This comes as positive news for fans who have been awaiting new in-game content following the latest Criminal Enterprises update. Due to his role in the story mode, Wade's possible introduction to the online mode has also hyped the community.
What kind of role does Wade play in GTA 5? – Background, personality, and more
Wade Hebert is a tritagonist in GTA 5 and a loyal friend of Trevor Philips, one of the main protagonists. He is also the cousin of Floyd Hebert, a supporting character in the game.
Wade is a big fan of “horrorcore” music and appears as a parody of a stereotypical juggalo. At times, it appears as though he is mentally challenged due to his dialog and speech, but he's also described as an “intellectual” due to his artwork.
As for his relationship with Trevor, in 2012, Wade was on his way to "the gathering" with his friends before they stopped at Sandy Shores to purchase drugs. Wade saw his friends drive off to a quarry with Trevor and thought they had abandoned him. Later, Trevor, noticing his inherent innocence, decided to take care of him. Despite his childish behavior, he doesn’t refrain from living the life of an outlaw while following Trevor's every command.
Wade's role in the story was crucial as it was he who tracked Michael De Santa's whereabouts.
Although Rockstar Games hasn’t confirmed Wade's inclusion in the upcoming Winter 2022 update, fans can expect the video game publisher to make an official announcement sometime soon.
