The fan-made GTA 6 interactive map at map.stateofleonida.net has reached v13, now featuring over 1,570 markers covering Vice City, the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, and every confirmed region in the state of Leonida.
The fan-made GTA 6 interactive map reached version 13 on June 24, 2026, and now contains over 1,570 individual markers across the fictional state of Leonida. While Rockstar Games has not released an official world map, the community-driven project at map.stateofleonida.net reconstructs the game world frame by frame using trailers, official screenshots, and pre-order promotional materials. Grand Theft Auto VI launches November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with pre-orders live since June 25.
What Is the State of Leonida Map Project?
The State of Leonida project is the work of dedicated GTA mapping community members, most notably Saukko505 and Yanis, who have spent years analyzing every pixel of Rockstar’s official output. The v13 update was triggered by the new Vice City clip Rockstar released alongside its pre-order announcement on June 18. Every building, highway, beach, and landmark visible in trailers or screenshots has been cross-referenced with real Florida geography and placed on the interactive map.
Markers are sorted into four main categories: 1,441 Landmarks, 42 Leaks, 50 Trailer locations, and 37 Screenshot matches. Clicking any marker reveals the source evidence, whether that is a specific trailer frame, a screenshot comparison, or a real-world Florida equivalent. The map supports English and German, runs directly in the browser, and offers features like heatmap overlays, clustering, and customizable visual themes.
Which Locations Has Rockstar Officially Confirmed?
Rockstar Games has confirmed six major regions within Leonida: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park. These span at least three named counties: Vice-Dale County in the southeast, Leonard County to the north, and Kelly County in the northwest. The community map goes well beyond these official confirmations, adding hundreds of buildings, roads, bridges, and commercial locations derived from visual analysis.
| Location | Status | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Vice City | Confirmed | City |
| Port Gellhorn | Confirmed | City |
| Ambrosia | Confirmed | Industrial Town |
| Leonida Keys | Confirmed | Tropical Archipelago |
| Grassrivers | Confirmed | Wetlands |
| Mount Kalaga National Park | Confirmed | National Park |
| Lake Leonida | Confirmed | Lake |
| Vice City International Airport | Confirmed | Airport |
| Ocean Beach | Confirmed | Landmark |
| Malibu Club | Confirmed | Landmark |
| Little Haiti | Rumoured | District |
| Washington Beach | Rumoured | District |
| Venetian Islands | Rumoured | Islands |
Vice City: The Neon-Lit Urban Core
Vice City sits on the southeastern coastline of Leonida, not in the centre of the map as some early theories suggested. Inspired by modern Miami, it serves as the game’s primary urban setting, combining luxury neighbourhoods, crowded beaches, nightlife, ports, business districts, and dense residential streets. The community map shows it as by far the most densely marked area, with well over 200 individually tagged structures.
Confirmed Vice City landmarks include Ocean Beach, Vice Beach, Ocean Drive, Vice City International Airport, VC Port (described by Rockstar as “the cruise ship capital of the world”), the Malibu Club, the Monument of Leonida, South Tower, Vercetti Estate, and the Starlet Motel. Rumoured districts such as Little Haiti, Leaf Links, Rockridge, Washington Beach, South Beach, Stockyard, and the Venetian Islands have strong trailer evidence but remain unconfirmed by Rockstar.
The sheer density of enterable locations in Vice City is expected to dwarf any previous GTA title. Community estimates put the number of walk-in interiors across the full game at over 700, including restaurants, nightclubs, motels, gun stores, metro stations, and residential buildings.
Leonida Keys: Where Jason and Lucia’s Story Begins
The Leonida Keys are GTA 6’s version of the Florida Keys: a chain of tropical islands connected by long bridges and coastal roads stretching across the southern edge of the map. Based on Trailer 2 footage, protagonists Jason and Lucia start the game here, with their initial safehouse located on one of the islands.
Key Lento (based on Key Largo) appears to be the main settlement, with confirmed points of interest including Stock 305, Electric Fang Tattoo, One-Eyed Willie’s, and The Rusty Anchor. The community map reveals the Keys extend much further east than originally expected. Underwater exploration around the Keys is anticipated to be one of GTA 6’s standout features, with coral reefs, shipwrecks, and submerged caves marked on the interactive map.
Grassrivers: The Everglades Reimagined
Grassrivers occupy the southwestern portion of Leonida and represent Rockstar’s take on Florida’s Everglades. The region is one of the largest natural areas on the map, consisting of swamps, mangroves, rivers, marshes, and wildlife habitats. Rockstar has shown airboats, alligators, dense vegetation, and hovercraft traversal through the area in its trailers.
According to the mapping project, Grassrivers is substantially larger than many early theories suggested. Paradise Garage and Watson Bay are confirmed locations within the region. The area connects the southern tip of the map near the Leonida Keys to the interior, making it a critical corridor for exploration. Community speculation points to hidden stash houses, off-grid NPC communities, and treasure locations accessible only by airboat.
Port Gellhorn: Leonida’s Forgotten Coast
Sitting on the western coastline, Port Gellhorn is inspired by Panama City, Florida. Rockstar officially describes it as “Leonida’s forgotten coast” with cheap motels, shut-down attractions, and empty strip malls. The economy runs on “malt liquor, painkillers, and truck stop energy drinks,” according to the game’s official website description.
The Starlet Motel and Delights Cabaret are confirmed points of interest. Biker gangs maintain a strong presence throughout the region, tying directly into the main story. The community map shows Port Gellhorn’s industrial coastline connected to major highways and railway lines, making it a key logistics hub within the game world.
Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga: The Rural Interior
Located beside Lake Leonida, Ambrosia serves as Leonida’s agricultural and industrial heartland. The Allied Crystal sugar refinery dominates the local economy, while highways, farmland, railroads, and factories surround the town. Rockstar hints that biker gangs provide “almost everything else” in this area, suggesting a raw, land-based criminal economy very different from Vice City’s glamour.
Mount Kalaga National Park occupies the northernmost border of Leonida, introducing dense forests, canyons, rivers, hiking trails, and off-road routes. This is the closest GTA 6 gets to Red Dead Redemption terrain. Rockstar describes the area as home to “hillbilly mystics and paranoid radicals,” with activities expected to include hunting, fishing, and off-road exploration. The mapping project shows the park borders another state called Gloriana, referenced through in-game license plates and road signs.
How Accurate Is the Fan-Made Map?
The community project is transparent about its limitations. Out of 1,570 markers, 223 are currently tagged as “Unconfirmed.” The project underwent a major revision in early 2026 when the panhandle section was removed entirely, not because it was proven to be fake, but because there was no direct evidence for its existence in any official material. This made the map smaller but significantly more accurate.
The mapping community applies strict evidence standards. Only locations shown directly in trailers, screenshots, or official Rockstar materials qualify as confirmed. Everything else is clearly labelled as speculation. The project’s creators estimate a 10 to 15 percent margin of error, which will narrow as Rockstar releases more marketing material ahead of the November launch.
How Does the GTA 6 Map Compare to GTA 5?
| Feature | GTA 5 (Los Santos) | GTA 6 (Leonida) |
|---|---|---|
| Major cities | 1 (Los Santos) | 1 major + 4 sub-cities |
| Confirmed counties | 2 | 5+ |
| Enterable locations | ~150 | 700+ (estimated) |
| Distinct biomes | 3-4 | 6 |
| Underwater exploration | Limited | Extensive |
| Highway network | Moderate | Extensive interstate system |
| Estimated map size | ~49 sq miles | ~83 sq miles (estimated) |
Current community estimates suggest the GTA 6 map is approximately 1.5 to 2 times larger than GTA 5’s San Andreas. Beyond raw size, the density of interactive content per square mile appears far higher. GTA 5 had vast stretches of empty desert and mountain terrain, while Leonida fills nearly every area with explorable structures, dynamic events, and environmental variety spanning six distinct biomes.
Pre-Order Details and Release Timeline
GTA 6 pre-orders opened on June 25, 2026 across PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, and selected retailers. The Standard Edition is priced at €79.99 in Europe and $80 in the US. The Ultimate Edition costs €99.99 / $99.99 and includes additional vehicles, weapons, and cosmetic items. All pre-orders include the Vintage Vice City Pack bonus content.
Physical copies will contain a code in a box rather than a disc. Preload starts on November 12, one week before the November 19 launch date. A PC version has not been announced, but Rockstar’s track record with GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 suggests a PC port will follow months after the console release.
How to Explore the Interactive Map Right Now
The fan-made interactive map is freely accessible at map.stateofleonida.net. It works directly in any modern browser without downloads, supports mobile devices, and offers extensive customisation including dark mode, visual filters, marker clustering, and distance measurement in kilometres or miles. You can click any marker to view its source evidence, filter by category, and even play a location-guessing game based on trailer screenshots.
The map will continue updating with every new piece of official content Rockstar releases before launch. The much-anticipated third trailer is expected to add substantial new data. Once GTA 6 launches on November 19, the community plans to compare their reconstruction against the actual game world, making months of collaborative detective work one of the most fascinating experiments in gaming community history.
