WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT LEONIDA
Among the most searched GTA 6 details is the world itself. Grand Theft Auto VI takes place across the fictional U.S. state of Leonida, a modern reimagining of Florida, with Vice City at its heart. Rather than a single city, Rockstar's official trailers and screenshots reveal an entire state of neon nightlife, open coastline, wetlands, islands, and quiet rural backcountry.
Several GTA 6 map locations have been officially named, including Vice City, the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga. Together they point to one of Rockstar's most varied open worlds yet, shifting from neon beachfront to backwater swamp and lonely rural roads.
What Rockstar has not revealed is the complete GTA 6 map layout, its exact size, or the full location count. Any "full map" or map size figure circulating online is unverified until Rockstar confirms it directly.

THE PROTAGONISTS: LUCIA & JASON
For the first time in the series, GTA 6 stars two playable protagonists: Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval. Lucia is the first major voiced female lead in a mainline Grand Theft Auto story, introduced in Trailer 2 fresh out of prison and reuniting with Jason. Together they form the heart of the GTA 6 story across the state of Leonida.
Rockstar frames the pair as a modern Bonnie and Clyde. In the studio's own story setup, an easy score goes wrong and drags the two into a conspiracy spanning the state of Leonida, forcing them to rely on each other to survive, a partnership at the heart of the game.
The names, the dual-lead structure, and the Bonnie-and-Clyde premise are official. Exactly how character switching works in gameplay has not been detailed by Rockstar yet.
Lucia Caminos
Series' first major voiced female lead. Just out of prison, all-in with Jason. CONFIRMED
