Grand Theft Auto VI's map is said to be significantly larger than its predecessors, according to reports from an exclusive showing at Rockstar North. A YouTuber who attended the event, TGG, shared details suggesting the game's map is twice the size of Grand Theft Auto V's and three times the size of Red Dead Redemption 2's.
Vice City itself is reportedly twice as large as Los Santos, and when combined with its surrounding suburbs, the playable area is estimated to be eleven times the size of Los Santos and its environs. This scale suggests a vast world that Rockstar could expand upon for years to come. The focus on the size of Vice City specifically is noteworthy, as the current iteration of Los Santos in Grand Theft Auto V has been described as feeling somewhat constrained in its ability to fully represent Los Angeles.
These revelations follow a recent high-profile showcase of GTA 6, including a trailer and gameplay details presented by Netflix. Information about the game's scope and mechanics continues to emerge as Rockstar North provides select media and content creators with early looks.
