## Key points

- GTA 6’s map nearly matches three other games’ maps combined.
- Rockstar says it has far more interiors than earlier entries.
- Developers say the detailed world still holds undiscovered places.

## Summary

Rockstar says GTA 6’s playable land area, including Vice City and its surroundings, is almost as large as the maps in GTA 4, GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 combined. The scale matters because the developers say the world is also unusually detailed, with many more interiors and carefully designed locations.

Development head Aaron Garbut says GTA 6 has “an order of magnitude more interiors” than older Grand Theft Auto games, and that he is still finding places he has not seen before. The article gives no precise area measurement; it notes that players will have to wait for the game’s release to explore the map, and that some fans are surprised it is designed for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
