GTA 6 character names: the official eight
| Character | Official role in one line |
|---|---|
| Jason Duval | Lead. Grew up around grifters, served in the Army, now works for drug runners in the Keys |
| Lucia Caminos | Lead. Out of the Leonida Penitentiary and committed to her plan |
| Cal Hampton | Jason’s friend, an associate of Brian’s, listens in on Coast Guard comms |
| Brian Heder | Veteran drug runner in the Keys, Jason’s landlord |
| Boobie Ike | Vice City legend with real estate, a strip club and a recording studio |
| Dre’Quan Priest | Aspiring music mogul, Boobie’s partner in Only Raw Records |
| Real Dimez | Rap duo Bae-Luxe and Roxy, signed to Only Raw Records |
| Raul Bautista | Seasoned bank robber looking for talent |
Rockstar has presented exactly these eight so far. Which other characters appear in the game has not been officially announced, so we do not list any other names.
Jason and Lucia
The story centers on the two leads. Rockstar’s official summary: Jason and Lucia “have always known the deck is stacked against them”, and when an easy score goes wrong they end up on “the darkest side of the sunniest place in America”, in a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida. Their profiles mirror each other: meeting Lucia “could be the best or worst thing to ever happen” to Jason, and “a life with Jason could be her way out.” Details, quotes and trailer scenes with timestamps are on the pages for Jason and Lucia.
How the GTA 6 characters connect
Read together, the official profiles form three groups. This grouping is ours, but every link in it comes from Rockstar’s text.
The Keys circle around Jason. Brian Heder lets Jason live rent-free at one of his properties, as long as Jason helps with local shakedowns. Cal Hampton is described as “Jason’s friend and a fellow associate of Brian’s“. Trailer 2 opens with Jason and Brian, which makes this the first relationship the game shows on screen.
The Only Raw Records circle in Vice City. Boobie Ike has turned his time in the streets into a legitimate empire, but the project he is most invested in is his partnership with Dre’Quan Priest for Only Raw Records. Dre’Quan, in turn, has just signed Real Dimez, the duo of Bae-Luxe and Roxy, who are hoping for a second hit. Three of the eight official characters are therefore tied to one record label.
Raul Bautista stands apart. His profile does not name any other character. He is a bank robber “always on the hunt for talent ready to take the risks”, and his recklessness “raises the stakes with every score”. Whether Jason and Lucia are the talent he is looking for has not been confirmed.
Our reading: Rockstar has not explained how the Keys circle, the music world and Raul meet in the story. The official summary only says the conspiracy stretches across all of Leonida. Anything beyond that is speculation, and we leave it out.
How many characters are in GTA 6?
Officially presented: eight. Two of them, Jason and Lucia, are the leads. Rockstar has not given a total number of characters, missions or story contacts. We will update this hub after launch with verified in-game information.
Supporting characters
The six supporting characters each have a short official profile with one or two quotes. That is not enough material for honest standalone pages yet, so we cover them together on our supporting cast page, with every official detail, quote and relationship. Locations from the profiles, like the Keys and Vice City, are linked from there to our Leonida locations.
What is not confirmed
Rockstar has not officially named any voice or performance actors for GTA 6. Ages, playable status of anyone other than Jason and Lucia, and how switching between the two leads works have not been officially detailed either. For a broader overview see everything we know about GTA 6.
