GTA 6 Locations: Every Confirmed Region in Leonida

Published 2026-07-11

The short answer: Rockstar has confirmed exactly one thing about the shape of GTA 6’s world, and it is bigger than most guides admit yet smaller than they pretend. The confirmed part: GTA 6 is set in the state of Leonida, and Rockstar’s official site names six regions inside it, Vice City, the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park. That is the whole official skeleton. Every neighborhood name, town, island, and street you see labeled “confirmed” elsewhere is a step less certain than that, read off a road sign in a trailer or mapped onto real Florida by fans. This guide sorts all of it, region by region, and tells you which tier each location sits in.

Quick labels used below:

• ✅ Confirmed by Rockstar (official site region pages, trailers, or the June 24, 2026 info drop).
• 🔬 Shown or inferred: visible in official footage, but the exact name or map placement is a fan read, not Rockstar’s own label.
• 🟠 Rumor or leak, unverified.

This piece is part of our running Everything We Know hub. For how big all this land actually is, see the GTA 6 map size guide; for where the two leads begin the story, see Who Are Jason and Lucia.

How many regions has Rockstar actually confirmed?

✅ Six. That is the number that matters, and it is the number Rockstar itself stands behind. Across the first two trailers and the “Only in Leonida” pages on the official Grand Theft Auto VI site, Rockstar names and describes six regions of the state of Leonida. No more, no fewer, as of today.

Here is the part that trips people up. Rockstar has confirmed the six regions, but it has never published a full map of Leonida. There is no official atlas, no labeled city plan, no released image showing where one district ends and the next begins. Coverage across the major outlets agrees on this: the confirmed detail stops at the regional level. So the polished interactive maps you can click through online, the ones with hundreds of pins, are fan reconstructions built from trailer frames, screenshots, and the 2022 leak. Useful, often impressively accurate, but not Rockstar’s word.

Keep that split in mind, because it explains why two reputable guides can flatly disagree about whether “Little Havana” or “Stockyard” is confirmed. One counts a name shown on a sign as official; another counts only what Rockstar has formally described. Both are being honest, they are just drawing the line in different places. We will draw ours clearly.

What are the six confirmed regions of Leonida?

✅ Here is the official skeleton, with Rockstar’s own framing for each region and the real slice of the American South it draws from. The taglines and descriptions come from the Only in Leonida region pages and Trailer 2, collected by GTABase and Beebom.

Now the detail worth having on each, because the one-line version sells them short.

Vice City is the anchor, Rockstar’s rebuilt Miami and the only true metropolis in the game. Rockstar calls it the “sun and fun capital of America,” and the trailers lean into the postcard: art deco hotels along the sand, a neon strip at night, glass towers downtown, and a working waterfront the site frames as a cruise-ship hub. This is the most detailed city Rockstar has ever built, and it carries most of the map’s density.

The Leonida Keys sit at the southern tip, a chain of islands linked by long causeways over turquoise water. Rockstar’s second trailer sells the vibe plainly: the dress code is casual, the bars are loaded, and you are on the doorstep of some of the most beautiful and dangerous waters in America. 🔬 This is also where Jason and Lucia’s starting apartment was shown, which places the opening of the story at the bottom of the map. More on that pair in the leads guide. How closely the chain tracks the real Florida Keys, down to the broken bridge in the trailers, gets its own side-by-side comparison.

Grassrivers is the Everglades, described by Rockstar as “the untamable jewel of Leonida’s crown,” where the alligators are the famous danger and, in the studio’s words, there are deadlier things among the mangroves. Expect airboats, wildlife, and the off-grid communities that live out where the roads stop.

Port Gellhorn is the one that breaks the Miami postcard, and it is the more interesting for it. Rockstar frames it as “Leonida’s forgotten coast,” a faded Gulf-side town of cheap motels, shut-down roadside attractions, and empty strip malls. It reads as the Florida Panhandle rather than South Beach, running on malt liquor and truck-stop energy drinks.

Ambrosia is farm and factory country by Lake Leonida, where Rockstar says “American industry and old school values still reign supreme.” The official page centers a sugar refinery as the source of local jobs, plus a resident biker gang, painting a working-class inland region a world away from the coast.

Mount Kalaga National Park covers the elevated north, dense forest cut by canyons and rivers, with hiking trails and off-road routes. Rockstar populates it with, in its own phrasing, hillbilly mystics and paranoid radicals, and points to hunting and fishing as the draw. 🔬 One quiet tell here: real Florida has no mountains or canyons, so Rockstar reached north for the terrain, and fans widely tie the look to Georgia’s Providence Canyon.

What about Vice City’s neighborhoods?

This is where most location guides quietly overreach, so here is the careful version.

✅ Rockstar’s official breakdown of Vice City stops at the city level. The studio has described Vice City as a whole and shown its beaches, downtown, and port, but it has not published a neighborhood map or a list of district names. That is the confirmed ceiling.

🔬 The neighborhood names you see everywhere come from three different places, and they are not equally solid:

• Read off signage. Some names appear on street signs, storefronts, and road markers in the trailers and the June 2026 screenshots. Fans freeze-frame and catalog them. These have real evidence behind them, though a sign in the background is not the same as an official district list.
• Mapped onto real Miami. Vice City is Miami, so guides slot in the obvious real-world equivalents: a Brickell-style financial downtown, a Wynwood-style arts district often called Stockyard, a Little Havana, a Little Haiti. Reasonable, and probably close, but this is inference, not confirmation.
• Carried over from 2002. The original Vice City had its own districts, Ocean Beach, Washington Beach, Vice Point, and fans expect the callbacks to return. Expectation, again, is not the same as a Rockstar statement.

So when a guide hands you a tidy list of eight confirmed Vice City neighborhoods, check what it is counting. GTABase lists names like Ocean Beach, Little Havana, and Stockyard as confirmed on the strength of signage and screenshots; other trackers hold that only the six regions and county signage are truly official, and everything below that is provisional. Our read sits closer to the second: the names are worth knowing, and many will likely prove right, but label them 🔬 until Rockstar publishes an actual map.

One tier that does hold up better than street names: counties. 🔬 Official screenshots show county signage, including Vice-Dale County (the Miami-Dade nod), Kelly County, Leonard County, and Ambrosia County. Those names are genuinely in the game because they are on in-game signs. Where any county’s borders sit, though, is still fan-drawn.

Which specific places has Rockstar actually named?

Past the regions, there is a short list of individual spots Rockstar has genuinely put a name to, in trailers or in official written material. These are the safe ✅ ones to build on.

A caveat on that bottom five: those businesses were named because they are locked to the $99.99 Ultimate Edition, which walls them off from Standard buyers. They are confirmed places, just ones not everyone can walk into at launch. The wider map still has ordinary salons, clothing stores, and mod shops for the Standard crowd.

A few more names sit just under fully confirmed. 🔬 VCI Airport, presumably Vice City International, shows up on road signage in official footage. 🔬 Leaf Links, the golf country club from 2002’s Vice City, is one fans believe they have spotted returning, though Rockstar has not formally named it. And the June 2026 drop confirmed a classic-car restoration business run by a collector named Wyman, which is a system rather than a fixed address, but it does scatter barn-find cars across the map’s rural corners.

Boobie Ike is worth a line of his own. ✅ His official bio describes a Vice City empire spanning real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio, which makes him one of the few characters directly tied to named, ownable-feeling locations in the city. His crew and the rest of the supporting cast get the full treatment in the leads and cast guide.

Is there a seventh region? The Gloriana question

🟠 You will run into claims of a hidden seventh area, often called Gloriana, a Georgia-style region north of the six. Treat it as a leak, not a location. It traces to fan reconstructions and the 2022 leak, and it does not appear on anything Rockstar has shown. Mount Kalaga’s non-Florida terrain is real and confirmed, and it is easy to see how “the map reaches past Florida” slid into “there is a whole extra named state up there,” but those are different claims. The confirmed edge of the map is still the six regions. We keep a labeled eye on Gloriana on the hub and dig into it separately rather than smuggle it in here as fact.

What is still unconfirmed about the map?

• 🟠 A full official map. None exists. Every complete map of Leonida in circulation is a fan build. Rockstar may not release one until launch, if ever.
• 🔬 The Vice City neighborhood list. Names are cataloged from signage and Miami parallels, not from an official district map.
• 🟠 A region beyond the six (Gloriana / a Georgia area). Leak and fan reconstruction only, not shown.
• 🟠 Interior count. A widely shared “700-plus enterable interiors” figure comes from leaks, not Rockstar. The studio has shown a lot of interior space without ever totaling it.
• 🟠 How much opens at launch. Whether the whole state is explorable from the start or gated by the chapter structure is not spelled out.
• 🟠 Dynamic weather that reshapes areas. Retail-listing leaks describe storms and flooding that change traversal. Plausible, unverified.

We move any of these to Confirmed the moment Rockstar says so, on the Everything We Know hub.

The bottom line

The confirmed geography of GTA 6 is clean and short: one state, Leonida, and six named regions, Vice City, the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park, each with a real official description and a clear real-world model. That is the part you can state without a hedge. Below the region level, the ground gets soft fast. County names come off signs, neighborhood names come off signs and Miami parallels, and the seventh-region talk comes off leaks. None of that is worthless, and a lot of it will likely hold up, but it is not the same tier as the six. The most useful thing any GTA 6 map guide can do right now is tell you which line each location sits on, because Rockstar has drawn only one of those lines itself. When the studio finally publishes a real map, we will redraw the rest against it.

We update this guide when Rockstar confirms new locations. Live map facts also sit on the Everything We Know hub.
