5 GTA 6 cameos that would leave fans stunned and delighted

Rockstar Games has revealed a fair bit about GTA 6 through its two trailers, screenshots, as well as character details on its website. That said, there could still be a lot more that the studio has kept as a surprise for fans, such as cameos. Grand Theft Auto games have had some interesting cameos thus far, and it would be great to see more in the next entry.

In fact, some names have the potential to catch gamers off guard. For those interested, this article lists five GTA 6 cameos that would leave fans delightedly stunned.

Lazlow Jones and 4 other GTA 6 cameos that would leave fans stunned and delighted

1) Luis Lopez

Luis Lopez is the protagonist of The Ballad of Gay Tony, one of the two Grand Theft Auto 4 story mode DLCs. He is a really fun character and a fan favorite of sorts, but sadly, we haven't heard anything about him since Grand Theft Auto 5 was released.

Nevertheless, now that nightclubs might have a somewhat notable role in GTA 6 story mode (going by a significant presence in the trailers and screenshots), having Luis reappear briefly to showcase his expertise in the field could give fans a kick.

2) Roger Clark

Roger Clark played Arthur Morgan, one of the most beloved characters in the gaming community and the protagonist of the highly acclaimed Red Dead Redemption 2. He can't appear as Arthur in Grand Theft Auto 6, as firstly, Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto seemingly aren't set in the same universe, and secondly, the character is dead.

However, having Roger Clark voice an NPC could be really fun, as most gamers, particularly Rockstar fans, would instantly recognize him.

3) Lazlow Jones

Lazlow Jones is a Rockstar Games veteran, having co-written and hosted radio stations in several Grand Theft Auto games. His voice is an iconic part of the franchise — he also appeared physically in GTA 5 story mode. Unfortunately, Lazlow left the company in 2020, which is why many don't expect him to be involved in GTA 6.

Having said that, if Rockstar finds a way to have him return in the upcoming entry, even for a cameo, long-term fans would be stunned, as well as delighted.

4) Trevor Philips

Trevor Philips is one of the three GTA 5 story mode protagonists, and undoubtedly, the most unhinged among them. His outlandish character was fun to witness, and he provided a much-needed variation between the lead trio. His appearance for more of the same shenanigans in GTA 6 story mode could be pretty entertaining, to say the least.

In fact, Rockstar could use his actor, Steven Ogg's pitch of having Trevor killed at the beginning of the game.

5) Niko Bellic

Niko Bellic, the protagonist of Grand Theft Auto 4, is perhaps the best candidate for a cameo in GTA 6. He is a fan favorite and arguably the best-written lead character the series has seen so far. Rockstar put in subtle Easter eggs related to Niko in GTA 5 story mode, but fans have expressed that they want to see more of him.

While it is rare for protagonists of a Grand Theft Auto game to appear in another, let alone in a major role, even a cameo of him on vacation with Roman (his cousin) in Vice City would be neat.
