About Leonida Waypoint

Leonida Waypoint exists for a simple reason. When a game the size of GTA VI launches, the internet fills up within hours — with genuine discoveries, honest mistakes, recycled rumors and outright fakes all mixed together and all presented with the same confidence. Players who just want to know where something is, what an edition actually includes, or how much storage they really need end up wading through all of it. This site is the filter. We do the cross-checking once, carefully, so you do not have to do it on every page you open.

Grand Theft Auto VI launches on Thursday, November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, set in the state of Leonida, including Vice City, and following protagonists Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Leonida Waypoint launched ahead of the game with the material that can be honestly covered before release — preload timing, editions, storage and setup, and a launch hub — and with the shells of the two tools that matter most afterward: the interactive map and the 100% tracker. Gameplay content joins them from launch day onward, verified piece by piece as it is discovered.

What the site covers

Guides are the written core: step-by-step pages that answer one question completely. Pre-launch guides cover how and when to preload the game on each platform, what the Standard ($79.99) and Ultimate ($99.99) editions do and do not include — Rockstar has not published the full contents of the Ultimate edition, and we say so rather than filling the gap with guesses — and how to prepare roughly 250 GB of storage for an install that can run up to 212 GB. Every guide opens with a quick version that condenses the whole page to under a minute of reading, followed by the full detail, and step-based guides let you tick steps off as you go.

The interactive map pins collectibles, stunt jumps, hidden packages, stores and activities across Leonida, with search, category filters and mark-as-found tracking. Before launch its base is a fan-estimate map built by the community mapping effort, and its pins are clearly labeled demo placements. Verified pins replace them at launch under the verification rules below.

The 100% tracker breaks completion into checkable sections so you can see at a glance what is done and what is left. Its sections are honestly labeled while the real trophy and achievement list remains unpublished: nothing about trophies, collectible counts or completion requirements is invented to make the page look finished early.

How we verify

This is the section the whole site stands on, so it is worth stating in full.

Official sources come first. Before launch, and for anything Rockstar or the platform holders have actually announced, we work only from primary material: the Rockstar Newswire, the PlayStation Blog, Xbox Wire, and Take-Two Interactive's own releases, plus official support pages where a procedure is involved. If a fact cannot be traced to an official source in this phase, it does not go on the site as a fact. Every guide carries a "Last verified" date and a source list so you can check our working yourself.

After launch, the community becomes our lead source — and only a lead source. The fastest discoveries in a game like this come from players, and the GTA community is exceptionally good at this work. We watch Reddit closely, with r/GTA6 as the main hub — its megathreads are the community's own consolidation of discoveries and the first place we check for what has already been corroborated — alongside r/GTAVI as a parallel read, dataminer posts, and the mapping community that has been reconstructing Leonida since 2022. Established references such as the GTA Wiki and GTAForums sit in the same loop.

Here is the discipline that applies to all of it: a community post is treated as a lead, never as a sole source. Nothing that originates on Reddit, from a dataminer, or from any single community report is published on Leonida Waypoint until it has been cross-checked against a second independent source — a separate community report, an established guide or reference site, the GTA Wiki, or official material. One screenshot and one excited thread are a reason to go and check, not a reason to publish.

Leaked and datamined claims are held, or clearly labeled unconfirmed. Material from r/GTA6Leaks and similar channels is never presented as fact. Where a claim is newsworthy but unverified, the page itself says so in plain language, and the claim is either confirmed, corrected or removed as evidence arrives. The same labeling applies on the map, which keeps demo, unconfirmed and verified pins visibly distinct, following the mapping community's own confirmed-versus-speculative tradition.

Original posters are credited by name. When a find from a named Reddit user, forum poster or community contributor is used, that poster is credited by name in the guide's source list. Community knowledge is built by identifiable people doing careful work, and taking the find without the name is not something we do. Map versions and major guide updates get fresh "Last verified" dates so the record of what changed, and when, stays visible.

How this site gets built

Two phases, two different source rules. Before launch, official material only. After launch, a strict two-source verification loop that treats community finds as leads and credits the people who found them.

No accounts, no server tracking

Every interactive feature on this site — map found-state, checklist ticks, step progress and the 100% tracker — saves in your browser's local storage, on your own device, and nowhere else. There is no account to create, no sign-in, and no server copy of your progress, which means your completion data cannot be leaked, sold or tied to your identity, because we never hold it. It also means progress does not sync between devices, and clearing your browser data clears your progress. Every surface that stores state carries a reset control so you can wipe it yourself at any time. Rockstar offers no public way for any website to link to a player's game account, so any site claiming automatic progress sync from your game should be treated with suspicion.

Install the app

Leonida Waypoint works as an installable app: the interactive map and your 100% tracker one tap from your home screen, no app store, no account. This site has no pop-ups, so nothing will ever offer this to you unasked. The button below is the install path, and it is also in the footer of every page. On Chrome and Edge it opens your browser's real one-tap install prompt. On iPhone and in other browsers, the same button opens a short guide with the manual steps, because those browsers give web pages no install prompt to offer.

If you are reading this inside the installed app, the button hides itself: you are already there.

Corrections

Verification reduces errors; it does not make a site infallible, especially in launch week when information moves hourly. If you spot something wrong — a moved pin, a wrong time, an edition detail that has been clarified since we last checked — write to contact@leonidawaypoint.com with the page, the claim and, if you have it, a source. Corrections sent with a source are checked against the same two-source rule and fixed openly, with the page's verified date updated. Tips about new discoveries are welcome at the same address, are verified before use, and are credited to the finder where a find is used. See the Contact page for what to include.
