Get ready to dive into the gritty underworld of Vice City with the full lineup of Grand Theft Auto 6 characters now confirmed. From the fierce and determined Lucia Caminos, the franchise’s first modern female protagonist, to her partner Jason Duval, a man haunted by his past and desperate for a fresh start, these characters promise a story packed with crime, loyalty, and danger. Alongside them, a colorful cast of allies and foes like Cal Hampton, Boobie Ike, and Raul Bautista bring the city’s vibrant chaos to life. Discover who you’ll be working with-or against-in Rockstar’s most ambitious GTA yet.
You’ll play as both Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, two romantic partners looking for a better life. But the rest of the cast also appears charmingly offbeat in typical Grand Theft Auto fashion, including a crime magnate, a drug runner, and a conspiracy theorist. Developer Rockstar Games has not shared the official voice cast yet, although some sharp-eared observers have pointed out that Brian Heder sure sounds a like like notable “oh hey it’s that guy” actor Stephen Root (Veep, Barry).
Here are all confirmed characters in GTA 6 so far, replete with high-res screenshots and official character descriptions from Rockstar Games.
Jason Duval (main character)
Jason Duval is one of the two main protagonists of Grand Theft Auto VI, portrayed as a former Army soldier who grew up surrounded by criminals and hustlers in the Florida Keys. After his military service, he returned to the drug trade, working for local dealers in Leonida Keys. Jason seeks an easier life but finds himself continually pulled back into crime. His story takes a pivotal turn when he meets Lucia Caminos, his romantic partner and partner in crime, forming a modern-day outlaw duo reminiscent of Bonnie and Clyde. Jason is known for his street smarts, combat skills, and ability to navigate the dangerous underworld of Vice City, making him a complex and compelling character in the GTA universe.
“Jason wants an easy life, but things just keep getting harder. Jason grew up around grifters and crooks. After a stint in the Army trying to shake off his troubled teens, he found himself in the Keys doing what he knows best, working for local drug runners. It might be time to try something new. Meeting Lucia could be the best or worst thing to ever happen to him. Jason knows how he’d like it to turn out but right now, it’s hard to tell.”
Lucia Caminos (main character)
Lucia Caminos is one of the two main protagonists of Grand Theft Auto VI, sharing the spotlight with Jason Duval. Raised in Liberty City, she endured a harsh upbringing where her father trained her to fight from a very young age, shaping her into a tough and disciplined fighter. Her loyalty to family led her into trouble, landing her in Leonida Penitentiary, from which she was released by sheer luck. Determined to change her fate, Lucia is committed to making smart moves and pursuing a better life, driven by the dreams her mother once had for their family. Alongside Jason, she forms a criminal partnership reminiscent of Bonnie and Clyde, ready to take control of her future through calculated and daring actions in the dangerous world of Vice City.
“Lucia’s father taught her to fight as soon as she could walk. Life has been coming at her swinging ever since. Fighting for her family landed her in the Leonida Penitentiary. Sheer luck got her out. Lucia’s learned her lesson – only smart moves from here. More than anything, Lucia wants the good life her mom has dreamed of since their days in Liberty City – but instead of half-baked fantasies, Lucia is prepared to take matters into her own hands. Fresh out of prison and ready to change the odds in her favor, Lucia’s committed to her plan – no matter what it takes.”
Cal Hampton
Cal Hampton is a supporting character in Grand Theft Auto 6, known as a friend of Jason Duval and an associate of Brian Heder. He embodies a laid-back, conspiracy-theorist persona, often found at home monitoring Coast Guard communications with beers and private browser tabs open. Cal represents the “low tide of America,” content with his casual paranoia and technical skills, reminiscent of a mix between GTA 5’s Jimmy De Santa and Lester Crest. His role likely involves assisting the main characters with tech-oriented tasks, continuing the series tradition of the hacker ally, but with a more relaxed and quirky personality that reflects modern internet culture.
“Jason’s friend and a fellow associate of Brian’s, Cal feels safest hanging at home, snooping on Coast Guard comms with a few beers and some private browser tabs open. Cal is at the low tide of America and happy there. Casual paranoia loves company, but his friend Jason has bigger plans.”
Boobie Ike
Boobie Ike is a prominent character in GTA 6, known as a local Vice City legend who has successfully transformed his street hustle into a legitimate business empire. His ventures include real estate, a strip club called the Jack of Hearts, and a recording studio. Boobie is charismatic and always smiling, but turns serious when it comes to business. He is deeply invested in his partnership with Dre’Quan Priest, a young aspiring music mogul, as they work together to make their label, Only Raw Records, a hit. Boobie represents the blend of street smarts and entrepreneurial ambition, aiming not just for money but for a lasting legacy in Vice City’s music scene.
“Boobie is a local Vice City legend – and acts like it. One of the few to transform his time in the streets into a legitimate empire spanning real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio – Boobie’s all smiles until it’s time to talk business. Boobie might seem like he’s just out for himself, but it’s his partnership with the young aspiring music mogul Dre’Quan for Only Raw Records that he’s most invested in – now they just need a hit.”
Dre’Quan Priest
Dre’Quan Priest is a key supporting character in Grand Theft Auto VI, known for being more of a hustler than a gangster. His ultimate ambition is to break into the music industry, and he has recently signed the rap group Real Dimez to his label, Only Raw. Records. Previously, Dre’Quan made ends meet by dealing on the streets, but now he aims to elevate his status by moving beyond booking acts at Boobie Ike’s strip club and making a name for himself in the Vice City music scene. His partnership with Boobie Ike, a local legend with a criminal empire, positions Dre’Quan at the intersection of music and the city’s underworld, highlighting his drive to achieve success and luxury through his entrepreneurial hustle.
“Dre’Quan was always more of a hustler than a gangster. Even when he was dealing on the streets to make ends meet, breaking into music was the goal. Now that he’s signed the Real Dimez, Dre’Quan’s days of booking acts into Boobie’s strip club might be numbered as he sets his sights on the Vice City scene.”
Brian Heder
Brian Heder is a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Florida Keys, now operating through his boat yard alongside his third wife, Lori. He has been in the business long enough to delegate the dirty work to others, notably allowing the protagonist Jason Duval to live rent-free in one of his properties in exchange for help with local shakedowns. Brian is a respected and influential figure in Vice City’s criminal underworld, running his drug operations from a legitimate front, Brian’s Boat Works and Marina. His character embodies the old-school smuggler archetype, combining a laid-back beach bum appearance with a ruthless and strategic mind behind the scenes.
“Brian’s a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Keys. Still moving product through his boat yard with his third wife, Lori, Brian’s been around long enough to let others do his dirty work. Brian’s letting Jason live rent-free at one of his properties – so long as he helps with local shakedowns, and stops by for Lori’s sangria once in a while.”
Raul Batista
Raul Batista is a seasoned bank robber and the heist mastermind in GTA 6, known for his confidence, charm, and cunning. He thrives on high-stakes chaos, constantly pushing the limits with daring robberies and always on the lookout for fresh talent to join his risky ventures. Raul’s reckless yet calculated approach to crime makes him a central figure in the game’s narrative, deeply influencing the dynamics with protagonists Jason and Lucia. His cultural background, hinted by subtle details like a Cuban flag, adds depth to his character, making him more than just a criminal but a complex leader shaping Leonida’s underworld.
“Confidence, charm, and cunning – Raul’s a seasoned bank robber always on the hunt for talent ready to take the risks that bring the biggest rewards. Raul’s recklessness raises the stakes with every score. Sooner or later, his crew will have to double down or pull their chips from the table.”
Real Dimez
Real Dimez is a rap duo featured in GTA 6, consisting of longtime friends Bae-Luxe and Roxy. They rose from hustling on the streets to gaining fame through catchy rap songs and a strong social media presence. Their breakthrough came with a hit single alongside local rapper DWNPLY, which propelled them into the spotlight. Despite facing legal troubles and a stalled career after five years, they are now signed to Only Raw Records, aiming to recapture their former success and solidify their place in the music industry. Their characters bring a fresh dynamic to GTA 6’s depiction of Vice City’s vibrant hip-hop scene, reflecting themes of ambition, loyalty, and the challenges of fame.
“Bae-Luxe and Roxy aka Real Dimez have been friends since high school – girls with the savvy to turn their time shaking down local dealers into cold, hard cash via spicy rap tracks and a relentless social media presence. An early hit single with local rapper DWNPLY took Real Dimez to new heights. Now, after five years and a whole lot of trouble, they’re signed to Only Raw Records, hoping lightning can strike twice.”
