The story

Two people, one easy score that goes wrong, and the sunniest state in America showing its darkest side. Jason and Lucia only have each other — and a conspiracy that stretches across all of Leonida.

Only in Leonida

Six places to know

01

Vice City

Neon nights, art deco hotels and the beachfront strip — the beating heart of Leonida.

Seems inspired by Miami
02

Leonida Keys

A chain of islands and long bridges over turquoise water, where boats move more than tourists.

Seems inspired by the Florida Keys
03

Grassrivers

Endless sawgrass swamps, airboats and wildlife — the wild south of the state.

Seems inspired by the Everglades
04

Port Gellhorn

A gritty Gulf-coast port town of cranes, warehouses and roadside motels.

Seems inspired by Florida’s Gulf coast
05

Ambrosia

Sugar-cane country around a huge inland lake, ruled by mills and farm roads.

Seems inspired by the Lake Okeechobee area
06

Mount Kalaga

Forested hills, rivers and springs — the state’s wild national park up north.

Seems inspired by North Florida’s parks

Leonida in 3D

Drag to spin, right-drag or Shift-drag to move, scroll or pinch to zoom, tap a pin to fly there. Switch to night to see the city light up.

🧭 3D

Illustrative fan map: original AI-painted art shaped after Florida, the real state Leonida is based on. It is not Rockstar’s map: the official printable map of Leonida comes out free on 19 November, and we’ll line our pins up with it then.
