The place

The story takes place in Vice City, USA, inside the fictional state of Leonida. Rockstar sums it up with this line: “The darkest side of the sunniest place in America”.

What it means for you

  • Leonida is the state where all of Jason and Lucia’s plot unfolds: the criminal conspiracy in the story spans the whole state, not just the city.
  • Vice City is the name of the city that gives its title to official editions and packs, such as the Vintage Vice City Pack and The Vice City Collection.

What is not confirmed

The official page does not describe the map, its areas or its size. We do not make them up.

Once there is an official source (or we can verify it by playing), this guide will get a section on areas and exploration tips.

Where to see the setting

The official trailers and the launch screenshot gallery on Rockstar’s page are the best way to see it.
