News about GTA appear from everywhere. But if everyone is languishing in anticipation of the sixth numbered part of the series, some continue to follow the already released projects. Thus, a well-known insider Tez2 published a new leak regarding the upcoming GTA Online update, which is scheduled to be released on July 19.

First, the insider noted the addition of a new character – Michael De Santo, who is known for the main story campaign of GTA 5. Rumors about this appeared long ago, when the voice actor of this character in a joking manner announced his return. Ned Luke, the same actor, shot a video in the branded uniform of Cluckin Bell diner from GTA and said that “I’m the first who did it!”.

Fans of the game, undoubtedly, rejoiced at this news. After all, after one of the ENDINGS of the original GTA 5, it was unclear whether Michael De Santa would survive. In addition, the developers did not say which of the endings is canonical.

By the way, this is not the first time GTA developers have added the main character from the original story campaign. In the New Year’s update of 2021, a patch with Franklin Clinton was released. As it turned out, the gangster was able to get out and open an agency for VIP clients. Several important online story missions were associated with the same character.
