Grand Theft Auto 5 Online introduces new characters into the city of Los Santos. Here’s how to unlock the powerful Avi Schwartzman to join the players’ team in heists. Outside of the main campaign with the iconic three main characters, Trevor, Michael, and Franklin, Los Santos online contains its own unique set of characters to help populate and characterize the world. Some of these characters can be helpful in pulling off heists faster and more efficiently. For example, Packie McReary is a reoccurring character from the Grand Theft Auto series. He can be used as a gunman and does a much better job than a random no-name inclusion. But in order to unlock Packie McReary as a character, the player must set him free from the police. There’s a chain of events that the player has to accomplish in order to unlock new characters. It’s the same case with Avi Schwartzman. This guide will help players figure out what it takes to get him to join the team.
Avi Schwartzman is a new character introduced for the first time in Grand Theft Auto Online. Lester Crest from the original campaign of Grand Theft Auto 5 describes Avi as a paranoid character. The reason he’s so valuable is due to his record fast ability to hack through safes. For the Diamond Casino Heist, he’s amongst the fastest to hack open the safe. This leaves more time for the players to escape, and thus generate more revenue from a successful heist. He is a valuable asset, but one that may take a bit of time to complete. For starters, the player must have already completed the Pacific Standard heist missions. The Pacific Standard heist missions require the player to locate Avi who is being captive at a small island off the west coast and bring him to safety. Once this mission is complete, players will have the opportunity to unlock Avi Schwartzman after the next task. For Avi to want to join the heist, the player must find and destroy 50 signal jammers hidden around Los Santos. This guide will help players locate all 50 of the jammers to recruit Avi Schwartzman.

The game writes Avi as a character who has slightly lost their mind as during his time on the island, he talks about speaking with animals. Avi also mentioned Lester was a part of a murder in the past. Minor events like these bring tons of character to Los Santos.
