The decision was made by RB Leipzig coach Jesse Marsch and his coaching staff on Thursday.
"It's an honor and also a huge responsibility for me," said Gulacsi.
"I want to use my experience and quality to help the team, be positive and support everyone in order for us to have a successful season," added the 31-year-old goalkeeper.
Kevin Kampl and Willi Orban have been selected as vice captains, with Marcel Halstenberg, Emil Forsberg and Yussuf Poulsen also part of the six-man team council.
