Cal Hampton is a supporting character in Grand Theft Auto VI. Known for his skeptical and conspiratorial worldview, Cal is a close friend of Jason Duval and a fellow associate of Brian Heder. He is most comfortable at home, where he spends his time monitoring Coast Guard communications, indulging in a few beers, and browsing the internet with a healthy dose of paranoia.
Cal Hampton is characterized by his fascination with surveillance and internet conspiracy theories.
Cal's associations with Jason and Brian imply that he may play a role in providing information, surveillance support, or comic relief throughout the game.
Cal Hampton is defined by his deep skepticism, conspiracy-minded thinking, and a desire for safety and control. He is most at ease in familiar surroundings, particularly his home, where he can indulge his hobbies without interference. Cal is the type of person who feels that "everything on the internet is true," leading him to believe in wild rumors and theories.
Despite this, he is resourceful, technically savvy, and loyal to his friends, Jason and Brian. His habits include monitoring Coast Guard communications, drinking beer, and maintaining strict privacy (as evidenced by his use of private browser tabs).
Cal appears in the second trailer as a frequent companion of Jason. He's depicted as an overweight middle-aged man with tattoos, particularly his left arm and left leg.
Cal is a friend of Jason and an associate of Brian. He is part of their social circle and is trusted enough to be privy to their activities and plans.
Cal Hampton appears to have been designed as a supporting character in GTA 6 who brings a mix of comic relief and practical support to the main cast, especially through his technical skills and conspiracy-minded worldview. His character may draw inspiration from real-world internet culture and the archetype of the reclusive, tech-savvy friend.
