GTA VIVice City and Leonida guide

World

Leonida and its six regions

Grand Theft Auto VI is set in the state of Leonida. Rockstar has named six regions and described each one, and its screenshot sets add a good deal of detail. Each region below separates what Rockstar says from what its images show.

Rockstar's Only in Leonida page introduces the state through six places: a city, an island chain, a wetland, a run-down stretch of coast, an industrial heartland and a national landmark near the northern border. Its media page adds a screenshot set for each, which we looked through for this page.

The summaries are ours, written from Rockstar's text. The "shown" notes are our reading of the screenshots and are labeled that way. The regions are listed in Rockstar's order, which is not geographic.

About the map

No map is published on Rockstar's site. The collector's box poster has an illustrated map of Leonida on its back, but Rockstar has not said how it relates to the in-game map, and there are no distances or size figures anywhere.

The regions

Wetlands

Grassrivers

A huge wetland of mangroves and slow water. Rockstar says the gators are the most famous attraction and that deadlier predators and stranger discoveries are hidden in the swamp.

A rain-slick working harbor at night: a peeling two-story building with neon lights, a pickup truck and workers on the wet dock, a rusty fishing boat, cargo cranes and a highway bridge under storm clouds.

Forgotten coast

Port Gellhorn

A run-down stretch of coast with cheap motels, closed attractions and empty strip malls. Rockstar describes a new economy built on malt liquor, painkillers and truck stop energy drinks, and suggests a dirt bike for getting around.

Places without a region

Rockstar's Ultimate Edition descriptions name more places than the six regions cover, but do not say which region they belong to. They are listed here and left unplaced.

  • Gambit Bay Named as a place to cast a line from the Shitzu Squalo.
  • Washington Beach Where the Squalo is docked in its description.

  • Lake Leonida Where One-Eyed Willie's mod shop is.

Rockstar's media page has a screenshot set for each of the six regions, 42 in all, and its video pages hold both trailers and the Extended Look. We do not copy or host Rockstar's images or video.
