GTA 6 teaser confirms map is way bigger than we expected

Fans have been preparing for a massive map since well before the GTA VI trailer dropped, however, it seems the map is bigger than first thought.

Months of speculation could finally be over this week, for a GTA VI second trailer teaser has appeared.

Yes, another one.

It could be more misplaced hype over nothing, but we predict a bumpy week ahead, regardless.

With all this gossip flying about, it makes sense then that attention has turned to the size of the new GTA map.

This isn’t the first time Rockstar Games fans have attempted to work out its size, and we’re certain it won’t be the last, either.

Roll up, roll up, it's time to watch the GTA VI to find more hidden details

On the GTA VI subreddit, user EliteFireBox highlighted an “interesting comparison” they’d discovered between GTA VI and GTA V.

By analysing both locations the game's are set in, one can determine the size of the map in the next instalment.

At least, that’s the theory the OP is working with.

Consequently, “GTA VI’s map will most likely be utilising the entire State of Leonida.”

For those unfamiliar with these locations, this is a long-winded way of explaining the increase in map size when compared with the previous game.

“That’s a great observation mate,” replied SimpleSammy21, “An entire state to explore definitely ramps up the excitement and immersion. It’ll be amazing to have a full map to dive into instead of just a region.”

Someone else remarked on how the boundaries of the GTA VI map are “almost invisible”, unlike in GTA V.

“Every scene in the trailer/leaks looks so wide that the boundaries are almost invisible, and the proportions of buildings and streets are very realistic unlike V. You can basically see the entire map in GTA V trailer,” Own_Invite_693 posted.

All indications point to a detailed, ambitious map that will have us exploring every nook and cranny.

It’s “great news”; now all we need is the second trailer to drop to make our week.
