Rockstar reveals: the map of GTA VI is bigger than that of GTA V, but history has a limit

Rockstar Games made it clear that Grand Theft Auto VI players will not be able to explore the entire map by completing the story. According to the study, the game world, called Leonida and inspired by Florida, is about twice the size of Los Santos and Blaine County in GTA V. Rupert Humphries, senior vice president of the Rockstar narrative division, explained to Game Informer that the campaign is designed to allow players to familiarize themselves with much of the territory, cultures and the atmosphere of the state, leaving the rest to be discovered independently. Aaron Garbut of Rockstar North described Leonida as the largest world ever created by the studio, “of a great deal.” The surface of the state extends over six distinct regions: Vice City, inspired by Miami; Grassrivers, based on Everglades; Leonida Keys; Port Gellhorn; Ambrosia; and Mount Kalaga National Park. The map will host over 170 animal species, including alligators, lamantines, flamingos, sharks, whales and macaques, with a wide variety of rare and legendary creatures. Weather conditions will be localized and dynamic, with wind, rain and tropical storms that will affect the game environment. The relationship between the characters Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos may develop in a romantic or platonic way, depending on the players' choices. The RydeMe ride-hailing service will allow players to move freely within the world of play, changing radio station, consulting social media or interacting with the driver on the way. Grand Theft Auto VI will be available on November 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. La dimensione di Leonida, raddoppiata rispetto a GTA V, è un dato che finanzia concretamente l'hype attorno a GTA VI. L’idea di una Florida fittizia, arricchita da sei regioni distinte – Vice City, Grassrivers, le Leonida Keys, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia e il Mount Kalaga National Park – promette una varietà ambientale e culturale senza precedenti, anche considerando l'apporto di oltre 170 specie animali. La componente dinamica delle condizioni meteorologiche localizzate aggiunge un ulteriore livello di immersione, sottolineando la volontà di Rockstar di creare un mondo non solo vasto ma anche vivo e reattivo. Il fatto che il rapporto tra Duval e Caminos possa evolvere in termini romantici o platonici offre, inoltre, un elemento narrativo non banale, aprendo scenari di interazione e sviluppo del personaggio coerenti con la libertà di scelta tipica della saga. L'integrazione di RydeMe nel gameplay rappresenta un dettaglio funzionale di grande valore, aumentando ulteriormente la flessibilità e l’esplorabilità all'interno dell'immensa mappa.
