I swear switching characters in GTA 5 is as easy as pie. Did it mid-heist once cause I wanted to see how Trevor would handle the cops. Just a quick flick of the D-pad!
Hate to break it to ya, but if you're tryna change to someone completely outside the trio of Michael, Franklin, and Trevor, that's a no-go in the base game. Mods are your friend for any wild changes beyond those dudes.
Changing your character in GTA 5 is super easy! If you're playing on console, just hold down on the D-pad to bring up the character selection wheel, then use the right stick to choose between Michael, Franklin, or Trevor. On PC, you can press the Down Arrow on your keyboard to achieve the same effect. Just select the character you want to switch to, and voil脿, you've changed your character!
