Verified overview
Vice City is the major urban destination at the center of Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto VI presentation. Rockstar places it in the state of Leonida and describes Leonida as extending beyond the city into several named regions. The official GTA VI story overview follows Jason and Lucia through a criminal conspiracy that reaches across the state.
Rockstar’s official location profile presents Vice City as a modern city shaped by glamour, hustle, and excess. This record covers the GTA VI location. It does not assume that every place or layout from the 2002 game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City returns unchanged.
Official city description and regional context
The official profile identifies several parts of Vice City’s character: pastel art deco hotels and the white sand of Ocean Beach, panaderías in Little Cuba, the Tisha-Wocka flea market, and the VC Port. Rockstar also calls attention to the port’s cruise-ship business. Together, those references establish a dense coastal city with tourism, commerce, neighborhoods, and working infrastructure.
These are named places or features in Rockstar’s presentation. They do not yet provide a complete street map, a boundary for every neighborhood, or proof that every visible building can be entered.
Known landmarks and areas
- Ocean Beach: officially associated with white sand and pastel art deco hotels.
- Little Cuba: a named neighborhood represented through its local panaderías.
- Tisha-Wocka flea market: an officially named market associated with imitation or bootleg brands.
- VC Port: a named port and cruise-ship hub in the official location profile.
The GTA 6 map guide explains how Vice City relates to the other confirmed Leonida regions. Use the interactive location explorer to move between those regional records without implying an unconfirmed scale.
Characters and businesses connected to Vice City

These links identify story and business context. They do not confirm that every mentioned business is player-owned, enterable, or part of a repeatable activity.
Official appearances and map evidence
Vice City appears throughout Rockstar’s GTA VI trailers and official screenshots. Rockstar also publishes a Vice City postcard in its artwork library and a dedicated destination profile. These materials are the primary visual evidence for the skyline, beaches, roads, neighborhoods, and waterfront shown so far.
Trailers and screenshots can confirm that a place or sign is shown, but they cannot establish exact travel times, full map boundaries, or the final availability of a gameplay activity. GGWaypoint avoids tracing a supposedly exact map from promotional frames alone.
What is confirmed
- Vice City is in the state of Leonida and is a central GTA VI setting.
- Ocean Beach, Little Cuba, Tisha-Wocka flea market, and VC Port are named in Rockstar’s location profile.
- The city includes tourism, nightlife, commercial, music, and port-related context in the official material.

What remains unknown
Rockstar has not published an exact city boundary, a complete street or interior list, confirmed travel times, the finished map scale, or a definitive list of player activities for every place shown. The relationship between the GTA VI city and every location from earlier versions of Vice City also remains incomplete. Those details will stay unverified until supported by a primary source or the released game.
