Renowned for its open-world sandboxes, Rockstar is known for filling its games with hidden gems that have become legendary in the gaming community. From surreal surprises like a heart inside GTA 4's Statue of Happiness to UFOs in Red Dead Redemption 2's skies, Rockstar's penchant for the bizarre ensures that Grand Theft Auto 6 will continue this tradition with its own set of mysteries.
After nearly a decade of anticipation, Grand Theft Auto 6 has been confirmed, promising a mix of drama and satire in its storyline. While the game's tone appears to be more serious, the classic Rockstar humor hints at the return of a beloved recurring joke.
The Sasquatch's Legacy in Grand Theft Auto 6
Tracing the Origins of Rockstar's Sasquatch Urban Myth
The Sasquatch urban myth dates back to 2004's Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, where players speculated about a Bigfoot roaming the game's forests and mountains, despite no official presence. Over the years, Rockstar teased fans with Sasquatch encounters in games like Red Dead Redemption and GTA 5, culminating in various missions and Easter eggs involving the mythical creature.
Incorporating the Sasquatch into Grand Theft Auto 6 aligns with the game's humorous undertones and exploration of urban legends, creating a perfect fit for players familiar with Rockstar's quirky traditions.
