GTA 6 map

GTA 6 returns players to the iconic fictional city of Vice City, Rockstar's take on Miami, while expanding the world into the wider state of Leonida, inspired by Florida.

These are the key locations confirmed so far:

Vice City: Rockstar's version of Miami, featuring landmarks such as Little Cuba, Ocean Beach, and a major international airport.

Leonida Keys: A chain of tropical islands based on the Florida Keys, known for its boating culture and history of smuggling.

Grassrivers: Inspired by the Everglades, this swampy region blends wildlife, local culture, and the origins of several homegrown rap artists.

Port Gellhorn: A rundown coastal town that serves as a hotspot for experienced criminals chasing lucrative heists.

Ambrosia: A peaceful-looking community with picturesque sunsets, though its calm exterior hides criminal activity.

Mount Kalaga: A mountainous wilderness area that introduces higher elevations and rugged terrain to the game's map.

GTA 6 storyline

The story centres on Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, a criminal duo inspired by the legendary Bonnie and Clyde, as they navigate Leonida's underworld.

Jason is a former Army serviceman whose difficult upbringing among scammers and criminals shaped his life. After leaving the military, he found himself working alongside drug traffickers in the Leonida Keys. Hoping to change his fortunes, Jason's path crosses with Lucia, a meeting he believes could either transform his life for the better or make things even worse.

Lucia learned to fight from her father at a young age and eventually landed in Leonida Penitentiary after trying to defend her family. Recently released, she is determined to avoid past mistakes and build the prosperous life her mother always wanted after leaving Liberty City. She believes teaming up with Jason offers her the best chance to achieve that dream.
