GTA 6 Map Is Apparently 3 Times Larger Than Red Dead Redemption 2's, Twice as Large as GTA 5's
Summary
Rockstar Games recently invited a select group of YouTubers and streamers for an exclusive first look at Grand Theft Auto VI, sparking widespread discussion. Among them, YouTuber TGG revealed that he visited Rockstar North and watched three hours of gameplay. During a Q&A, Rockstar developers reportedly confirmed the map size: GTA VI's map will be three times larger than Red Dead Redemption 2's and twice as large as GTA V's. While exact square mileage wasn't disclosed, comparing with GTA V's roughly 50 square miles (129 sq km) suggests the new map could exceed 100 square miles (260 sq km), making it Rockstar's largest open world ever. For players, this promises a vast playground with diverse environments—from urban areas to countryside, deserts, and mountains—plus more vehicles and missions. It also raises expectations for faster travel and optimized performance on current consoles. For the industry, it demonstrates Rockstar's continued ambition in open-world design and sets a new benchmark for scale in AAA games. Although this information comes from an invited creator rather than an official statement, it aligns with earlier leaks and renders the claim highly credible. As marketing ramps up, more details about GTA VI's world and gameplay are expected to surface.
