Raul Bautista is the professional in GTA 6’s cast: a career bank robber who recruits talent for big jobs. Rockstar pitches him as the man who can make Jason and Lucia serious money, and as the man most likely to get them killed doing it.
Who is Raul Bautista?
Rockstar’s Only in Leonida bio opens: “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.”
The catch is in the second half of his bio: “Raul’s recklessness raises the stakes with every score.” Rockstar adds that sooner or later his crew will have to double down or walk away.
His pull quotes on Rockstar’s page are short professional maxims about experience, surprises and adapting under pressure.
