The Grand Theft Auto 6 extended look has finally arrived, and what's clearest already is that even though it's got one fewer protagonist than its predecessor, these two playable protagonists are going to be a seriously big deal. Of course, that's not to hate on Michael, Franklin, or Trevor, who gave Rockstar three insane lives to cut between, three skill sets, three houses on three corners of the map. But what Grand Theft Auto 6 appears to be building with Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos seems undeniably narrower and heavier, like an honest-to-god partnership in both the narrative and gameplay senses.
Truly, Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look was all business, showing off roughly half an hour of PS5 footage with little explanation beyond that. It did quite the job of speaking for itself, too, especially in showcasing what's changed since Grand Theft Auto 5 shipped the switch wheel in 2013 and built its best heists around it. The big difference here, as I see it, is that Jason and Lucia keep occupying the same scene, whether the player happens to be holding both of them, and that's incredibly exciting.
For as much love as Grand Theft Auto 5 truly deserves, it's no less true that, by and large, Rockstar chose to scatter its leads across Los Santos and keep them there. Michael had the Rockford Hills mansion, Franklin had the house up in Vinewood Hills, and Trevor had a trailer out in the desert. Their friends, their hobbies, and their story threads were largely constructed as separate, and the switch wheel existed to ferry the player between them.

Certain smaller missions had more than one of the crew, and the heists were where switching largely earned its keep, but outside those set pieces, free-roam really only ever held one of them at a time, unless you wanted to call them and deal with a very finicky system for the Three Man Army achievement. But that was by design: when asked by IGN's Greg Miller before launch how the mechanic came about, Rockstar's Dan Houser traced it to a suggestion that the leads share missions, which he said "takes away all the boring bits from the missions." When speaking to Chris Suellentrop at the New York Times around the same period, Houser framed the trio as three separate stories played inside one game, interwoven rather than fused:
Both answers describe intersection—three lives crossing at useful points—rather than two people operating as a single unit.
GTA 6's switch clearly serves a different purpose, as the extended look opens with Jason and Lucia heading in together to collect from a dealer named Raymond on behalf of Boobie Ike. The sequence goes wrong in the way these sequences do, and police raid the building, but while the player only controls Jason, Lucia never becomes scenery, covering him through the firefight and calling out threats he hasn't clocked yet. In that instance and others, it seems that whichever protagonist you aren't controlling will shoot alongside you and pitch in on robberies.
