Miami-Dade County officials have raised objections to plans for Grand Theft Auto 6 to depict the region’s airport as a key location in the game’s fictional Vice City. The pushback comes as Rockstar Games continues developing the open-world title, which draws heavy inspiration from South Florida. Details of the county’s concerns remain unspecified, but the dispute underscores growing tensions between the studio and local authorities over the game’s portrayal of real-world locations. The Nov. 19, 2026 launch date remains unchanged, though the outcome of the debate could shape how Vice City’s landmarks are finalized, directly impacting players’ expectations for the game’s authenticity and scale.
