Secrets and Easter Eggs in Grand Theft Auto V

110 View2025-04-23

There is a hidden Alien Egg in the game files that can be spawned using third-party trainers. The egg glows in the dark when spawned.

The Alien Egg was eventually added to GTA Online in the Gun Running update as supplies that the player can steal. To trigger the mission, the player must complete 600 resupply missions and start a new one between 21:00 and 23:00. If all conditions are met, the game may randomly begin the Alien Egg supply mission.

Alien in the Ice

In Ludendorff, North Yankton, underneath the train bridge the crew passes in the Prologue, there is a frozen creek. The player is able to drive down an embankment and onto the ice, where an alien is visible, frozen underneath it.

It can also be found during the mission Bury the Hatchet.

Collector's Edition Black Light Map

Using a black light/UV light on the blueprint map that comes with the Collector's Edition reveals markings, map legends, secrets and text. Most of the things that appear are pointing towards the existence of UFOs. Three of the collectible Spaceship Parts are also shown in the map.

UFOs

Multiple UFOs can be seen, most of them only after 100% Completion is obtained. Three appear in the sky and one appears underwater.

One of the UFOs appears above Fort Zancudo. The words "segregate and rearrange" are written on the side. Segregate being an anagram, when rearranged, it spells out "Easter egg". On the bottom of the ship, an unknown device can be seen rotating around. From 3AM to 4AM, a spinning green light will be projected on top of one of the fort's buildings, marking the UFO's location.

Another UFO appears above the Beam Me Up area in Sandy Shores. This craft appears to have "FIB" written on the side, a likely reference to the conspiracy theory of government surveillance.

A second UFO with "FIB" markings appears above Mount Chiliad. This UFO can only be seen at 3AM in stormy weather.

A third UFO, the same model as the previous two, though without the "FIB" markings, is located underwater, north of Paleto Bay and Procopio Beach, covered in plants. Unlike the previously mentioned UFOs, this is the only "real" one that the player can see without having to 100% complete the game.

Another UFO, presumed to be a mock-up, though making similar sounds to the "real" UFOs, can be seen embedded in the roof of Bishop's WTF?! on Vinewood Boulevard.

If the player shoots a gun, launches grenades, throws molotov cocktails, or fires rockets at a protagonist's house while playing as another protagonist, they will receive an angry call or text telling them to stop.

If the player sneaks around a protagonist's house as another protagonist, they will receive a text asking if they are the one sneaking around.

If the player steals a protagonist's vehicle as another protagonist, they will receive a text asking them if they've seen it or if they were the one who took it, followed by an angrier, slightly threatening phone call.

If Franklin or Trevor steal one of Michael's family members' cars, he will send a text, either insulting them or telling them to return it, depending on whose car was stolen.
