Rockstar North, the developers behind GTA 6, have been studying the habits of Miami residents to ensure an authentic life simulation experience. The game will also maintain the romance and couple dynamics between Jason and Lucia, with players able to switch between characters during in-game activities such as driving or social media browsing.
