A GTA 6 map leak has surfaced a week before launch. Photos of the printed Leonida map from Rockstar’s Collector’s Box are circulating online, and they reportedly show areas fans didn’t know about.
Rockstar hasn’t shared the map publicly, and standard physical copies of GTA 6 don’t include a printed one. Insider Gaming reports that the images are circulating and reveal “some areas we previously didn’t know about.” Nothing in them is confirmed.
What the map shows
Beebom counted “five major counties, 11 islands and keys, 13 towns and cities, and nine other named locations, including Grassrivers” on the leaked poster. It says the map “looks massive compared to previous GTA games”, with plenty of ground for Jason and Lucia to cover.
Vice City is there, of course, but the new names are the draw. Notebookcheck spotted Lummox County in the north, Moreau, and Pelican Valley in Grassrivers further south, as well as Goose Key in the southern section. Beebom adds Port Gellhorn and Ambrosia. Apart from some edges, such as the Leonida Keys, Notebookcheck says most regions and labels are visible.
The poster uses colour to mark the land: red for urban areas, yellow and orange for countryside, and green for wilderness, nature reserves, and zoos, according to egw.news.
Don’t treat the image as a satellite view, though. VGC’s report puts it this way:
Pictures coming out of the GTA 6 collection at Selfridges in London, England, show what appears to be a stylised version of the map used in GTA 6.

Insider Gaming goes further: “It’s not an accurate replication of the in-game map, most likely, but it’s what we have.” ComicBook also says the entire map hasn’t leaked, only a part of it.
How it leaked
The first photo came from X user @GazzaMontana, who snapped the box on display at the Selfridges store in Manchester’s Exchange Square. His post noted that the store had the Collectors Set on display with the map folded up inside it. He wrote that “this means somebody who works there has seen it fully”.
VGC reports that the clearest image reportedly came from an Instagram account that has since been deleted. Insider Gaming says someone has claimed the image came from a Selfridges employee, but nobody has confirmed it. Selfridges hosted a GTA 6 takeover in partnership with Rockstar, and VGC says Selfridges doesn’t sell the box; it “appears to have simply been a display item.” RockstarINTEL’s sources, however, say the Manchester store had one box on sale and has since sold it.
A second stylised map is also circulating, and some fans think it’s the other side of the poster. VGC says it doesn’t have any other sources sharing that image, so it’s unconfirmed. Tbreak’s report on the box says the other side carries Macca the Gator artwork, but Beebom says that side hasn’t appeared in the leak yet.
What’s in the Collector’s Box
The poster is one of 11 items in Rockstar’s Goodtime State – Vice City Collection, which costs $399.99 in the US and £349.99 in the UK. It’s merchandise, not a game edition, so buyers still need GTA 6 itself. The set also includes a six-inch Macca the Gator figure, Oakley Frogskins sunglasses, a New Era 9FORTY A-Frame hat, and a Leonida Keys crossbody bag. It will ship from 19 November 2026.
Players who skip the box won’t miss out for long. Notebookcheck says Rockstar will make a downloadable digital map available on or shortly after release day.
Another leak in a long line
VGC puts the map in context:
This all adds to what has been a marketing campaign full of leaks from start to finish.

VGC says the worst came from Cyberleek, which seemingly got hold of a playable build months before release and shared gameplay before Rockstar’s Netflix reveal. Cyberleek has since called off its full-build release.
GTA 6 will launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on 19 November, unlocking at 12am GST in the UAE. On the UAE PlayStation Store, the game costs AED 299.16 for Standard and AED 373.96 for Ultimate, and pre-loading opened on 10 November. In a week, players can check the leaked poster against the real Leonida.
