The metropolis
Vice City
Leonida's neon coastal city and the centre of the game's marketing since the first trailer — high-rises, beachfront strips and traffic that never stops.

Read the breakdown →The state of Leonida
Rockstar has released official postcard artwork for six places across the state. Outside Vice City itself, that artwork is the only first-party look at Leonida there is — collected here in one place.
The island chain
Leonida Keys
A string of low islands off the southern coast, shown as shallow turquoise water, causeways and boats rather than city blocks.
The wetlands
Grassrivers
Sawgrass, waterways and airboat country. The official postcard sells it as an eco-tourism destination — which, in a GTA game, rarely stays that way.
The high country
Mount Kalaga National Park
Forested hills and hiking-trail signage in the north of the state — the closest thing Leonida has to wilderness in Rockstar's own artwork.
The faded resort
Port Gellhorn
A weathered coastal town of motels, boardwalk signage and off-season quiet, painted in the style of a 1970s holiday brochure.
Inland Leonida
Ambrosia
Rural, agricultural and far from the beach — the postcard leans on open land and small-town Americana instead of skyline.
