11Ambrosia22Ambrosia is an industrial agricultural town in the center of Leonida. Rockstar's tagline for the region is "Keeping Leonida Sweet," and the subheading reads: "The battle for the health and wealth of Leonida begins here." The full official description states: "in the center of Leonida, American industry and old school values still reign supreme, whatever the cost. The Allied Crystal sugar refinery provides the jobs, while the local biker gang provides almost everything else."44Ambrosia is one of six confirmed major regions in Grand Theft Auto VI, alongside Vice Citythe Leonida KeysPort GellhornGrassrivers and Mount Kalaga National Park. It sits in Ambrosia County in the central-northeastern part of the state, on the southwestern bank of Lake Leonida.5+Ambrosia is one of six confirmed major regions in Grand Theft Auto VI, alongside Vice City the Leonida KeysPort GellhornGrassrivers and Mount Kalaga National Park. It sits in Ambrosia County in the central-northeastern part of the state, on the southwestern bank of Lake Leonida.66The Company Town88Ambrosia is a company town in the truest sense. One corporation controls the jobs. One gang controls everything else. Rockstar's description is specific about this power structure: Allied Crystal provides employment, and the Final Chapter MC fills in the gaps. There is no mention of any other significant employer or institution. The town exists because the refinery exists, and the refinery's workforce tolerates the biker gang because there is no alternative.1010This dynamic is reflected in the local politics. Official screenshots show campaign yard signs for a mayoral candidate named Erin Henshaw. Allied Crystal's logo appears directly on Henshaw's campaign signage, confirming that the sugar company does not just employ the town's workers; it also backs its politicians. The line between corporate power and political power in Ambrosia has been erased.1313Rockstar's phrase "whatever the cost" is doing significant work in the official description. It acknowledges that the "old school values" of Ambrosia come at a price. The question of who pays that price is the subtext of the entire region.1515Allied Crystal Sugar Refinery1717The Allied Crystal Sugar Refinery is the dominant industrial facility in Ambrosia and the economic backbone of the entire county. Official screenshots show a massive complex with industrial smokestacks, factory buildings, and globe-shaped structures that dominate the skyline. Smoke rises from the facility in multiple screenshots, and burning sugar cane fields are visible in the surrounding landscape.1919Sugar cane burning is a real agricultural practice still used in South Florida. Before harvest, farmers burn the outer leaves of sugar cane fields to make the stalks easier to cut and process. The fires produce thick black smoke that drifts across surrounding communities. In real life, this practice has drawn significant public health criticism from residents near Lake Okeechobee, who report respiratory issues during burn season. Rockstar's inclusion of burning fields in their Ambrosia screenshots is a pointed reference to this controversy.2121Allied Crystal also appears to have its own political operation. The company's logo on Erin Henshaw's campaign signs suggests Allied Crystal funds local elections to maintain favorable regulatory conditions. This mirrors real criticisms of U.S. Sugar's political influence in Florida, where the company has historically been one of the largest political donors in the state.2323Final Chapter MC2525The Final Chapter MC is an outlaw motorcycle club that controls Ambrosia's underground economy. Rockstar's official description refers to them only as "the local biker gang" without naming them in the promotional text. The "Final Chapter MC" name comes from patches visible on member clothing in trailer footage and official screenshots. According to their patches, the club was established in 1982.2727The Final Chapter MC has a confirmed clubhouse in Ambrosia. Their relationship with Allied Crystal defines the town: the refinery provides legal employment, and the MC provides the criminal infrastructure that fills every gap the company leaves open. This is not a hostile arrangement. The two powers coexist, with Allied Crystal controlling the legitimate economy and the Final Chapter MC controlling the illegitimate one.2929No specific named members of the Final Chapter MC have been officially revealed by Rockstar. The gang's role, visual identity, and territory are confirmed, but individual characters within the club remain unknown.3131Lake Leonida3333Lake Leonida is a large freshwater body in central Leonida. Ambrosia sits on the lake's southwestern bank. The lake occupies the geographic center of the state map and is the largest body of inland water in the playable area. Its real-world equivalent is Lake Okeechobee, which is the largest freshwater lake in Florida and the second-largest freshwater lake entirely within the contiguous United States (after Lake Michigan).3535In real life, the communities surrounding Lake Okeechobee are defined by the sugar industry. Clewiston, Belle Glade, Pahokee, and Moore Haven all depend on sugar agriculture and the processing facilities that employ their residents. Lake Leonida and its surrounding towns follow the same pattern.3838Environment4040Ambrosia is flat. The terrain is inland Florida agricultural land: sugar cane fields stretching to the horizon, industrial processing facilities, and small-town infrastructure connecting them. The landscape is not picturesque in the way that the Leonida Keys or Mount Kalaga are. It is working land, shaped by industry rather than nature.4242Official screenshots show wide-open agricultural terrain, industrial smokestacks against the sky, burning fields producing thick smoke, and small-town road infrastructure. American flags are visible on structures, strengthening the "American industry and old school values" theme. The overall aesthetic is rural, industrial, and flat, a sharp contrast to Vice City's vertical skyline and Grassrivers' flooded wilderness.4444A monster truck is visible in a parking lot in one official screenshot, suggesting Ambrosia hosts motorsport or off-road vehicle culture. Possible runway or airstrip infrastructure is also visible in official media.4646Confirmed Locations4848LocationTypeDetailsAllied Crystal Sugar RefineryIndustrial complexDominant employer; smokestacks, factory buildings, globe structuresFinal Chapter MC ClubhouseBiker gang headquartersHeadquarters of the outlaw motorcycle clubLake Leonida (shoreline)Freshwater lakeAmbrosia sits on the southwestern bankSugar cane fieldsAgricultural landBurning fields visible in official screenshots5050Characters5151CharacterRoleSourceErin HenshawMayoral candidate; campaign backed by Allied Crystal (logo on yard signs)Official screenshotsRaul BautistaSeasoned bank robber; his Rockstar character page links to "Explore Ambrosia"Rockstar official character page5353Raul Bautista's connection to Ambrosia is confirmed through the navigation structure on Rockstar's official GTA VI website, where his character page includes an "Explore Ambrosia" link. The exact nature of his relationship to the region has not been detailed. He is shown in a shootout alongside Jason and Lucia in trailer footage, but the location of that scene has not been definitively placed in Ambrosia.5555Real-World Inspiration5757GTA VI ElementReal-World EquivalentAmbrosia (overall)Clewiston, Florida ("America's Sweetest Town")Allied Crystal Sugar RefineryU.S. Sugar Mill & Refinery, ClewistonAmbrosia CountyHendry County, FloridaLake LeonidaLake OkeechobeeSugar cane burningControlled burns in the Everglades Agricultural AreaCorporate-political tiesU.S. Sugar's political donations in Florida5959The name "Ambrosia" itself is a nod to sweetness. In Greek mythology, ambrosia was the food of the gods, associated with honey and immortality. Rockstar chose a name that reinforces the sugar theme while carrying mythological weight: this is a place that calls itself sweet but operates on exploitation.6060's real-world comparison article noted that the Allied Crystal refinery's architecture closely resembles the U.S. Sugar facility in Clewiston. The Tab's comparison also identified Belle Glade and other Lake Okeechobee communities as secondary inspirations. Rockstar appears to have blended characteristics from multiple towns in the region rather than recreating any single location exactly.6262Position on the Leonida Map6464Ambrosia occupies the central-northeastern part of the Leonida map, inland from the coast. It sits east of Port Gellhornnorth of Grassrivers, west of Vice City, and south of Mount Kalaga National Park. Its position around Lake Leonida makes it the geographic heart of the state, surrounded by all other major regions.6666Getting to Ambrosia from Vice City requires crossing through either Grassrivers or taking inland highways. The region is not on the coast, not on an island, and not in the mountains. It is the interior: flat, hot, agricultural, and controlled by two overlapping power structures that do not answer to anyone outside their borders.
