The Google Maps of GTA 6 – fan project lets you see around the huge open world location in Grand Theft Auto VI
Planning a trip around Vice City and Leonida? Here's a handy interactive guide
Quick Summary
GTA 6 will be released on 19 November 2026, but in the meantime you can interact with an online map of the game's open world.
Built using information gleaned from screenshots and rumours, the project reveals an enormous playing area if it turns out to be accurate.
Although the pre-order process is well underway, we still have months to wait before Grand Theft Auto VI actually arrives. It'll be released on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on Thursday 19 November, and if you're anything like us, we're struggling to contain our excitement.
However, you can get yourself prepared in the meantime. Not only are there plenty of official screenshots and a couple of trailers online, a community project has popped up to give us a virtual tour around Leonida, including Vice City and the other confirmed and rumoured areas of the game.
We're apparently getting the largest open world setting seen in a GTA game yet – at least according to a listing accidentally posted on Amazon's Brazilian site. And you can scroll around it, Google Maps style on an interactive website.
There are pins where it's believed each of the release game screens are taken from, while additional information has been gleaned from leaks and other art.
Of course, Leonida is loosely based on Florida, including its own Keys area, while Vice City is Miami – and there are nods to some real-world photos for comparison.
It's a truly impressive project and if the game does indeed allow you to travel the length and breadth of the map on show, it will indeed be huge. Let's hope so.
Back to the Amazon leak and the listing also revealed (via VGC) that there will be dynamic weather conditions and, perhaps most excitingly, an in-game social network to "watch viral videos, follow influencers, and discover world events".
NPCs will also reportedly have their own lives – navigating their our routines and random events around you.
Hopefully we'll find out a bit more soon, with a third game trailer thought to be on its way. You'll have to make do with the map for now though, and check out the pre-order details if you haven't have managed to place yours yet.
