What Rockstar says about Grassrivers

Rockstar bills Grassrivers as the untamed jewel of Leonida. It is an ancient-feeling wilderness where you never know what is under the water. Alligators are the well-known draw, but the official text hints at more dangerous predators and stranger finds hidden in the mangroves.^[1][2][3]

• The official copy says the gators are its most famous attraction, with deadlier things lurking in the mangroves.^[1][2]
• Trailer 1 includes a wetland sequence with an airboat speeding through the water.^[3][4]

Seen in the official videos

• An airboat racing across the wetlands with birds scattering (Trailer 1).
• Swamp and bayou chase imagery reported in Trailer 2 coverage.

Real-world inspiration

The Florida Everglades.^[5]

Grassrivers draws on the Everglades, a vast shallow "river of grass" in southern Florida known for airboats, alligators and protected wetland. Official material has shown airboats and alligators, which matches that inspiration.
