Recent updates

September 8, 2025: It's been radio silence from Rockstar since the second GTA 6 trailer dropped in May but we've gone through to highlight more from the official site and takeaways from both trailers on every GTA 6 character confirmed so far.

Grand Theft Auto 6 may have been delayed until May 2026, but Rockstar blessed us with a ton of new info on Vice City's residents with some very aesthetically pleasing official bios to hold us over through the wait.

We finally have official Trailer Recognition of Jason's name—it wasn't actually spoken in the first trailer, with his moniker instead coming from leaks and rumours. We still don't know a whole lot about him, Lucia, and the colourful cast of side characters, but Rockstar certainly gave us more background information to work with.

Which characters are confirmed to be in GTA 6? 

One character we didn't see making a reappearance is Lucia's correctional social worker who, based off excellent detective work (looking at her nameplate in the trailer) is named Stefanie.

Hopefully we'll get to see more of her later, but for now here are all the characters confirmed to be in Grand Theft Auto 6 so far, as well as what we know about each one:

  • Lucia Caminos: One half of the protagonist duo
  • Jason Duval: Lucia's partner, and our second protagonist
  • Cal Hampton: Jason's buddy
  • Boobie Ike: Business entrepreneur
  • Dre'Quan Priest: Music mogul
  • Real Dimez: Rap duo and social media sensations
  • Raul Batista: Seasoned bank robber with a relentless streak
  • Brian Heder: Landlord and veteran drug smuggler
  • Lucia's corrections counsellor: Seemingly named Stefanie, judging by her desk's nameplate

Lucia serves as one of Grand Theft Auto 6's primary protagonists—and the first female protagonist in the series—being given most of the screen time in the first trailer and appearing frequently in the second. Born in Liberty City, it's currently unknown when or how she ended up in Vice City.

According to Rockstar, her father taught her how to hold herself in a fight when she was young, a skill which has no doubt come in handy in adulthood.

It seems trying to provide a good life for her family is what ended her up in prison, with "sheer luck" being what gets her out at the beginning of the game, according to her official bio.

She's romantically linked to fellow protagonist Jason Duval, though the extent of their relationship is currently unknown. It seems like the two are fairly comfortable with each other though, both on the streets and in the sheets.

Jason is the second half of Grand Theft Auto 6's protagonist duo, and appears to be both Lucia's romantic and criminal partner.

His childhood was one enveloped in criminal activity, before joining the army in an attempt to shake off his sordid past. That didn't seem to work, though, as he's been busy working for drug runners in Vice City for an unknown amount of time.

As we see in the second trailer, he's the one who collects Lucia after she's released from prison, and it doesn't take the two long to get all smooshy with each other.

Whether their relationship precedes prison or started while she was in there is still a mystery, but the two do seem mighty comfortable in a way I'd expect a couple in a long-term relationship to be.

The two are also seen committing a string of crimes together, and supporting each other along the way.

Cal Hampton

We don't know much about Cal right now, apart from the fact that he's friends with Jason and an associate of Brian Heder, another side character revealed in the second trailer.

It seems like he's closest to filling a role similar to GTA 5's Lester—snooping on comms where he shouldn't be and spending a little too much time in Incognito mode on the internet.

In the second trailer, he's seen at the bar with Lucia and Jason, and again towards the end touting a beer. He doesn't say much, but it definitely seems like he'll be taking on a more humorous role among the cast.

Boobie Ike

Boobie's one of Vice City's big players, though his official bio implies he was once a petty criminal himself... or maybe still is, if his quote is anything to go by: "The club money pay for the studio, and the drug money pay for it all."

He's managed to turn that around into a verifiable empire though with his fingers in plenty of pies: Real estate, recording studios and even a strip club to boot.

While his role in the story isn't fully known yet, we do know that he's linked to fellow side character Dre'Quan Priest. As a businessman, I presume he'll be crossing paths with Jason and Lucia fairly early on in the story.

Dre'Quan Priest

Dre'Quan is described in his official bio as "more of a hustler than a gangster," with his drug-dealing days mostly being to make ends meet while pursuing aspirations of breaking into the music scene.

It seems he's getting there, running his own label Only Raw Records and signing on double act Real Dimez and some investment from Boobie, whose strip club Dre'Quan has been booking gigs for.

There's still very little we know about Dre'Quan and what role he'll play in the main story, but we'll no doubt be treated to a host of side missions from him.

Real Dimez

Friends since high school, Roxy and Bae-Luxe serve as the two girls behind rap duo Real Dimez—with very handy necklaces sporting their names if you need to know who's who.

It seems the two sport a big presence on social media, but their music career has largely been relegated to a one-hit wonder with rapper DWNPLY, a character we currently know nothing about.

It's been five years since then, though, and they're now signed to Dre'Quan's Only Raw Records, hoping for another hit to come their way. Their official bio says the duo has "the savvy to turn their time shaking down local dealers into cold, hard cash via spicy rap tracks and a relentless social media presence."

We don't get to see Roxy in the second trailer, but we do get a glimpse of Bae-Luxe saying "brap, brap, brap."

Raul Batista

Raul Batista's official bio describes him as "a seasoned bank robber always on the hunt for talent," though his experience doesn't seem to equate with safety when it comes to his scores.

If anything, his bio says that he's becoming increasingly more reckless as time goes on, and I'm sure his hijinks will end up roping in Jason and Lucia somewhere along the way.

Brian Heder

Out of all of the side characters so far, Brian is the one we get to see the most in Grand Theft Auto 6's second trailer.

His official bio describes him as "a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Keys." His criminal days aren't behind him though as he's still peddling drugs, but these days mostly gets other people to do the dirty work for him.

That little house we see Jason fixing at the beginning belongs to Brian, who's currently letting Jason live there rent-free... in exchange for his criminal services, of course.

Stefanie (Leonida Department of Corrections official)

Unlike Lucia and her Jason, the Leonida Department of Corrections official we are introduced to at the start of the trailer seems to play a supporting role rather than being a central protagonist. If what's engraved on the nameplate sitting on her desk is accurate, then it looks like her name is Stefanie.
