The short answer
Grand Theft Auto VI is set in Leonida, a fictional state inspired by Florida. The headline location is a modern-day Vice City, but official materials confirm the map spans a whole state, including the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga.
Not the 1980s
Unlike the 2002 game, this Vice City is contemporary: smartphones, social media and modern traffic sit alongside the art deco skyline.
