Ahead of today's GTA 6 Extended Preview on Netflix, developer Rockstar Games has revealed plenty of new details on the highly anticipated open-world game. In a new interview, Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson divulged how the game, similar to GTA: San Andreas, will require you to take good care of the protagonists Jason and Lucia, as the duo will need to engage in exercise, healthy eating, and relaxation if they want to stay in shape. Just like real life, but with more immediate gains.
First off, Jason and Lucia's physiques will change according to how you take care of them between missions. Working out will visibly build muscle for the pair, while gorging on food will make them get noticeably heavier. Rockstar says it wants to enable "self-expression" amongst players without losing "the essence" of the characters. On that topic, Jason is ex-military and a drug runner, while Lucia has just finished a stint in prison when GTA 6 starts.
You'll also need to ensure that Jason and Lucia get some rest between their outings, as staying awake for several days or constantly evading the police will take a toll on them. Players will have the option to play as the couple or go solo in the game, and swapping between them is designed to be a seamless experience. "The thing we love about this medium is the way these characters aren’t empty avatars that you can do whatever you want with," Nelson said to Dazed (via Shinobi602 ).
