Collector's box reveals Leonida's secret

GTA 6's most complete map yet has been revealed before the game even comes out. The image comes from the poster that came out of the expensive collector's box. However, in order to buy this poster physically, you need to pre-order the special $400 package.

As the release approached, parts of the province of Leonida were still unknown. The first clue came from a collector's box on display at a Selfridges store in Manchester. Although the poster was layered, it showed unannounced locations to the south, such as Goose Key. Then, a user named Tex2 shared almost the entire poster in an Instagram video that was later deleted.

Regions appearing on the map for the first time

Most of the regions and text on the map are readable, except for some outlying areas such as the Leonida Keys. To the north are places like Lummox County and Moreau. Further south, Pelican Valley in the Grassrivers region was also spotted for the first time.

Physical map only in collector's box

Those who want the physical map must pay $400 for Goodtime State – Vice City Collection. However, players were hoping that there would also be a map in the boxed copies printed for Xbox and PS5. In previous Rockstar games such as GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, the map came out of the box.

Rockstar will make a downloadable digital map available on or shortly after launch. Standard boxes contain the cover artwork and a double-sided poster with the previously seen Bikini Girl image.

Claim of $1 billion in pre-orders

Interest in the game is also at record levels. According to Sensor Tower's estimate, GTA 6 reached 10.31 million digital pre-orders on PlayStation and Xbox as of November 11; The monetary equivalent of this is approximately 1 billion dollars. This figure was 7.71 million copies on November 2. 7.73 million of the orders come from PlayStation and 2.58 million from Xbox. We mentioned the previous predictions in our pre-order news.

For comparison, GTA 5 made over $800 million in sales in the first 24 hours of its release in September 2013 and crossed the $1 billion threshold in three days. GTA 6, on the other hand, seems to have approached the same threshold before it even reaches the players' hands.

Pressure on community map project

It's thought that Take-Two or Rockstar is targeting the GTA 6 Mapping Project, where fans piece together the Leonida map from screenshots and trailers. It is stated that the project's Discord server has received a copyright infringement notification, but the website is still accessible. The project team also plans to examine the clues in the newly leaked poster.
