GTA 5 has a plethora of characters that the community loves and wishes to see in future titles. But, some particularly memorable ones were either extremely funny or helpful towards the main trio and have successfully imprinted themselves in the minds of all the players. But, it is not an easy task to pick out the best.

GTA 5's campaign, although not the best in the series, has tons of fun missions where the side characters play a part just as important as the main ones. This inevitably means that they become fan favorites deserving of another appearance. This article ranks such characters from the story mode that everyone wants to see more of.


Ranking the top 5 characters from the GTA 5 campaign that deserve to appear in future games

1) Martin Madrazo

Martin Madrazo is a Mexican Cartel leader who was quite a threatening enemy before Trevor put him in his place. Michael comes across this mafia when he accidentally pulls down the cartel leader's luxurious house while chasing the tennis coach during one mission.

One thing leads to another, forcing Michael to do some jobs for him while also collecting money to pay for repairs. Although Martin can be unfair and cruel, he has his fair side as well, which allows him to get on this list. Since he is associated with the drug business in Los Santos, it is quite possible to see him in GTA 6 as well.


2) Wade Hebert

Wade is one of the funniest characters in GTA 5 who trails Trevor and helps him out in some critical situations. Unfortunately, he is not the brightest character in the game, but his innocence and loyalty make him a favorite that deserves to be seen in future games as well.

After helping out Trevor, Wade Hebert moved out to the Vaniall Unicorn Strip Club and can be found in GTA Online as a part of the Fooliangz group. This indicates that he is still active in the business, and Rockstar Games might give him a chance to appear in future games.


3) Lester Crest

Lester might be the creepiest character in GTA 5, but he is also one of the most useful ones. After Michael saves him from the FIB, he ensures that nobody finds out about Michael's fake death, all the while working behind the scenes to find good-paying jobs.

Once the main trio meets and starts going on heists and other missions, Lester is the person who arranges the HQ as well as prepares efficient plans to maximize the profits. But since he always works from behind, a lot of players wish to see him in a more prominent role. With Rockstar about to do the GTA 6 announcement any day now, fans are expecting to see Lester working things out in Vice City.


4) Franklin Clinton

Although Franklin is one of the main characters in the game, players still want to see more of him. He is the first character that players interact with before meeting Michael and, eventually, Trevor. As it turns out, Franklin Clinton is the most sane of the trio and doesn't hesitate to keep the other two in check or call them out.

This makes him one of the best characters in GTA 5, who can make an appearance in the upcoming title. Since Franklin is still young and ambitious, it would not be weird to see him moving to Vice City to try and increase his fortune while dealing with other drug lords and gangsters.


5) Trevor Phillips

There is a reason why Trevor Phillips is one of the most memorable characters in the Grand Theft Auto series- his insanity. He does not hesitate to murder someone in cold blood but is also fiercely loyal toward his friends and allies, showing his good side to the players.

Trevor Phillips performs several unhinged actions throughout the playthrough, including but not stopping at murdering Wade's relatives and cutting Martin Madrazo's earns, all while trying to steal his wife. This makes him one of the most dangerous characters in the GTA series. But these are also just some of the reasons why he would fit perfectly in the insane world of Grand Theft Auto 6.
