Quick answer — Where does GTA 6 take place?

GTA 6 is set in the fictional state of Leonida, inspired by Florida. The centerpiece is a modern reimagining of Vice City. Additional locations named in official Rockstar material include the Leonida Keys, Port Gellhorn, Grassrivers, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park. Rockstar has not published an official map size or full district list.

What Is Leonida in GTA 6?

Leonida is the fictional US state that GTA 6 takes place in. Rockstar Games has confirmed Leonida as the game's setting, with Vice City as its main urban center. Leonida draws visual and geographic inspiration from Florida — coastal cities, tropical islands, wetlands and national parks all appear in official material.

Rockstar has not described Leonida as an exact one-to-one recreation of Florida. Treat it as a fictional Florida-inspired state rather than a real-world map.

Rockstar has not officially published a full Vice City district list, exact map boundaries, or a comprehensive list of accessible interiors for GTA 6. Anything beyond the regions above should be treated as unconfirmed.

How Big Is the GTA 6 Map?

Rockstar Games has not published an official map size for GTA 6. Any specific square-mile or square-kilometer figures circulating online come from leaks or fan reconstructions and should not be treated as confirmed.

What we can say from official material: GTA 6 covers multiple distinct environments across Leonida — a major coastal city, tropical islands, wetlands, small-town / port settings and a national park. That spread of environments demonstrates a substantial open world, but it is not a substitute for an official total map size.
