GTA 6 Map Size: How Big Is Leonida Compared to Los Santos?
Quick Answers
How big is the GTA 6 map?
Rockstar hasn't published official numbers. Leaks and trailer analysis suggest Leonida covers Vice City plus a state-sized rural area — very likely bigger than GTA 5's map.
Is the GTA 6 map bigger than GTA 5?
Almost certainly — leaked build data and the trailer's geography (city + county + keys) point to a map larger than San Andreas in GTA 5.
What areas are in the GTA 6 map?
Confirmed or strongly reported: Vice City (Beach, Downtown, Port), Leonida County swamplands, Port Gellhorn, Grassrivers, and Florida Keys-style islands.
What the Trailer Confirms
Trailer 1 opens with a sweeping aerial view of Vice City — beachfront, downtown skyline, and port — then cuts across swamps and bridges. The geography matches the state-of-Florida-inspired setting: a coastal metropolis surrounded by a much larger rural state.
Leak-Based Estimates
Early development-leak footage showed six interior districts and an outdoor world built as one continuous grid. Community analysis of leaked coordinate data estimated a footprint between 2 and 3 times the size of GTA 5's map, though the playable density will matter as much as raw size.
Map Areas Reported So Far
- Vice City — Beach, Downtown, Port, Little Havana-inspired district.
- Leonida County — Everglades-style wetlands, rural towns, trailer parks.
- Port Gellhorn — industrial harbor tied to smuggling missions.
- Grassrivers — canal-lined suburban sprawl.
- Key islands — Florida Keys-inspired bridge chain.
Why Size Matters Less Than You Think
Rockstar builds verticality and interior space as much as landmass. RDR2's map is smaller than GTA 5's but feels denser — expect Leonida to layer interiors, waterways, and airspace over its land grid.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the GTA 6 map include the whole of Florida?
No — only the fictional state of Leonida, a Florida-inspired region centered on Vice City with surrounding counties.
Is Vice City the whole GTA 6 map?
No. Vice City is the urban core; the map also includes rural counties, ports, and islands.
Does GTA 6 have a bigger map than RDR2?
Likely yes — early analysis puts Leonida at roughly 2-3x GTA 5, which is already larger than RDR2's New Hanover-centric world.
