Complete Leonida / Vice City Map Analysis
Leonida is the fictional U.S. state where GTA VI takes place. It is Rockstar's largest and most diverse open world yet, inspired primarily by the state of Florida. Rather than focusing only on Vice City, GTA VI spans multiple cities, coastal areas, swamps, farmland, and mountains.
🏙️ 1. Vice City (Miami-inspired)
This is the heart of GTA VI and the largest metropolitan area in Leonida.
Confirmed districts and landmarks
- Ocean Beach
- Little Cuba
- Tisha-Wocka
- Vice City Port
- Financial district
- Luxury waterfront neighborhoods
- Nightclubs
- High-rise downtown
- Cruise terminals
Expected gameplay
- Street racing
- Nightlife
- Luxury apartments
- Beaches
- Police pursuits
- Vehicle customization shops
- Business districts
Compared with the 2002 version, Vice City is significantly larger and reflects a modern-day Miami rather than the 1980s setting.

Overall analysis
Leonida appears to be the most geographically diverse GTA setting to date. Instead of centering the experience on a single city, Rockstar has built a full state with six major regions that support very different gameplay styles—from high-speed urban crime in Vice City to boating in the Leonida Keys, wildlife exploration in Grassrivers, industrial missions in Ambrosia, and off-road adventures around Mount Kalaga. While fans estimate the playable world is substantially larger than previous Rockstar maps, the company has not officially published the map size or total playable area, so those comparisons remain estimates rather than confirmed facts.
