Leonida: a fictional Florida
The game's world is Leonida, a fictional Florida-inspired state, centered on the city of Vice City. Leonida reimagines the Sunshine State: sun-bleached beaches, art-deco strips, sprawling suburbs, alligator-filled wetlands, and small inland towns. It's a bigger canvas than a single city — Vice City is the heart, but it's surrounded by a full state to explore.
What the trailers reveal
- Vice City: the dense, neon urban core — beaches, nightlife, and traffic-choked avenues.
- The wetlands & Keys: swampy backcountry and island chains hint at airboats, beaches, and off-the-grid hideouts.
- Suburbs & small towns: trailer parks, strip malls, and highways stretch the map well beyond the city.
- A living world: crowded beaches and busy streets point to a denser, more reactive simulation than past entries.
How big is the map?
Rockstar hasn't given exact dimensions, so any specific size is unconfirmed. What the footage strongly implies is scale and variety — a major city plus a surrounding state, likely among the largest worlds the studio has built. We'll update this page with concrete figures if Rockstar shares them.
