Ray Boccino is a character introduced in Grand Theft Auto IV, also appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned.

Ray Boccino was born in Westdyke, Alderney, and is the thirty-two year old capo of Alderney's Pegorino Family. Boccino is often seen outside Pegorino territory, at Drusilla's, a restaurant in Algonquin. He conducts the Pegorino Family's relations with smaller gangs, such as the McReary Mob, on behalf of Don Jimmy Pegorino, but is also involved in activities outside the Pegorino Family, leading the Don to distrust him. Boccino also has an uneasy relationship with Pegorino Family associate Phil Bell.

Ray Boccino is introduced to Niko Bellic by Patrick McReary; he first employs Niko to kill a former friend, Teddy Benavidez. He later has Niko collect diamonds alongside Pegorino Family associates Joseph DiLeo, Johnny Barbosa and Luca Silvestri, however these three steal the diamonds for themselves. Boccino then hires Niko to retrieve the diamonds, but is apparently dismayed when Niko kills Joseph, Johnny and Luca in the course of the retrieval.

Boccino then has Niko and the acting leader of The Lost Brotherhood, Johnny Klebitz, attempt to sell the diamonds to Isaac Roth and Mori Green of the Jewish Mob for several million dollars. The deal, however, is ambushed by the Ancelotti Family, and Klebitz steals the money for the Lost. Boccino, in retaliation, kidnaps Lost member Jim Fitzgerald, and has him tortured; Fitzgerald escapes with the aid of Johnny, killing one of Boccino's men in the process. Seeking revenge, Ray sends Niko to kill some members of The Lost Brotherhood (including Fitzgerald), and sends several squads of hitmen after Johnny. Johnny survives, and considers attacking Boccino, but is told to back down by Thomas Stubbs III, who tells him that Boccino and the Pegorinos were being watched, and that all would be either arrested or killed within a month.

Boccino helps Niko find Florian Cravic. Meanwhile, Isaac Roth, blaming the failed diamond deal on Boccino, threatens to kill him, so Boccino then sends Niko to kill Roth at the Majestic Hotel. Afterwards, Boccino sets up an apartment for Niko in Alderney City, wanting to keep Niko close by. As the Pegorino Family's affairs are put further into turmoil and the police draw closer, Jimmy Pegorino decides it is necessary to send a message to any possible rats in his organization; he believes that Ray is a rat and has Niko kill him while he and his bodyguards are driving to a chop shop in BOABO.

Ray Boccino is voiced by Joe Barbara.
