Grand Theft Auto V’s online community think they’ve discovered something that hints at GTA VI’s location, as the game’s new racing track has sparked rumors regarding Rockstar’s next installment of their most popular franchise.
After examining the topography of the “Height of Society” race track, which is one of several tracks released as part of Grand Theft Auto V’s Open Wheel DLC pack, players think that the geography matches that of both North and South America, which strengthens the rumor that the sixth game will return to Vice City. Additionally, fans think the sixth installment might be called GTA VI(CE) City.
“Rockstar appear to tease what looks like a map that includes Florida and Mexico in the latest GTA V racing DLC’s circuit packs,” said one player on Imgur. “Strengthening the rumours that GTA VI will be set in Vice City (Miami, Florida) and Southern American city/countries. GTA VI(CE) City seems like the title.”
You can take a look at a photo of the map below.

As of right now, it’s unclear when Rockstar Games, or anyone else for that matter, will be able to continue operating business as usual. For now, though, developers are instituting work from home policies for their employees, which might lead to several games and gaming hardware like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X getting delayed.
