Since the footage is of an early build of the game, these could just be temporary placeholders used by Rockstar Games during the development process. Nonetheless, this has verified many fans’ suspicions that the next game would be taking place in Vice City. Here’s some more information concerning this disclosure.

New GTA 6 leak reveals Vice City as the potential location of the game

I wonder why the GTA 6 main characters moved to Vice City and whether the weather influenced their decision. The leaks created more questions than they answered and I hope this is resolved in the upcoming trailer.

Fans were able to deduce the setting of the game by looking at the cop cars that sported the V.C.P.D (Vice City Police Department) initials.

Furthermore, players could also see that “Port Gellhorn” was written on the sides of the cop cars. Many fans assume that this will be some kind of port city that will also be featured in the game.

Some more locations that fans were able to get from the leaked videos are North Beaches, Lake Leonida, and Route 97. The monument of Leonida was also mentioned in the video, and this could be some kind of in-game statue that players may be able to visit. Most of the information about these locations was sourced from dialogue between characters featured in the videos.

Fans were also able to recognize Washington Beach from the leaks, which is a location prominently featured in Grand Theft Auto Vice City. Another town called Ekanfinaka was identified through a sign that was visible in the leaked gameplay footage.

Ocean Beach and South Beach were two other locations that fans were able to deduce from the leaked menus. The former was present in GTA Vice City, and the latter will likely be a new location that gets introduced in the upcoming game. A forest location called Red Hill Forest was also discovered from the menus.

Yorktown is another town that was found in the clips. Apart from this, a location that hosts racing activities, Hamlet, was also mentioned by many NPCs.

Finally, several fans attempted to decipher the name of another destination from a sign displayed in one of the leaked video clips. But because the visuals weren’t particularly clear, many fans were unable to verify the name. However, most fans believe that the sign read “Bocamar Bridge.”
