Grand Theft Auto 5: Features Three Playable Characters, Game Informer "Leaks" Fake

Thankfully, Redditors, in their daily search for for karma, believe in the distribution of information, especially regarding Rockstar's latest title. Fast1195 decided to uploaded the entire Grand Theft Auto 5 feature in the latest issue of Game Informer. Without spoiling too many other secrets, one of the more interesting reveals was the surprising lack of previously mentioned characters thought to be the games' stars. But, that's the nature of rumors. Sometimes they're correct, other times, not so much.

Gone are the supposed featured characters, the elder Albert DeSilva and younger Dougie Vejo. As a matter of fact, they probably never existed at all. Replacing the duo, we now have a trio, consisting of Michael, Franklin, and Trevor. Check the pictures below for more information, and many thanks to Fast1195 for sharing.

The picture quality may not be the best, so the profiles are written out below. Or, you could just wait for the issue to come to you. 

 
Name: Franklin
Occupation: Repo Man
Age: Mid 20s
Location: South Los Santos
History: A young and ambitious hustler, Franklin currently works for an American luxury car dealership who who sell cars to people who can't afford them. When they default, Franklin plays the role of the grim repo man. Franklin stumbles onto Michael when looking for a hustle.
Appearance: Fit and fashion conscious, Franklin is the young and capable one of the bunch.



Name: Michael
Occupation: Retired
Age: Early 40s
Location: Rockford Hills 
History: A highly successful former bank robber, Michael retired in luxury after making a sweetheart deal with the FBI. Currently in the witness protection program, it may look like he has the idyllic life, but he hates his wife Amanda (who reciprocates the feeling and spends all his money) and doesn't understand his two teenage children (Tracy and Jimmy). With the money running out and his domestic life driving him crazy, Michael needs to get back into the game.
Appearance: He may be older, but with a clean-cut appearance, nice clothes, and a big house, Michael doesn't look out of place in high society.

 
Name: Trevor
Occupation: Career criminal
Age: Early 40's
Location: Blaine County
History: A frequent drug user who is governed by his desire and prone to violent outbursts and destructive rampages, Trevor is the proverbial loose cannon. A former military pilot, he used to work a few bank jobs with Michael back in the day. You don't need to twist his arm to get him on board with a heist.
Appearance: Balding and disheveled, the years haven't been kind of Trevor. He frequently wears plain white t-shirts and has a tattoo that saus "Cut Here" with a dotted line around his neck.

Grand Theft Auto V is available for pre-order now, and is expected to release spring of next year on PS3 and XBox 360. A PC release has not yet been mentioned.
