Grand Theft Auto 5 will feature three protagonists, it has been revealed.
The game is detailed in December's issue of Game Informer, which will be available to read online today at 2pm Central Time (8pm GMT), or in stores within a fortnight.
The magazine's cover, however, has been released early and features an image of Grand Theft Auto 5's three playable characters.
The 18-page Grand Theft Auto 5 preview will "introduce the three main protagonists, discuss the groundbreaking way you use them, and explore the reimagined Los Santos - the biggest open world Rockstar has created to date".
The details emerge ahead of a new trailer, which will debut on November 14. The trailer was supposed to arrive earlier this week, but was delayed due to Hurricane Sandy closing Rockstar's New York offices.
Announced last year, Grand Theft Auto 5 will take place in Los Santos, which is loosely based on present-day Southern California. The game supposedly takes place in "the largest and most thriving game world" that Rockstar has ever created.
Grand Theft Auto 5 was recently announced for a spring 2013 release, which Rockstar has now confirmed will be after March.
Pre-order bonuses will reportedly include a miniature slide viewer, which includes five locations from the game.
