Sandbars
A named location in Leonida, briefly visible as a label on the official Leonida map poster in Rockstar's store image for the Goodtime State Vice City Collection. Rockstar updated the promotional image and removed the label before the location's position or contents were documented.
Sandbars is a location name that appeared on the Leonida map in the promotional image Rockstar posted when the Goodtime State Vice City Collection opened for pre-order on September 24 2026. Community members on X spotted and shared the label the same day, and Notebookcheck reported it on September 25. Alongside Sandbars, the image showed a second fully legible name, Crude Islands, and two further labels that were cut off by the frame edge. Rockstar updated the store image and removed all four labels while keeping the island shapes on the map.
Beyond the name itself, nothing is confirmed about Sandbars. Its position within Leonida, what county or region it sits in, whether it is an island, a beach, or a stretch of coastal terrain, and any role it plays in the story or in free roam are all unknown until launch. The physical map poster ships November 19 inside the collector's box.
