The State of Leonida - how big the map is, which regions Rockstar has confirmed, and where the size figures actually come from.
South to north
Rockstar has named six regions and published art for each. It has not published a map; the postcards are Rockstar's own, and each page carries what Rockstar has said about the place.
Everything in excess
We're a long way from the '80s, but Vice City is still the sun and fun capital of America.
Tropical archipelago
A tropical archipelago where life is easy, and the water beside it is not.
The wetlands
The untamable jewel of Leonida's crown - gators, mangroves, and worse.
The forgotten coast
A vacation town the tourists left, with a new economy that moved in behind them.
The sugar town
A sugar company town where industry, old-school values and a biker gang share the streets.
The northern border
Wilderness on the northern border - hunting, fishing, and people who do not want to be found.
Map
Rockstar has named and published pages for six regions of Leonida: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park. Rockstar has not said whether that is the whole state, and has published no map.
The State of Leonida is about twice the size of GTA 5's map and three times Red Dead Redemption 2's. Vice City alone is roughly double Los Santos, and Vice City with its surrounding suburbs is around eleven times Los Santos and its surrounds. Rockstar has published no exact area.
Rockstar has never used the word Florida. Leonida is its own invention: the sunshine state, with Vice City as the sun and fun capital of America, an island chain called the Leonida Keys and a wetland called Grassrivers. The Florida reading is the same one the series has always invited, as Los Santos stands for Los Angeles and Liberty City for New York, but it is a reading, not something Rockstar has said.
No. Rockstar has published no map image and no dimensions in square miles or kilometres. The maps in circulation are community reconstructions from trailer and gameplay footage.
GTA 6 is set in the state of Leonida, a fictional US state, with modern day Vice City at its centre. Rockstar describes it as "the sprawling state of Leonida and a return to modern day Vice City", and calls Leonida the sunshine state.
