Confirmed SupportingBae-Luxe
Bae-Luxe is one half of the rap duo Real Dimez, named directly on Rockstar's official character page alongside her friend and collaborator Roxy. PC Gamer notes the pair wear name necklaces that make them easy to tell apart, and that Bae-Luxe appears briefly in Trailer 2. Beyond her membership of the duo, Rockstar has published no individual backstory for her.

Confirmed SupportingBoobie Ike
Boobie Ike is a Vice City operator who has turned a street reputation into a portfolio spanning real estate, a strip club and a recording studio. Rockstar's page gives him the line that the club money pays for the studio and the drug money pays for it all, and names him among the figures on GTA 6's cover art. The Extended Look opens with Jason and Lucia collecting for him, which Eurogamer's roundup describes as a pick-up for "a fella known as Boobie".

Confirmed SupportingBrian Heder
Brian Heder is described by Rockstar as a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Keys, still moving product through his boat yard alongside his third wife, Lori. He lets Jason live rent-free at one of his properties in exchange for help with local shakedowns. Eurogamer's Extended Look roundup confirms Brian and Lori are introduced together as a married couple, and in the same footage he offers Jason and Lucia a job from a third party with the caveat that only one of them can take it.

Confirmed SupportingCal Hampton
Cal Hampton is now profiled on Rockstar's own Only in Leonida page: a friend of Jason's and a fellow associate of Brian's who feels safest at home, snooping on Coast Guard comms with a few beers and some private browser tabs open. Rockstar adds that Cal is "at the low tide of America and happy there", while his friend Jason has bigger plans. PC Gamer's cast list places him among Rockstar's named characters and reads the conspiracy-minded homebody as loosely comparable to GTA 5's Lester.

Rockstar Games
Confirmed SupportingDre'Quan Priest
Dre'Quan Priest runs the Only Raw Records label and is characterized in his official bio as more of a hustler than a gangster, with dealing having been a means to fund music ambitions rather than an end in itself. He has signed the rap duo Real Dimez and books gigs at Boobie Ike's club. Rockstar has not said how he intersects with the main story, so the assumption that he supplies side missions is inference rather than fact.

Confirmed Mentioned
DWNPLY
DWNPLY is named on Rockstar's official character page as the local rapper whose early hit single with Real Dimez took the duo to new heights roughly five years before the events of the game. He is referenced only in that backstory, and nothing has been shown of him on screen. Whether he appears as a character at all remains open.

Rockstar Games
Confirmed Protagonist PlayableJason Duval
Jason Duval is one of GTA 6's two playable leads. Rockstar's official bio says he grew up around grifters and crooks, did a stint in the Army to shake off a troubled adolescence, and ended up in the Leonida Keys working for local drug runners. Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson restated that framing directly ahead of the Extended Look — Jason as ex-military and a drug runner — and Rockstar leaves open whether meeting Lucia is the best or worst thing to happen to him.
-
Rockstar Games
Confirmed Protagonist PlayableLucia Caminos
Lucia Caminos is GTA 6's other playable lead and the first female protagonist in a mainline Grand Theft Auto. Rockstar's bio says her father taught her to fight as soon as she could walk, that fighting for her family put her in the Leonida Penitentiary, and that sheer luck got her out. Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson summarised her the same way before the Extended Look — a fighter fresh out of prison — with the story framed as a Bonnie-and-Clyde pairing where her relationship with Jason is front and center.

Rockstar Games
Confirmed SupportingRaul Bautista
Rockstar describes Raul as a seasoned bank robber running on confidence, charm and cunning, permanently hunting for talent willing to take the risks that bring the biggest rewards. His official bio also flags that his recklessness raises the stakes with every score, and Eurogamer's Extended Look roundup shows Jason and Lucia picking him up mid-police-pursuit. On the spelling: Rockstar's own GTA VI site writes "Raul Bautista" in its description of the cover art, while PC Gamer's cast list uses "Batista" — we follow Rockstar.

Rockstar Games
Confirmed SupportingReal Dimez
Real Dimez is the rap duo of Bae-Luxe and Roxy, friends since high school who, per Rockstar, turned time spent shaking down local dealers into cash through rap tracks and a relentless social media presence. An early hit with local rapper DWNPLY took them to new heights, but five years and a lot of trouble later they are signed to Dre'Quan Priest's Only Raw Records hoping to repeat it. Their role in Jason and Lucia's story has not been described.

Rockstar Games
Confirmed SupportingRoxy
Roxy is the other half of Real Dimez, named on Rockstar's official character page as Bae-Luxe's friend since high school. PC Gamer reports she does not appear in Trailer 2, making her one of the named cast members we have seen least of. No individual bio has been published for her beyond the duo's shared backstory.
-
Rockstar Games
Confirmed SupportingWyman
Wyman is named on Rockstar's GTA VI site as the "eccentric collector and local fixer" behind the Classic Car Collection, a special commission that has you tracking down abandoned classic and work-in-progress project cars across Leonida and restoring them. GamesRadar+ reports the same brief, noting four of the cars are Ultimate Edition-exclusive but that there are clearly more out there to find. Rockstar has published no bio for him beyond that role, and an official screenshot shows him outside a garage with a wrench in hand.
-
Credible Supporting
Andres de Leon
Andres de Leon works at the company Megamundo and, per PC Gamer's breakdown of the Extended Look, hires Jason and Lucia as security detail. That job is one of the two full mission sequences shown in the August 2026 gameplay reveal. He has no official Rockstar bio, so both his role and the spelling of his name come from outlet reporting.
-
Credible Animal
Buddy
Buddy is the dog Jason addresses by that name in GTA 6 footage, though PC Gamer cautions it may be an affectionate term rather than an actual name. Petting dogs is confirmed across the Extended Look coverage — Eurogamer notes you can pet, scold or study them, and GameSpot confirms the pet and scold prompts — which ties into the Criminal Profile system that rewards small good deeds. Whether he is a persistent companion or a one-scene presence has not been established.
-
Credible Supporting
Ernesto
Ernesto is the character who, per PC Gamer, appears to inform on Raymond ahead of the police raid shown in the Extended Look. Everything about him beyond that single act is unknown, including his allegiance and whether he recurs. Only a first name has surfaced and Rockstar has not acknowledged him.
-
Credible Supporting
Lori Heder
Rockstar's official character page refers to her only as Lori, Brian Heder's third wife, who helps him move product through their boat yard and whose sangria is part of Jason's rent arrangement. Eurogamer's Extended Look roundup likewise names her simply as Lori, one half of the married couple you meet alongside Brian; PC Gamer is the outlet that appends the surname Heder. The surname is an outlet convention rather than something Rockstar has published, so treat it as unconfirmed.
-
Credible Supporting
Petra Navarro
PC Gamer identifies Petra Navarro as the COO of Megamundo, the company whose event Jason and Lucia work security for in the Extended Look. The same write-up speculates about a workplace relationship with Andres de Leon, which is the outlet's read of the footage rather than anything Rockstar has stated. No official bio exists for her.
-
Credible Supporting
Raymond
Raymond is described by PC Gamer as a dealer selling to Boobie Ike who is betrayed by a character named Ernesto during the Extended Look's drug-den sequence. He appears in one of the two mission segments Rockstar showed in August 2026. Rockstar has published no bio for him and only a first name is known.

Rockstar Games · Trailer 1 (0:08)
Credible MinorStefani
Stefani is identified by PC Gamer as Lucia's corrections counsellor, seen only in GTA 6's first trailer from December 2023. Given Lucia's story begins with her release from the Leonida Penitentiary, the role places her at the very start of the narrative. She has had no official bio and has not reappeared in later material.
-
Credible Returning
Valentia
PC Gamer identifies Valentia as GTA 6's first confirmed returning character, having originally debuted in GTA Online. That would make her the clearest thread yet tying GTA 6 into the existing HD-universe continuity. Rockstar has not published a bio for her, and her role in the story is entirely undescribed.
