A Reddit user has estimated the map size difference between Grand Theft Auto V and the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI, suggesting that the latter, set in Vice City, will be significantly larger. The user layered the coordinates of GTA V's map over the leaked footage of GTA VI's map, revealing a scaling difference of over 1,000 rage units in the Y direction and over 2,300 rage units in the X direction. The map's size could potentially extend even further, but without seeing the borders, it remains uncertain. The larger scale of the map could explain the delay in the announcement of GTA VI.
