Rockstar Games surprise released a new trailer this morning for Grand Theft Auto VI (which was recently delayed to next year), but that’s not all it shared about the game today. Alongside the trailer, Rockstar overhauled the game’s website and added all kinds of new details about the the game’s locations and some of the characters you will meet in the game, including its protagonists.
Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos are the aforementioned protagonists. Jason an army vet who works in the Keys for local drug runners, but wants to try something new. Lucia’s father trained her as a fighter her whole life and it was apparently fighting for her family that landed her in jail. But in both the GTA VI trailers, we see her regaining her freedom.
Brian Heder is the other character we see early in the trailer. He is an older gentleman that Jason apparently works for. Apparently he and his wife Lori manage the drug running business together. Though it was not confirmed in the trailer, Brian sounds like he is voiced by Stephen Root (Barry, King of the Hill).
Cal Hampton is also seen speaking periodically in the trailer. He is apparently a friend of Jason’s and also works for Brian. Though similarly not confirmed in the trailer, it sounds like he is voiced by Saturday Night Live‘s Bobby Moynihan.
Boobie Ike is a well-known and successful Vice City entrepreneur who built a number of legitimate businesses from his crime roots.
Dre’quan Priest is a musician who is “more of a hustler than a gangster” according to his bio.
Bae-Luxe and Roxy together go by Real Dimez. They are high school friends and are heavily invested in social media.
And finally, Raul Bautista is a charming and cunning bank robber.
There will be undoubtedly be many more characters in Grand Theft Auto VI when it releases May 26 of next year, but for now, this is a substantial look at who we can expect to meet in the game. For more GTA 6, you can rewatch its reveal trailer and see what Game Informer’s resident Floridians thought about Rockstar’s adaptation of their home state.
