GTA 6 Map: All 6 Regions of Leonida

When the official GTA 6 map comes out

The official GTA 6 map comes out on November 19, 2026, when Rockstar adds a printable map of Leonida and a cover art poster to its site as a free download, as it said in its pre-load announcement.³ A double-sided paper version follows shortly after launch from the Rockstar Store, for $0.99 on its own or free with any Rockstar Store order.

Older GTA games put a paper map in the box. GTA 6 boxed copies hold only a download code, and reports say the map is not inside them.⁶ Rockstar's $399.99 collector's box, which does not include the game, comes with a double-sided souvenir poster that has a map of Leonida on it.⁷

Inside the game, the mini-map appears to show buildings in 3D, a detail Kotaku spotted in the Extended Look footage.⁸

GTA 6 map size compared with GTA 5

The GTA 6 map is roughly twice the size of GTA 5's, according to Edge, which spent 90 minutes with Rockstar North's Rob Nelson for its cover story.⁹ Rockstar put it another way to Edge: Leonida's total landmass nearly matches the playable maps of GTA 4, GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 put together.

Rockstar itself has not published a square mile figure. Rockstar's Aaron Garbut told Game Informer that Leonida is the studio's biggest map "by some degree," which VGC summed up as twice the size of GTA 5.⁵ The full comparison, with the numbers that don't agree, is on the GTA 6 map size page.

Where the GTA 6 map is based in real life

The GTA 6 map is based on Florida, though Rockstar's own site never uses the word: it calls Leonida "the sunshine state," Florida's real nickname.¹ Edge reports that Rob Nelson led a small research trip to Miami and that the state was picked quickly for its dense cities, swamps and mixed landscapes.⁹

VGC, citing Game Informer's cover story, says each region draws on a different part of Florida: Miami for Vice City, the Keys, the Everglades, Florida's faded tourist towns for Port Gellhorn and the culture of the Florida and Georgia border for Mount Kalaga.⁵ The street-level matches, from South Beach to PortMiami, are on where GTA 6 is located.

GTA 6 map places Rockstar has named so far

GTA 6 map places named by Rockstar so far come from its region pages, its edition panels and the captions on its official screenshots.¹⁰ Where Rockstar does not say which region a place is in, the table says so rather than guessing.

How this GTA 6 map adds pins after launch

This GTA 6 map adds pins from November 19, 2026, as players find places in the game and post them in videos, screenshots and threads. Each pin is plotted on this map by hand and described in our own words, with a link to where it was first shown and credit to the player who found it.

Every pin carries one of two labels: confirmed, when two independent sources show the same spot, or reported, when only one does. If you find a place first, send it through the corrections and submissions form with a link to your proof.
