Which gta v protagonists can be played in gta online?

Grand Theft Auto V, released in 2013, features three playable protagonists: Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton, and Trevor Philips. While Grand Theft Auto Online launched without direct access to these characters, Rockstar Games introduced story-based missions that allow players to experience the protagonists' narratives within the online mode. Through updates like the 'Doomsday Heist' and other narrative-driven content, players can control each protagonist in specific online scenarios. Additionally, players can create their own character in GTA Online while occasionally interacting with or missions involving the original three protagonists. The integration allows for a blend of the single-player story experience with the persistent online world, enabling fans to revisit familiar characters while exploring the expanded multiplayer content.
