Outlets covering Rockstar North's August 2026 preview sessions report that most stores across Leonida, including convenience stores and jewelry shops, can be robbed in free roam, not just scripted heist missions. During a demonstrated jewelry store robbery, Jason and Lucia wore masks, controlled staff and customers, and collected valuables, with a security camera and later police response factoring into the escape. Stolen goods are reportedly sold on through fence characters rather than deposited directly as cash. These details come from press demonstrations rather than a Rockstar press release, so exact scope at launch is not yet independently verified by Rockstar itself.
