Leonida, the GTA VI map: Vice City and the five other regions

Rockstar has presented six regions for the state of Leonida, from the dense city of Vice City to the swamps of Grassrivers. Here is what each one shows, what you’ll do there according to the videos, and how the site’s interactive map follows you during the game, with more than three thousand places spotted.

Only in Leonida

The six regions presented by Rockstar

On May 6, 2025, with Trailer 2, Rockstar put one page per region online. Here is what they say, and what the site made of them.

Each region page on the site takes up Rockstar’s official presentation, the places named in its texts (Ocean Beach, Little Cuba, Tisha-Wocka and VC Port for Vice City, for example), the characters you meet there and the screenshots where the region appears. Nothing is made up: when a place comes from an identification by players, the page says so with its status. The Places page gathers the six regions.

The city

Vice City, district by district

Rockstar makes it the densest and liveliest area of Leonida. The official screenshots and videos made it possible to recognize its districts.

The site’s neighborhood pages, like Ocean Beach, Little Cuba, Downtown or Southside, say where each name comes from: an official Rockstar text, a sign readable in a screenshot, or an identification by players. The full list is in the index of districts and counties.

For the atmosphere, the journalists who saw the August 2026 demo speak of a city whose size surprises, and of lived-in safehouses rather than mere save points. And Bloomberg’s October 14 investigation recalls the scale of the project: about eight years of work and 4,711 people in twelve offices in August 2026.

During the game

Leonidakit’s interactive map

A map to open on your phone or on a second screen while you play: more than three thousand places spotted, each with its level of certainty.

The site’s map relies on the surveys of the gtadb.org community, published under a CC BY 4.0 license and credited, laid over a base map drawn for the site. Each place carries a status: named by Rockstar, legible on a screenshot, or identified by players. A search, filters by family and a marker per region take you to the right spot in two clicks, and each place has its own page, with its photos when they exist.

What the map deliberately doesn’t do: show a name or an image that came from the leaks. gtadb.org partly relies on them: the markers it only knows from an unofficial capture keep their position, with no in-game name or photo, and stay marked “community reconstruction” until the game lets us check them. To understand how a place is verified, the What’s confirmed page explains the method.

Three uses

Three ways to use the map while playing

  1. Spot a store before walking in

    The businesses shown by Rockstar, such as Rideout Customs, Electric Fang Tattoo or Stock 305, have their page and their place on the map. You know where they are before you go.

  2. Check off what you’ve seen

    Every place on the map can be marked as visited. Your progress stays in your browser, with no account, and shows up in your trackers, in the site’s six languages.

  3. Plan a trip between two regions

    From the Keys to Mount Kalaga, the map shows the six regions at once: handy for a mission that crosses the state, or to choose where to hunt and where to fish. The Hunting and Fishing pages point to the right spots.

And if you want to practice before release, the Guess the Location game shows you an official screenshot and asks you to place it: a way to memorize the map without noticing.

Questions

Questions people ask about the map

How many regions does the GTA VI map have?
Six, presented by Rockstar on May 6, 2025: Vice City, the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga National Park. Each one has its page on Places.
Is the GTA VI map official?
Rockstar has not published the game’s full map. Leonidakit’s map is reconstructed from the official images and the surveys of the gtadb.org community, credited, with a status per place. No name and no image comes from the leaks: the markers gtadb.org only knows from an unofficial capture stay “community reconstruction”, with no in-game name.
Is Vice City the only city?
It is Leonida’s big city, the densest area according to Rockstar. Port Gellhorn is a former vacation destination, Ambrosia a farming and industrial area, and the Keys an archipelago of small towns.
Can you use the map on your phone during the game?
Yes: it moves with a finger, with a lighter background during the gesture, and Companion mode keeps it available even offline once opened.
