GTA 6 Map: The 6 Regions of Leonida

Official screenshots show dirt bikes and ATVs pulling tricks on a city road, a club with dollar bills floating over the dancers, and a night skyline with a ferris wheel.

One shot catches two women being handcuffed by a police officer while a third takes a selfie in front of them and a fourth poses on the police car.

Ultimate Edition places sit across the city: Stock 305 and the Electric Fang Tattoo in Stockyard, the Squalo boat at Washington Beach, and the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay.

The Ultimate Edition's compound raid targets one of Southside Vice City's loudest gangs — see GTA 6 compound raids.

Jason works for local drug runners in the Keys, and Brian Heder is a drug runner from the golden age of smuggling there.

Official screenshots show an iguana crossing in front of a mobility scooter, a rowdy beach bar, and boat parties with jet skis and flamingo floaties.

Under the water, Rockstar shows two scuba divers among coral, fish, an eel and a sea turtle.

Official screenshots show two men in a room under grow lights, one holding a shovel and the other a baseball bat.

Nights in Port Gellhorn: a motel with its vacancy sign lit, a cabaret parking lot, and a woman passing a package through a car window.

Another shot shows a bonfire party, a couple off to the side by a pickup truck.

Official screenshots show the Ambrosia skyline at night with smoke stacks, and a biker gang riding in matching leather vests.

Game Informer's cover story calls Leonida the biggest map Rockstar has made, twice GTA V's, split into six major sections. Its north edge is the Leonida–Gloriana line, Rockstar's Florida–Georgia border.

Ambrosia is run by a biker gang, the First Chapter, whose bar is the Thirsty Wolf. Roads are narrower and closer to real-world widths than GTA V's, with denser traffic.

Leonida has dynamic cloudscapes and localized storms: you can see rain falling in the distance while you stay dry. Puddles and wet surfaces linger after a storm, and rainbows can form.

Tropical storms and seasonal hurricanes hit Leonida. Game Informer says Rockstar has not said how often, or how they affect gameplay and the story.

Over 170 animal species live across land, air and sea, some never seen in a Rockstar game: flamingos, manatees, pelicans and alligators, plus invasive green iguanas, cane toads, feral cats and rhesus macaques.

Some animals are classed as Rare, Discoverable or Legendary, and Rockstar is keeping the legendary ones secret. You can study animals as in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Police cruisers marked "Vice Beach Police" chase Jason and Lucia past art deco hotels and a pink seafront promenade, so Vice Beach has its own police force, as Miami Beach does.

Jason and Lucia meet Brian Heder and his wife Lori for lunch at the Effluvia, a rooftop restaurant with a neon sign, before Brian brokers a job for them.

The opening mission, collecting from Raymond for Boobie Ike, passes W. Blanco's Cuban Foods, a grocery under a mural of an eagle, a flag and a rifle, with a water tower behind.

The last third of the video is a gala for Megamundo, a Spanish-speaking multinational opening its first US headquarters in Vice City. Its COO is Petra Navarro, and Jason and Lucia work security for Andrés de León.

Brands on screen: a TV ad for Angstipan, a parody antidepressant ("Does life feel hopeless?"), and GAINZ weight plates in the gym where Lucia does the L2/R2 bench-press minigame. Game Informer confirms Snapmatic, GTA V's photo app, is back.

The story begins in the Leonida Keys, where Jason's first house from the trailer sits. When you unlock new areas they are filled in on the map; unexplored areas stay hidden until you visit, as in GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2.

Areas around hideouts are safe zones where vehicles cannot be stolen, and some story locations are protected too.

Robbery targets above the local-store tier can show up on this map with an estimated take — see the GTA 6 heists page.
