GTA 6: Who Is Jason Duval, the Playable Main Character in Grand Theft Auto VI?

Jason Duval is far from an unknown figure in Vice City's criminal underworld. Raised in an environment filled with scams and cons, he grew up in a world where only the strongest survive. This harsh upbringing turned him into a resourceful and pragmatic man, willing to do whatever it takes to make it — even if it means constantly crossing moral lines.

After serving in the military, Jason didn’t find redemption. Instead, he dove even deeper into schemes and trafficking, especially in the Keys — a swampy, dangerous area of the fictional state of Leonida. His military experience, imposing physique, and discipline make him someone who can stay calm and tactical in extreme situations.

The trailer highlights Jason’s relationship with Lucia Caminos, the other main character in GTA 6. From their very first interaction — when they reunite as Lucia gets out of prison — it’s clear they form a passionate and dangerous alliance. Together, they are anti-heroes, ready to do whatever it takes to survive and thrive in the increasingly cutthroat streets of Vice City.

Their dynamic, built on trust and complementarity, will be crucial to the story. Jason, protective and loyal, vows to always watch Lucia’s back — a promise that will be tested through heists, betrayals, and conspiracies across Leonida.

The trailer doesn’t shy away from showing Jason’s chaotic daily life: car chases, spectacular shootouts, and bold robberies are all part of his routine. But we also see a different side of him — the hedonist, enjoying Vice City’s nightlife with parties and club outings. This lighter side contrasts with his tough exterior, revealing a deeper desire to escape the system and find a better life.

His signature line, “Whatever happens, I got your back,” perfectly sums up his loyalty to Lucia and his relentless drive to survive, no matter what stands in his way.
