Following the September 2022 leaks, one of the most discussed topics in the gaming community was the GTA 6 map leak. While the earlier leaks provided a sneak peek into the upcoming game, the alleged map leaks supposedly disclosed the vastness of the new open world.
Although Rockstar Games has not confirmed the authenticity of the leaked map, many believe it will be incorporated into the much-awaited game.
Attentive fans have unearthed various new pieces of information from the leaked map and proposed numerous fan-made theories. Most of these theories align with leaked videos, which could lead players to place more faith in them. This piece compiles five findings that were uncovered in the latest GTA 6 map leak.

5 things that the recent GTA 6 map leak reveals about the upcoming game
1) Return to Vice City
Following the September 2022 leaks and the recent alleged map leak, it appears that the next installment of Grand Theft Auto will revisit Vice City once again. The last time players explored Vice City was in the 3D Universe, so fans are eagerly anticipating how Rockstar Games has envisioned it in the HD Universe.
Vice City, which is modeled after the city of Miami, has been depicted in the leaked GTA 6 videos through various features such as buildings, non-playable characters, and streets. Using this information, fans have created an unofficial map for the upcoming game that includes many of the iconic locations from the original Vice City map.
2) Inclusion of old Vice City map
Despite the fact that the leaked GTA 6 map diverges from the typical open-world maps seen in previous installments, it does include a section of the original Vice City map. The recognizable Vice City Beach Island and Starfish Island can be observed on the right side of the map, while the Vice City Mainland island has expanded into a larger landmass.
Rockstar Games has previously incorporated locations from the 3D Universe into HD Universe maps in both Grand Theft Auto 4 and GTA 5. These inclusions served as homages to their original games, and fans are anticipating a similar nod to the past in the forthcoming GTA 6 game.

3) Bigger map than Los Santos
The upcoming Grand Theft Auto game is one of Rockstar’s most ambitious projects yet, and players are anticipating a bigger map than ever before. Interestingly, the leaked map seems to confirm this speculation, as it features a vast landmass surrounded by numerous small islands. Fans have even compared the leaked map to the current map of Los Santos and found that the GTA 6 map is nearly twice the size.
Fans are eagerly anticipating a larger map in the upcoming Grand Theft Auto game, as the current map is already considered vast and packed with features. Rockstar is renowned for creating exceptional open-world maps in GTA games, and a bigger map would likely offer even more areas to explore. This would be a highly anticipated addition to the game.
4) Inclusion of multiple cities
Unlike Grand Theft Auto 5, which was criticized for featuring only one island, leaks of the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 game suggest that it will include multiple cities. The community has been buzzing about cities such as York Town, Red Hill, and Port Gelhorn, which are rumored to be included in the game.
Due to the fact that the original Vice City game had two major cities, fans have expressed a desire for Rockstar to include more locations in the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 game to enhance its immersion. However, there have been rumors circulating that new locations may only be included in Story-Mode DLCs that will be released at a later time.
5) Expandable map
According to the alleged GTA 6 map leak, the upcoming game will feature expandable maps that will be released at a later point in the game’s timeline. While most fans anticipate that these expansions will occur in the single-player mode, Rockstar may decide to make them exclusive to the multiplayer mode.
Furthermore, several insiders have disclosed that the developers are planning to remove content from the game and release it as DLCs. While some fans believe that these DLCs will expand the original map by including new locations, others speculate that new islands such as the Caribbean Islands and other areas will be added.
