When Are Armored Trucks Coming Back To GTA Online?

Alongside the official announcement from Rockstar today, leakers found a folder full of files for the Armored Trucks in the files for the San Andreas Mercenaries update, suggesting that the vehicles might be coming to the game sooner than anyone expected.

The San Andreas Mercenaries update was released on 13th June 2023, but the Armored Trucks weren't included. With Rockstar stating that the feature is coming to the game "this summer," it's likely that players will be able to first find Armored Trucks as early as late June to as late as August.
