What Rockstar confirms
Rockstar's official GTA VI page names Vice City and the state of Leonida. It describes Jason and Lucia moving through a criminal conspiracy across the state. That establishes the official setting, not the boundaries shown in a leaked image.
What Cyberleek-related posts claim
Reports describe a large map image presented as a broad view of Leonida. Because the files spread through reposts and screenshots, readers often see a compressed image separated from its original upload context.
How to assess a map leak
- Check whether the image appeared before the account claiming ownership.
- Compare only against official screenshots and trailers, not another rumor.
- Look for editing seams, inconsistent labels and mismatched scale.
- Do not treat a DMCA removal as proof of every label or route.
- Keep spoiler images out of thumbnails and social previews.
What the official Extended Look adds
Rockstar's August 27 Extended Look gives a current, rights-holder view of Leonida's world detail and the Jason/Lucia presentation. It is useful for checking broad visual claims, but it does not validate an anonymous map file or reveal its provenance.
Where the October return leaves the map question
The October upload was not a map drop. Reporting describes missions, races, shops, vehicle modification, first-person driving and developer tooling rather than cartography, so no new map evidence entered the record. This page's conclusion is unchanged: an image can be genuine, old, edited or stitched, and without provenance it proves only that an image exists.
What the map does not tell us
Even an authentic development map may not represent the launch layout. Areas, names and routes can change. For footage context, read the video authenticity file; for the release record, use Rockstar's official GTA VI page.
