CURRENT ANSWER

Rockstar's official premise follows Jason and Lucia after an easy score goes wrong. Famitsu's direct interview adds that the story begins in the Leonida Keys, progresses through chapters, moves the pair between changing safehouses, and lets their relationship depth vary without revealing the complete plot.

GTA 6 Relationship System

Jason and Lucia can remain partners in crime without emphasizing romance. In Famitsu's interview, Rob Nelson describes a relationship state that affects couple interactions and can be nurtured again. That does not establish an exact affection meter, a dating roster, or ending requirements.

GTA 6 Character Switching

Players can control Jason and Lucia, while the non-controlled protagonist can continue an independent schedule. Famitsu's direct Rob Nelson interview says story context may lock a character, missions may force a handoff, and other missions may allow player-selected switching.

GTA 6 Criminal Profile

It is separate from immediate police Heat and from Jason and Lucia's relationship; exact scores and thresholds remain unpublished.
