Select your character\u2019s appearance by choosing your parent\u2019s heritage, then use the gene dominance meter to dial-in which parent your appearance favors more. Additionally, you&#8217;ll customize your character&#8217;s daily activities &#8211; everything from family time to illegal work and sports to couch potato hours all have an impact on your character\u2019s appearance and skill set (and you can always rank up your skill stats more via gameplay).

Michael is an expert marksman &#8211; his Special Ability slows down time in a gunfight allowing him to pick off his targets with greater ease. Franklin is a skilled driver with sharp reflexes &#8211; his Special Ability lets him slow down time while driving any road-based vehicle, allowing him to quickly navigate through traffic with ease and take corners at high speeds. Trevor is a drug-addled sociopath with a short fuse &#8211; his Special Ability sends him into a rage, causing double damage to enemies while only taking half as much damage himself when hit. With the boost that&#8217;s included in both the Special and Collector&#8217;s Editions, the Special Ability bar will generate 25% faster.<\/p>\n<p><b>Stunt Plane Trials<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Take in Los Santos and Blaine County at breakneck speeds in the Grand Theft Auto V Stunt Plane Trials.
