Joey Leone is a member of the Leone family and the son of Don Salvatore Leone. Known for his lack of ambition, Joey works as a mechanic with criminal side-dealings in Portland Island. In cut scenes he is constantly seen restoring a BF Injection dune buggy, and spending time with his favorite prostitute, Misty. The buggy can be seen (after completing the Portland mission string) parked in certain hours outside the apartment where Misty is picked up in the "Drive Misty For Me" mission). Joey's tasks intended for Claude include theft, assassinations and body disposal.

In the process, Joey introduces his father's "Capo", Toni Cipriani, allowing Claude to perform further jobs with the Leone family. Joey is also mentioned in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas when Carl Johnson meets Salvatore Leone in Las Venturas, stating that he had the pleasure of working with Joey while residing in Liberty City. Joey is referenced again in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories when Salvatore Leone states that he wasn't as involved in the mob family ("What more could a family guy ask for? Even my son don't got it so good").

Joey is also believed to have been responsible for the killing of several Forelli Family members, which in turn results in a Mafia war between the Leones and the Forellis. It is debatable whether he becomes Don following his father's death. Toni Cipriani would conceivably be next in line if Joey continued with his auto business.

Trivia

  • Early concept art from the Rockstar North website label Joey as "Joey Corvino" as opposed to Leone. It is possible that this was an early name for The Leone Family before finally deciding on the current name.
