Someone created an unofficial GTA 6 map in GTA 5, and it's intriguing

Grand Theft Auto YouTuber, Dark Space, has uploaded a new video on his channel showcasing a supposed 3D model of the GTA 6 map. It should be noted that this is a speculated/unofficial map and is based on the fan-led GTA 6 mapping project, that utilizes footage from the first official trailer, as well as the September 2022 development clips leak to predict what the upcoming title might look like.

However, it is still quite intriguing and pretty detailed considering it is just a fan-made 3D model. Later in the video, Dark Space even does a size comparison with GTA 5's map by having the model imported into the game.

YouTuber Dark Space showcases a 3D model of the GTA 6 map (unofficial)

Grand Theft Auto 6 will take place in a fictional state named Leonida, featuring Vice City, but Rockstar Games hasn't revealed its layout yet.

Nevertheless, several fans have been working on a mapping project trying to figure out what it might end up looking like, and Dark Space, a YouTuber, used that (along with trailer footage) to create a 3D model of this speculated GTA 6 map, showing it off in his video titled "I made GTA 6 before GTA 6."

The YouTuber even populated the 3D model with cars and NPCs, making it look pretty intriguing, to say the least. Furthermore, with the help of a group named The Ambitioneers, known for making GTA 5 map expansion mods, Dark Space was able to import the model into GTA 5, allowing for a scale comparison.

For this, he used the same helicopter to travel between the southernmost and the northernmost points of both maps. The travel time was 3 minutes 30 seconds in the GTA 5 map, and 6 minutes 10 seconds in the speculated GTA 6 map.

That being said, readers are once again reminded that this fan-made map model (and even the mapping project) is unofficial. Rockstar has yet to showcase what Leonida will look like as of this writing. Naturally, fans expect to see more of it in future trailers, but there has been no indication of when the next trailer might drop.
