All attention was on GTA 6's new trailer this week, the second one that's dropped and perhaps the last we'll see in closer to a year, after the game's delay until May.
If you were digging a little deeper, you may have also seen a batch of GTA 6 screenshots that were released, but actual story details seemed scant among all these. Jason's a criminal, Lucia gets out of prison, they're in love. It's pretty basic. But I'm not sure that people realize that Rockstar actually released way more details than you may have thought, and a lot of those are on the official GTA 6 website that I'm pretty sure only 0.001% of trailer-watchers actually have seen.
There are a ton of character descriptions, not just of Jason and Lucia (but them too), but a bunch of supporting side characters we glimpse only briefly in the trailer, rounding out a picture of the cast for the game. So, here we are:
GTA 6 Story Overview: '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: 'Jason wants an easy life, but things just keep getting harder. Jason grew up around grifters and crooks. After a stint in the Army trying to shake off his troubled teens, he found himself in the Keys doing what he knows best, working for local drug runners. It might be time to try something new. Meeting Lucia could be the best or worst thing to ever happen to him. Jason knows how he'd like it to turn out but right now, it's hard to tell.'

Lucia Caminos: 'Lucia's father taught her to fight as soon as she could walk. Life has been coming at her swinging ever since. Fighting for her family landed her in the Leonida Penitentiary. Sheer luck got her out. Lucia's learned her lesson – only smart moves from here. More than anything, Lucia wants the good life her mom has dreamed of since their days in Liberty City – but instead of half-baked fantasies, Lucia is prepared to take matters into her own hands. A life with Jason could be her way out.

Cal Hampton: 'What if everything on the internet was true? Jason's friend and a fellow associate of Brian's, Cal feels safest hanging at home, snooping on Coast Guard comms with a few beers and some private browser tabs open. The psychopaths are in charge. Get used to it. Cal is the low tide of America and happy there. Casual paranoia loves company, but his friend Jason has bigger plans.'

Boobie Ike: 'It's all about heart – the Jack of Hearts. Boobie is a local Vice City legend – and acts like it. One of the few to transform his time in the streets into a legitimate empire spanning real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio – Boobie's all smiles until it's time to talk business. Boobie might seem like he's just out for himself, but it's his partnership with the young aspiring music mogul Dre'Quan for Only Raw Records that he's most invested in – now they just need a hit.'

Dre'Quan Priest: 'Dre'Quan was always more of a hustler than a gangster. Even when he was dealing on the streets to make ends meet, breaking into music was the goal. Now that he's signed the Real Dimez, Dre'Quan's days of booking acts into Boobie's strip club might be numbered as he sets his sights on the Vice City scene.'

Real Dimez: 'Bae-Luxe and Roxy aka Real Dimez have been friends since high school – girls with the savvy to turn their time shaking down local dealers into cold, hard cash via spicy rap tracks and a relentless social media presence. An early hit single with local rapper DWNPLY took Real Dimez to new heights. Now after five years and a whole lot of trouble, they're signed to Only Raw Records, hoping lightning can strike twice.'

Raul Bautista: 'Confidence, charm and cunning – Raul's a seasoned bank robber always on the hunt for talent ready to take the risks that bring the biggest rewards. Raul's recklessness raises the stakes with every score. Sooner or later, his crew will have to double down or pull their chips from the table.'

Brian Heder: 'Brian's a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Keys. Still moving product through his boat yard with his third wife, Lori, Brian's been around long enough to let others do his dirty work. Brian's letting Jason live rent-free at one of his properties – so long as he helps with local shakedowns, and stops by for Lori's sangria once in a while.'
There's a lot to process there. Jason was in the Army? Lucia is from Liberty City? And the rest of the cast very much seems like the people you'll be taking a big chunk of your missions from, and obviously there are going to be a lot more characters past these as well. Can't wait.
