Summary

– His absence signals a new direction for GTA 6, with potential changes in radio personalities and game narrative.
The upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) is generating buzz, but it’s also marked by the potential absence of a legendary character: Lazlow Jones. Known for his appearances in every GTA game since Grand Theft Auto 3 in 2001, Jones has been a familiar voice and personality, contributing significantly to the game’s immersive world.
Jones’ departure from Rockstar Games in 2020 to join Absurd Ventures in Games, a company co-founded by former Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser, suggests he may not be involved in GTA 6. This move could lead to significant changes in the game’s radio personalities and overall narrative, as Jones was not only a character but also a co-president of the production department, contributing as a writer, director, and producer.
In previous GTA games, Jones’ character was often heard as a radio personality, but in GTA V, he made a physical appearance as the host of the in-game show “Fame or Shame.” His character’s interactions with the protagonists added a unique flavor to the game’s storytelling. With his potential absence in GTA 6, fans are curious about how this will impact the game’s narrative and whether new characters will fill the void left by Jones.
