The Grand Theft Auto series is known for its intense stories of crime, revenge, and redemption, but the games are not without an aspect of frivolity, which notably come in the form of easter eggs.
Like previous games in the series, Grand Theft Auto 5 comes with a bevy of easter eggs, some of which were spotted by the keenest of eyes and uploaded to YouTube for all to enjoy.
