Who Is Lucia in GTA 6? Lucia Caminos Explained

ConfirmedUpdated 1 min read

Quick answer: Lucia Caminos is one of GTA 6's two playable leads, alongside Jason Duval. She's the first female protagonist in a modern main-series GTA and the first character Rockstar named. She starts the story fresh out of Leonida Penitentiary.

Lucia's official backstory

From Rockstar's character profile, in our own words:

  • She learned to fight as a child. Her father taught her to fight almost as soon as she could walk, and life has kept testing her ever since.
  • She grew up partly in Liberty City. Rockstar's newer character material mentions her learning to fight there.
  • She's just out of prison. Fighting back for her family landed her in Leonida Penitentiary, and luck played a part in getting her out.
  • She wants the good life. Rockstar frames her as chasing the life her mother always dreamed of for them, and determined to make smarter moves this time.

Lucia and Jason

The trailers present Lucia and Jason as a modern Bonnie and Clyde: partners in crime and in love. After a job goes wrong, they have to rely on each other more than ever. Their story begins in the Leonida Keys and spreads across all of Leonida.

Why Lucia matters

Lucia is the first woman to headline a main GTA game since the series went 3D. Rockstar has said it set out to make her a lead who could stand next to fan favorites like Arthur Morgan (Red Dead Redemption 2) and Niko Bellic (GTA IV), while still feeling like her own character.

Where to find Lucia on the map
