Dual-Protagonist System

🔄 Character Switching

During free roam, hold the down D-pad button (or hold Tab) to open the character switch menu and pick Jason or Lucia. Missions usually lock the current character.

📊 Independent Stats

Jason and Lucia each have independent stats, skills, and equipment. Build them separately — nothing is shared.

🎯 Exclusive Missions

Some missions can only be triggered by a specific protagonist. Switch regularly to check available missions so you don't miss story branches.

💞 Relationship

Side activities and random events affect the relationship between the two characters and later story options. Gym sessions, pool, restaurants, and rideshares all shape their bond.

Character Building Tips

Build both evenly: Don't focus on just one character — train both protagonists to avoid one falling behind late-game.
Switch regularly: Check available missions after switching; some missions lock the current character.
Mind the relationship: Side choices affect their relationship, which influences later story options.
