5 GTA 6 cameos that would blow GTA fans' minds

Vice City is back. And so is the nostalgia. With GTA 6 bringing us back to palm-lined streets and neon-lit nights, there's a quiet hope buzzing in every fan's head:
Who's coming back?
Rockstar has always loved sprinkling in cameos that hit hard for longtime players.
Here are 5 legendary returns that could absolutely blow the roof off the fanbase if they happen.
1. Claude — The Silent Assassin in the Shadows
He doesn't talk. He doesn't flinch. And he's one of the most dangerous men in GTA history. Claude from GTA III has always been shrouded in mystery, and with Leonida (GTA 6's setting) being a criminal hotspot, there's every reason to think this mute menace could show up on the sidelines, maybe as a silent fixer or a mythic figure who 'never misses.'
Tommy Vercetti Returns To GTA 6..
2. Tommy Vercetti — The Ghost of Vice City
Tommy was
the
face of the original Vice City. Even though Ray Liotta (who voiced him) passed away in 2022, fans are hoping Rockstar will find a respectful way to reference the character - maybe a statue, mural, or whispered legend in the streets. Just a glimpse of Tommy's legacy would send old-school players into overdrive. He
is
Vice City.
3. Niko Bellic — A Smuggler in a New Land
Last we heard, Niko had disappeared off the radar. But imagine this: the Eastern European war vet-turned-criminal pops up in Leonida, older, more cautious, running guns or quietly advising a new generation of crooks.

A tired Niko, caught between regret and survival, would hit hard emotionally and be a major lore boost for GTA VI.
4. CJ — Back With Grove Street Wisdom
Carl 'CJ' Johnson is the heart of GTA: San Andreas, and players have begged Rockstar for years to bring him back. An older CJ mentoring young criminals? Or maybe running his own empire from afar? The Grove Street OG deserves a return, and if Rockstar pulls it off without ruining his arc, it'll be
historic

Michael De Santa In GTA 6 (HE'S BACK)
5. Michael De Santa — Hollywood to Leonida
Michael faked his death, moved to Vinewood, and tried to live the good life.
But what if he's got connections in Vice City? Whether it's a cameo in a mission, a news report, or a phone call, seeing Michael — older, maybe even wiser — would make the GTA V trilogy feel tighter and more connected to GTA 6's evolving story.
GTA 6 is already hyped for its massive open world and the return to Vice City. But sprinkle in even
one
of these iconic characters, and it won't just be a new chapter — it'll feel like the ultimate love letter to fans who've been along for the chaos since the beginning. Here's hoping Rockstar knows exactly how to hit us in the feels.
