves, airboats, gators. Fan labels like Thrillbilly Mud Club sit in the rumored column.

Port Gellhorn — the other coast

Confirmed screenshot set. Trailer-associated shop names sit in Rumored.

Ambrosia — inland, named, not sized

Confirmed. The Allied Crystal sugar refinery is named on Rockstar’s Ambrosia page (rockstargames.com/VI/ambrosia): “The Allied Crystal sugar refinery provides the jobs, while the local biker gang provides almost everything else.” Confirmed.

Mount Kalaga National Park — the north end

Confirmed (National Park on screenshot titles). Ultimate’s Dominator Buggy is written for this backwoods.

Lake Leonida

Confirmed. One-Eyed Willie’s (Ultimate) sits on it. Compass placement vs Ambrosia/Kalaga is Unconfirmed.

Confirmed vs rumored POIs

Left: official. Right: reconstructions. Right column is not a to-do list.

Confirmed (official name or store copy)	Rumored / reconstructed (Unconfirmed)
Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, Mount Kalaga National Park	Extra “cities” beyond those six
Lake Leonida	Fan-measured borders of the lake
Shore Drive, Ocean Beach, Shore Court	“Ocean Drive” as a separate official street (easy to mix with Shore Drive)
Washington Beach; Gambit Bay (Squalo copy)	Full beach-name list from leak maps
Watson Bay, Paradise Garage	Unofficial marina catalogues
Stockyard (as the home of Stock 305 / Electric Fang)	Tequesta, La Perle, and other district names from fan maps
Southside Vice City (PTT YOUNGIN$)	Gang-territory overlays
Vercetti Estate (as a weapons-copy source)	Tourable Mansion interiors as a guaranteed POI
Jason’s Safehouse (named in Ultimate vehicle copy)	Exact Keys address
Leonida Penitentiary (Lucia bio)	Full prison-break mission assumptions
—	Vice City International / VCI Airport as an official label
—	Gellhorn International Raceway, Bocamar Bridge, Crossroad Park Minimall
—	Uncle Jack’s Liquor, Port Gellhorn Pawn & Gun (trailer-associated in press; names not on Rockstar’s region list)
Allied Crystal sugar refinery (Rockstar Ambrosia)	—
—	Thrillbilly Mud Club
—	County layer: Vice-Dale, Leonard, Kelly, Ambrosia-as-county, Mariana, Lummox, etc.
—	Full neighbourhood list for Vice City

County names are press-reported from props — not a seventh biome.

How the map plays (preview, not a tourist brochure)

Press-reported (IGN HQ): styled districts; not every event is a map icon; Ryde Me taxi fast travel; activities in passing (pool, gym, scuba, kayak — not pinned to a region). Money and wanted change with city density vs Kalaga dirt. Instant switch together, delayed apart. Ultimate does not add a seventh region.

Ships 19 November 2026 on PS5 and Xbox; pre-load 12 November, 00:00 GMT in the UK. No disc. No PC date. Release date.
