Every GTA 6 Location Explained: All Six Regions of Leonida

Berserker’s “EVERY GTA 6 Location EXPLAINED” tours all six regions of Leonida back to back, reading Rockstar’s own region panels against trailer and Extended Look footage. This article follows the same order, checks his readings against the frames and the site’s own knowledge base, and flags the two places where his narration and the on-screen text disagree.

GTA 6 is set in the state of Leonida, which Rockstar splits into six regions: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga. Berserker’s video “EVERY GTA 6 Location EXPLAINED”, posted September 4, 2026, tours all six back to back against Rockstar’s own region panels. This article follows the same order, checks his readings against the frames, and keeps his own guesses labeled as his rather than stated as fact.

Where is GTA 6 set?

Leonida, home to “the neon-soaked streets of Vice City and beyond,” per Rockstar’s own “Only in Leonida” site, and where Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos’s whole story plays out. The site’s own locations database and map track every named place as Rockstar and creators confirm it; this article is the region-by-region tour built on Berserker’s footage.

How big is the GTA 6 map?

Rockstar has not published a map size. Berserker calls it “the biggest map Rockstar has ever built,” twice GTA 5’s size and three times Red Dead Redemption 2’s: his own claim, unbacked by any trailer or statement, so it stays an estimate. His separate claim that Vice City is “two times larger” than Los Santos carries the same caveat.

What are the six GTA 6 map regions?

Each region carries its own headline on Rockstar’s “Only in Leonida” site. The table lines up Rockstar’s own billing against what Berserker’s footage adds.

RegionRockstar’s headlineWhat Rockstar names thereWhat Berserker’s footage adds
Vice City“Everything in Excess”Ocean Beach, Little Cuba, Southside Vice City, Tisha-Wocka flea market, VC PortThe VICE hillside sign, a Little Haiti-styled district he calls Lapel, Electric Fang Tattoo
Leonida Keys“Gateway to Paradise”Jason Duval, Brian Heder’s boat yardBrian’s Boat Works & Marina sign, the Wonder Whale roadside attraction, Air Ward Key airfield
Grassrivers“Welcome to the Wetlands”(no named settlement on the official panel)An OfficialPOACH social post, Watson Bay, airboat traffic
Port Gellhorn“Live Hard”(no named settlement on the official panel)The Starlet Motel sign, a raceway he calls Gellhorn International, Draper Island
Ambrosia“Keeping Leonida Sweet”Allied Crystal sugar refinery, the local biker gang“Vote Erin Henshaw” signs, Ambrosia County Sheriff’s Office sign, Final Chapter MC patches
Mount Kalaga“Wild, Wild Country”(no named settlement on the official panel)An abandoned cement plant, motocross and off-road trails, a Final Chapter MC sighting

GTA 6 Grassrivers

Rockstar’s own panel: “Welcome to the Wetlands. The untamable jewel of Leonida’s crown. You never know what lies beneath the surface of this primordial expanse. The gators may be the most famous attraction, but there are far deadlier predators and weirder discoveries among the mangroves.” Berserker places it southwest of Vice City, Rockstar’s take on the Everglades.

GTA 6 in-game social post from account OfficialPOACH reading Stay Alert VC, shown over a backyard pool with an alligator in Berserker's Grassrivers footage
1:32. Berserker’s Grassrivers chapter: an in-fiction phone post from an account reading “OfficialPOACH”, not “Porch” as his narration and auto-captions say, warning “Stay Alert VC! Remember to check for uninvited guests before the pool party.”

Rockstar’s own footage shows alligators, herons and nutria in Grassrivers; Berserker expects the roster to run deeper, into crocodiles, panthers and bobcats, his own guess rather than anything shown on screen. He calls the wildlife-enforcement agency in his footage “Porch,” short for “protection of animals and controlled hunting,” and speculates it could enable a poacher-versus-law dynamic where players hunt illegally or work with the agency against wildlife criminals. The only readable in-fiction text in his own footage spells the account “OfficialPOACH,” not “Porch”, so this article uses that spelling; the gameplay dynamic itself remains Berserker’s own speculation, not a confirmed system. He also points to a real-world parallel, Florida’s Gladesmen culture of hunters and trappers, and guesses that hunted animals could be sold on legally or illegally through a fence, mirroring the drug and jewelry fences already confirmed for GTA 6’s economy.

2:50. Berserker’s Grassrivers chapter: the stilted waterfront town he calls Watson Bay, a water tower whose lettering starts “WAT” in the background, with Vice City’s skyline across the water.

Berserker names this settlement Watson Bay: stilted buildings, a lodge, a two-story motel, and NPCs on balconies and docks, comparing it to small Florida Gulf towns like Cedar Key. Watson Bay itself is official: Rockstar’s Ultimate Edition list stores the ’67 Vapid Dominator Buggy at the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay. Its place inside Grassrivers is Berserker’s, since he covers it in that chapter; Rockstar has not said which region it belongs to. Airboats look, in his words, like the main way to get around the grass rivers, which he expects to bring high-speed chases through narrow canals, again his own reading of what the footage suggests rather than a confirmed traversal system.

GTA 6 Ambrosia

Rockstar’s own panel: “Keeping Leonida Sweet. The battle for the health and wealth of Leonida begins here. In the heart of Leonida, American industry and old school values still reign supreme, whatever the cost. The Allied Crystal sugar refinery provides the jobs, while the local biker gang provides almost everything else.” Berserker compares the region to the real Belle Glade sugar country on Lake Okeechobee’s southwest edge, with Lake Leonida standing in for the real lake and the Allied Crystal refinery for the sugar industry that dominates it.

4:24. Berserker’s Ambrosia chapter: lawn signs read “Allied Crystal, the sweet lifeblood of Ambrosia, Vote Erin Henshaw”, under an “Ambrosia County Sheriffs Office” road sign.

Rockstar’s panel does not mention an election. Berserker’s narration calls the candidate “Aaron Henshaw” and guesses Allied Crystal is backing the campaign, given the shared signage. The printed signs read “Erin Henshaw,” not “Aaron”, so that is the name used here; the Allied Crystal connection and Berserker’s rival candidate name, heard only in the audio and never shown in writing, remain his own reading. The same frame also carries a road sign naming the county itself: “Ambrosia County Sheriffs Office.”

5:18. Berserker’s Ambrosia chapter: vest patches read “Final Chapter” over a skull emblem and “Ambrosia” on the bottom rocker, naming the region’s biker gang.

Berserker calls this club the Final Chapter MC and says its patches give a founding year of 1982; at this resolution the year on the patch in this frame is too small to read with certainty, so treat the founding year as unconfirmed until Rockstar states one. He speculates the club could serve as Allied Crystal’s unofficial muscle and, since it appears to ride beyond Ambrosia, could be a larger statewide faction than GTA 5’s Lost MC, both explicitly his own guesses. Beyond the refinery and the bikers, Berserker expects Ambrosia to lean into mud and motorsport culture, pointing to artwork of a monster truck and an in-game dirt track resembling Hendry County Motorsports Park, and into fishing on Lake Leonida, which he calls more central to the map than GTA 5’s Alamo Sea.

GTA 6 Port Gellhorn

Rockstar’s own panel: “Live Hard. This is Leonida’s forgotten coast. Cheap motels, shut-down attractions, and empty strip malls won’t bring the tourists back, but there’s a new economy in this once-popular vacation spot. It’s fueled by malt liquor, painkillers, and truck stop energy drinks. Jump on a dirt bike and hold onto your wallet.” Berserker compares it to Panama City Beach after its spring-break decline, with a second inspiration in Port Charlotte and Charlotte Harbor.

7:08. Berserker’s Port Gellhorn chapter: the Starlet Motel’s neon sign, the kind of faded roadside business Rockstar’s own panel describes as “Leonida’s forgotten coast.”

Berserker names a “Gellhorn International Raceway,” which he compares to the real Sebring International Raceway and calls likely GTA 6’s first major organized-racing circuit, and a separate district he calls Draper Island, inspired by the barrier islands around Charlotte Harbor. Neither name appears as legible on-screen text in the footage checked for this article, so both stay attributed to Berserker rather than stated as confirmed place names. He expects the wider region to run on dirt bikes, trail riding, motocross, port-based smuggling missions, and a salvage yard that handles boats as well as cars, alongside dive bars like one he calls the Gellhorn Roadhouse, all his own reading of what the footage suggests rather than confirmed activities.

GTA 6 Mount Kalaga

Rockstar’s own panel: “Wild, Wild Country. Room to breathe on the state’s northern fringes. A national landmark up against the state’s northern border, Mount Kalaga offers prime hunting, fishing, and off-road trails. In the lush surrounding backwoods, hillbilly mystics and paranoid radicals live far from the prying eyes of the government.” Berserker calls it the least understood of the six regions and blends real-world references: Providence Canyon in Georgia for its canyons, Table Rock in North Carolina’s Linville Gorge for the mountain itself, and Red Dead Redemption 2’s Roanoke Ridge for the overall feel.

9:54. Berserker’s Mount Kalaga chapter: dirt bike racers pass an abandoned cement plant, one of the off-road locations he expects to host races and stunts.

Beyond Rockstar’s own “hillbilly mystics and paranoid radicals” line, Berserker extends the idea into survivalist compounds, moonshiners, militia groups and isolated religious or cult encounters, all his own extrapolation rather than anything Rockstar has confirmed. He also reports seeing a Final Chapter MC convoy riding through Mount Kalaga, which he reads as proof the Ambrosia biker gang operates well beyond its home territory; that sighting is his own identification, not separately verified against a legible patch in this region’s footage. Hunting is shown through screenshots of hunters with rifles and a freshly killed deer, and off-roading, dirt bike and ATV tracks, looks like a confirmed activity across the abandoned industrial sites Berserker points to.

GTA 6 Leonida Keys

Rockstar’s own panel: “Gateway to Paradise. The dress code is casual, the bars are loaded. Life in this tropical archipelago isn’t flashy but it’s easy. Get your buzz on and pull up a deck chair, but look out: you are right on the doorstep of some of the most beautiful and dangerous waters in all of America.” It is also where Rockstar’s own character bios place Jason before the story starts: he “found himself in the Keys doing what he knows best, working for local drug runners.”

12:20. Berserker’s Leonida Keys chapter: the sign naming Brian Heder’s marina, confirmed by Rockstar’s own bio as the boat yard where he lets Jason live rent-free in exchange for shakedown work.

Berserker splits the Keys into an Atlantic side he describes as deep and rough, good for big-game fishing and diving, and a shallow, mangrove-lined Gulf side he expects smugglers to use as an escape route from police boats. He also names a fenced military airfield he calls Air Ward Key, comparing it to the real NAS Key West and expecting restricted airspace and smuggling missions around it, a name and gameplay guess that stays his own since no legible sign confirms it in this footage. Cal Hampton, Jason’s friend, monitors Coast Guard radio for him, per Rockstar’s own bio, which Berserker suggests could pair with the region’s radar blimp to let players learn patrol patterns before a smuggling run, his own speculative combination of two separately confirmed details.

12:30. Berserker’s Leonida Keys chapter: the Wonder Whale, a giant roadside attraction, and an iguana crossing the street behind a scooter-riding tourist.

Berserker also points to the Rusty Anchor, a waterfront bar, as part of the marina-heavy heart of the Keys, and floats a popular fan theory that GTA 6 could open here, giving Rockstar a contained space to introduce driving, boating and Jason’s early criminal work before the story expands into the rest of Leonida. That is explicitly a theory he is repeating, not a confirmed detail about the story’s structure.

GTA 6 Vice City

Rockstar’s own panel: “Everything in Excess. We’re a long way from the ’80s, but Vice City is still the sun and fun capital of America. The glamour, hustle, and greed of America captured in a single city. Each neighborhood has something to offer, from the pastel art deco hotels and bright white sands of Ocean Beach, to the bustling panaderías of Little Cuba and the bootleg brands of the Tisha-Wocka flea market, out to the VC Port, the cruise ship capital of the world.” Berserker calls it a modern take on Miami and, visually, close to the opposite of Los Santos.

15:24. Berserker’s Vice City chapter: a giant hillside sign spelling “VICE”, not called out in his narration but visible in the footage.

Berserker names two downtown landmarks, the Sahara Arena (home to Vice City’s basketball team, which he compares to Miami’s Kaseya Center) and a neighboring Vice City Arts Center, though neither name is legible on screen in the frames checked for this article, so both stay his own identification. He calls Ocean Beach a direct stand-in for Miami’s Ocean Drive and South Beach, pointing to the Dominion and Ocean View Hotel as callbacks to Tommy Vercetti’s original safehouse.

16:54. Berserker’s Vice City chapter: the Electric Fang Tattoo shop, which he places in a Little Haiti-styled district he calls Lapel, a neighborhood name Rockstar has not confirmed on screen.

Berserker also covers Southside Vice City, home to the PTT Youngin$ gang, whose compound Jason and Lucia can raid in a mission already confirmed on the robberies page, and Boobie Ike, the local legend Rockstar’s own bio credits with a legitimate empire spanning real estate, the Jack of Hearts strip club, and a recording studio run with Dre’Quan Priest. Berserker guesses Ride Out Customs, a low-rider tuning shop, sits in a district called Stockyard given the area’s car culture, unconfirmed either way.

What is not confirmed yet

No official GTA 6 map size exists; Berserker’s “twice GTA 5” and “Vice City is two times larger than Los Santos” are both his own claims. Watson Bay is official, but its placement inside Grassrivers comes from Berserker’s chapter order, not an official source. The wildlife-enforcement agency’s full name and role, beyond the on-screen “OfficialPOACH” handle, is unconfirmed, and so is any hunting-to-fence economy. Erin Henshaw’s tie to Allied Crystal, her rival candidate’s name, and whether the election matters to the story remain open. The Final Chapter MC’s founding year is unconfirmed: Berserker says 1982, and the patch in his footage is too small to confirm it. “Gellhorn International Raceway,” “Draper Island,” “Air Ward Key,” the Sahara Arena, the Vice City Arts Center, “Lapel” and “Stockyard” are all Berserker’s own identifications, not names Rockstar has confirmed. Treat every one as a creator’s best reading of the footage ahead of November 19, 2026, and check the locations database for what has since been verified.

Questions & answers

Frequently asked

  1. Where is GTA 6 set?

    GTA 6 is set in Leonida, the state Rockstar calls home to “the neon-soaked streets of Vice City and beyond”. Rockstar’s own “Only in Leonida” site names six regions: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga. In his September 4, 2026 video, Berserker compares each one to a part of Florida, from the Keys to the Everglades.

  2. How big is the GTA 6 map?

    Rockstar has not published an official GTA 6 map size. Berserker says in his September 4, 2026 video that the map is twice the size of GTA 5’s and three times Red Dead Redemption 2’s, but that figure is his own claim: no trailer, screenshot or Rockstar statement gives a size.

  3. What are the six GTA 6 map regions?

    Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga, each with its own headline on Rockstar’s “Only in Leonida” site: Vice City is “Everything in Excess”, Leonida Keys is the “Gateway to Paradise”, Grassrivers is “Welcome to the Wetlands”, Port Gellhorn is told to “Live Hard”, Ambrosia is “Keeping Leonida Sweet”, and Mount Kalaga is “Wild, Wild Country”.

  4. Is GTA 6’s Vice City based on Miami?

    Berserker calls GTA 6’s Vice City “a modern take on Miami” and Ocean Beach Rockstar’s take on Miami’s Ocean Drive and South Beach; Rockstar itself does not name Miami. Its own panel calls Vice City “still the sun and fun capital of America” and names Ocean Beach, Little Cuba, the Tisha-Wocka flea market and the VC Port. Berserker also points to a district he calls Lapel, his own identification.

  5. What is Watson Bay in GTA 6?

    Watson Bay is a stilted waterfront town in GTA 6. Rockstar’s Ultimate Edition list stores the ’67 Vapid Dominator Buggy at the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay. Berserker’s Grassrivers chapter shows it as stilted buildings, a lodge, a two-story motel and a water tower, with the Vice City skyline across the water; Rockstar has not said which region it is in.

  6. Who is Erin Henshaw in GTA 6?

    Erin Henshaw is a mayoral candidate whose campaign signs appear in Berserker’s Ambrosia footage, reading “Vote Erin Henshaw” next to Allied Crystal-branded signage. Berserker’s own narration says “Aaron Henshaw”, but the printed signs on screen read “Erin”, and it is Berserker’s own guess, not a confirmed fact, that Allied Crystal is backing the campaign.

  7. What is the Final Chapter MC in GTA 6?

    The Final Chapter MC is a GTA 6 biker club whose vest patches, in Berserker’s Ambrosia footage, read “Final Chapter” over a skull emblem with “Ambrosia” on the bottom rocker. Berserker says the patches date the club to 1982, which is too small to read in his footage, and speculates it works as informal muscle for the Allied Crystal refinery; Rockstar has confirmed neither.
