# Who are the main characters in GTA 6?

GTA 6 has two leads, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Rockstar Games describes Grand Theft Auto VI as Jason and Lucia's story: a couple from Vice City caught in a criminal conspiracy across the state of Leonida. Rockstar has not explained how switching between the two works in play.

Everything on this page comes from Rockstar's own pre-release descriptions. It contains no story details beyond them.

## The story in Rockstar's words

The official game page and both console stores use the same description: "Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them. But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive."

## Jason Duval

Rockstar's character page opens with: "Jason wants an easy life, but things just keep getting harder." It says he grew up "around grifters and crooks", served in the Army, and now works for local drug runners in the Keys. The same page says that "meeting Lucia could be the best or worst thing to ever happen to him".

## Lucia Caminos

Her page opens with: "Lucia’s father taught her to fight as soon as she could walk." Rockstar writes that "fighting for her family landed her in the Leonida Penitentiary" and that she is "fresh out of prison". It also mentions that her mother dreams of a good life "since their days in Liberty City". See [Will Liberty City be in GTA 6?](https://gta6confirmed.com/answers/gta-6-liberty-city/).

## Other characters Rockstar has named

The official site has pages for six more people around the two leads:

- Cal Hampton, Jason's friend
- Brian Heder, who lets Jason live at one of his properties
- Boobie Ike
- Dre'Quan Priest
- Real Dimez
- Raul Bautista

## Can you play as both, and can you switch?

The official pages describe the game as "Jason and Lucia's story", and the store listings say Ultimate Edition items are "available to Jason and Lucia across their story". Rockstar has not said whether you switch between them freely, in set missions, or both. We will answer that after the game comes out on November 19, 2026.
