The People of Leonida — Spoiler-Free

Rockstar has officially profiled eight people (nine, counting both halves of a duo) for Grand Theft Auto VI. These are the only character profiles we publish before launch — written in our words from Rockstar’s official material, with no plot detail beyond the premise Rockstar itself published. All CONFIRMED unless labeled otherwise.

The protagonists — both playable

Jason Duval

An Army veteran now working for drug runners in the Leonida Keys. Jason is one of the game’s two playable leads — per preview coverage REPORTED, you can switch between Jason and Lucia at almost any time, bring the other along as an active partner, and shape how their story plays out through choices, including approaching robberies quietly or aggressively. His world in the official material: a safehouse with a motorcycle and kayak (Ultimate Edition), a Vapid Ganado pickup, and friends like Cal Hampton.

Lucia Caminos

Fresh out of Leonida Penitentiary at the story’s start, and the first playable female lead in a mainline GTA. Lucia’s family previously lived in Liberty City. Rockstar’s official premise for the pair: a couple whose score goes wrong, forcing them on the run inside a criminal conspiracy spanning Leonida.

The supporting cast

Cal Hampton

Jason’s friend — and the conspiracy-minded one. If Jason is the muscle of his Keys circle, Cal is the one connecting dots nobody asked him to connect.

Boobie Ike

A Vice City legend who turned street history into an empire: real estate, a strip club, and the Only Raw Records recording studio. The old school, still holding court.

Dre’Quan Priest

An aspiring music mogul building toward the big time — the record-business hustle side of Vice City’s cast.

Real Dimez — Bae-Luxe and Roxy

A rap duo, counted as one official profile: Bae-Luxe and Roxy, two of the nine profiled people. Leonida’s rising sound.

Raul Bautista

A veteran bank robber — the experienced professional of the cast, from the generation that treats a heist as a trade.

Brian Heder

An old-school Keys drug runner who runs a smuggling operation from the Leonida Keys — part of the world Jason works in when the story begins.
