GTA 6 Map — Everything We Know About Vice City 2025

CONFIRMED SETTING

Vice City Returns

Rockstar confirmed in Trailer 1 (December 2023) and Trailer 2 (May 2025) that GTA 6 is set in Vice City — the fictional version of Miami, Florida. This marks the first return to Vice City since GTA: Vice City in 2002.

The trailer shows a modern-day Vice City with updated architecture, diverse neighborhoods, beachfront areas, and a sprawling metropolitan area that extends far beyond the original game's map.

VICE CITY (MIAMI)

The main city hub. Shown in trailers with beachfront districts, downtown skyscrapers, nightclubs, and suburban neighborhoods. Modern-day setting.

CONFIRMED

EVERGLADES / RURAL AREAS

Trailer shows swampland, rural highways, and countryside areas surrounding the city — suggesting a large map extending beyond Vice City proper.

PORT GELLHORN

Leaks suggest a port city separate from Vice City, potentially based on a Florida Gulf Coast city like Tampa or Fort Lauderdale.

RUMORED

KEYS-STYLE ISLANDS

Multiple leakers have mentioned Florida Keys-inspired island chains accessible by boat or plane south of the main map.

LOCATIONS

Confirmed & Leaked Locations

Ocean Beach / South Beach District

The trailer prominently features a Miami Beach-style area with art deco architecture, beachfront hotels, and a vibrant nightlife district. This appears to be one of the main starting areas.

Downtown Vice City

A dense urban core with modern skyscrapers, shown in several trailer shots. Features highways, underpasses, and a large financial district based on Miami's Brickell neighborhood.

Little Haiti / Haitian District

The trailer explicitly shows a district inspired by Miami's Little Haiti neighborhood — colorful murals, local businesses, and a distinct cultural atmosphere.

Everglades / Leonida Countryside

Rural Florida is confirmed — swamps, alligators, pickup trucks, and country roads. "Leonida" appears to be the state name for the fictional Florida in GTA 6.

Vice Beach / Strip

A Las Vegas-style beach strip with casinos, clubs, and hotels. Multiple trailer shots show this area at night with neon lights and heavy foot traffic.

FAQ

GTA 6 Map Questions Answered

Will GTA 6 have multiple cities?

Likely yes. Early leaks suggested multiple cities, and the trailer shows what appears to be different regions beyond Vice City proper. However, Rockstar has only officially confirmed Vice City as the primary setting.

Can you go underwater in GTA 6?

Based on the Vice City / Florida setting and Rockstar's history of expanding underwater exploration (GTA V had extensive underwater areas), GTA 6 is almost certain to feature detailed underwater environments, coral reefs, and shipwrecks.

Will the GTA 6 map expand over time?

Rockstar has confirmed GTA Online will continue as a major part of GTA 6. Based on GTA V's history of adding new areas via updates (Cayo Perico, etc.), the GTA 6 map will almost certainly expand post-launch through free updates and DLC.

Is Vice City the same as GTA Vice City (2002)?

Same fictional city, completely rebuilt from scratch. GTA 6's Vice City is a modern reimagining set in the present day, not a remaster of the 2002 game. The geography may be inspired by the original but will be massively expanded and updated.
