According to the new Bloomberg leaks, the launch version of GTA 6 will start in a Miami-inspired city, possibly Vice City in a different time period. Returning to one of the most popular locations in GTA history would be cool, but this information prompts another question – will new cities be added later? According to the leaks, yes, new cities and missions are planned to be added regularly. Could this mean a possible episodic format, or at least regular big DLC expansions?

GTA 6 will take place in Vice City
GTA 6 will take place in Vice City and will feature other locations such as Port Gellhorn, Yorktown, etc.
GTA 6 will likely have 2 major cities – Vice City & Port Gellhorn.
Port Gellhorn’s police force could be seen in the leaked footage meaning it will be a fairly large location – much bigger than Paleto Bay.#GTAVI #GTA6 #RockstarGames pic.twitter.com/G60Q9eRK3F

Gaming Detective posted the above tweet, highlighting two major cities discovered from the leaked footage. It was considerably easier to confirm Vice City in comparison to Port Gellhorn because fans could simply match locations from leaked footage to areas from GTA Vice City.
Another factor to note here is that Vice City in the upcoming title looks quite different from its previous iteration as GTA 6’s Vice City seems to be based on contemporary times.
To identify Port Gellhorn, fans had to do a fair amount of digging, such as looking at the initials on police cars featured in the leaked videos, and, according to Gaming Detective, Port Gellhorn is expected to be much larger than Paleto Bay, a prominent location featured in GTA 5.
In any case, these two cities currently have the highest chances of being in the final game whenever it is officially released.
