Rockstar has not published an official area for Leonida. Developers call it their largest map, and reported interviews put it at roughly twice GTA V’s world and three times Red Dead Redemption 2’s.
| Claim | Who said it | Status |
|---|---|---|
| "It’s a big map, a very big map" | Rob Nelson to IGN | Reported quote |
| About 2× GTA V, about 3× RDR2 | Rob Nelson to YouTuber TGG | Reported |
| Vice City about 2× Los Santos | Rob Nelson to TGG | Reported |
| Cities and suburbs about 11× GTA V | Rob Nelson to Trois Couleurs | Reported |
| Nearly GTA IV + GTA V + RDR2 combined | Edge, October 2026 | Reported |
| Largest map "by some degree" | Aaron Garbut to Game Informer | Reported |
How to read these numbers
- Some claims count total world area, others count only built-up space such as cities and suburbs.
- Comparisons to GTA V and RDR2 are developer impressions, not survey measurements.
- Story missions reportedly guide you through much of the map, but not every corner.
