The following is a list of secrets, Easter eggs, and hidden trivia references in Grand Theft Auto IV.
Easter eggs
- In Three Leaf Clover with Patrick McReary, if you position the camera properly you can look inside his head - inside there is a box with a picture of a brain on it.
- Within the Statue of Happiness is a giant beating heart, supposedly the 'Heart of Liberty City.' In GTA IV, access into the area is only achievable via an entrance marked by a 'No Hidden Content This Way' sign at the upper level of the the statue's pedestal, which can only be reached by helicopter. Once inside the pedestal, the player must scale a ladder up to the midsection of the statue, where the heart is located. In The Ballad of Gay Tony if you drink too much you will respawn at random locations, one of which may be the Heart of Liberty City.
- If you look at the lake in Middle Park by map or helicopter, you'll notice it is in the shape of an alien.
- In northern Alderney, where you make the jump in the mission Out of Commission, there is a person doing tai-chi on top of a high rock which is impossible to get to without a helicopter or trainer.
- At the Firefly Projects, there is a park with a swing set. If you drive backwards (or forwards with some vehicles; Voodoo) onto it, the swing set will catapult the vehicle you're in high in the air. This is likely a bug in the game's physics simulation. See Swing Glitch article for more details.
- While driving the Mr. Tasty, you can trigger songs to play by clicking the horn. One of these songs is the song from the opening credits of GTA IV. While this song is playing, call ZiT and they will text you back with 'ZiT! Spotted GTA IV Theme'. This is a cheat that gives the player health, armor and ammo, but also disables some achievements.
- When you acquire your Second Safehouse in Bohan, when you exit the front door, over the road, you can see a random NPC talking about the end of the world and the apocalypse. Enter the building next to him and after you get up a few stairs, in a passage you can see blood and a pistol on a floor.
- During one of Brucie's mission 'Easy as Can Be', If you look on the lower part of his stomach, you will see a tattoo that says 'Mommy' on his stomach. You will be able to see that when he has his shirt off.
- At all TW@ internet cafes, behind the cashier's desk, and also inside various vehicle dealerships the screen of the Kakagawa Power Ultra 3000 Pro photocopier reads: ERROR Unleash ninja guru lol. This can only be seen through the scope of a Sniper Rifle.
- If you take a helicopter ride from Brucie Kibbutz, or you go for a helitour, there's an unsettling warning message about the helicopter inside the cockpit that you can see if you look in first person mode that says 'This helicopter might crash but we really don't care if it does, refer to flight manual for help.'
- In The Lost and the Damned, the dash of the Rhapsody has a sticker of Wayne and Garth from the movie Wayne's World.
- While playing multiplayer, all TV's in safehouses show the game's pause menu without the map.
- In the Northern Alderney car wash and gas station, parked cars may have their hazard lights on. If you drive the car, they will still be on.
Secrets
- Behind an old, rundown mansion in Westdyke, Alderney at the end of the dirt roads, there is the hidden, extremely rare Sultan RS parked in some bushes. This is practically the only way to find the car ingame. The only other way to obtain it is if the game has it stored in the temporary memory, and automatically spawns it parked and driving around the streets.
- On the west side of Happiness Island there is a random spawn that can be a car. This is unusual as there is no way a vehicle can be brought on to the island unless unloaded by a ship.

- On the staircases in most apartment blocks in the game, some graffiti pay homage to past protagonists set in GTA III canon (Claude, Tommy Vercetti, Carl Johnson, Toni Cipriani, and Victor Vance) in the form of scribblings of their names on the walls. Writings such as 'remember tommy, u r still my hero' or 'we always remember u bro' may be a possible reference to the gamer fandom towards the characters.
- Numerous companies from the GTA III era (for example Sprunk, Burger Shot and Maibatsu) return in GTA IV.
- One of the TV shows is a program called The Venturas Poker Challenge. It features a casino in Las Venturas from GTA San Andreas. When shown, the commercial doesn't have GTA IV graphics and art, it features GTA San Andreas graphics, the most obvious being the Taxi.
- In Star Junction there is sign for Love Fist. Love Fist was featured in GTA Vice City, and was also on a sign in GTA San Andreas and GTA Liberty City Stories.
- In the apartment in Bohan, next to the coffee table and in front of the bed, are a few CDs laying on the floor. Zoom in with a sniper to see that one of the CDs is by OG Loc from GTA San Andreas. There is also one by Madd Dogg.
- There is a laundromat in Alderney called Mr. Wong's Laundromat; this is presumably a nod to that particular location.
- When Playboy X is killed, it is possible to go to his apartment and open the wardrobe to get a change of clothes that look like the clothing of Claude, the protagonist of Grand Theft Auto III.
- On the front of some Liberty Tree newspapers is Donald Love, who disappeared in GTA III.
- The Securicars are owned by the Gruppe Sechs security firm (also seen in GTA III and Vice City), although in GTA IV the name is rendered as 'Gruppe 6'. 'Sechs' is the German word for Six and 'Gruppe' means group.
- In the bars are postcards featuring Vice City. Vice City is also advertised in airfare billboards near the airport.
- The 'Pager' ringtone on Niko's cell phone is the pager sound from GTA III.
- Niko can receive an email from Chiliad8888, which calls the recipient 'Pilgrim', makes many spiritually- and philosophically-charged (and anti-government) comments, ends with 'Feel the Truth, Live the Freedom', and links to whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com. On this website there is a discussion topic titled, 'Jump to a new level of Spirituality' posted by 'Trooth'. This discussion thread includes more philosophical thoughts, mentions peyote, and provides a map of the Unique Stunt Jumps in Liberty City. 'Chiliad' was also the name of a location in San Andreas (the highest mountain, in the southwestern wilderness). These clues suggest that the author of the email and discussion topic is The Truth, a character from GTA San Andreas.
- On Happiness Island, in front of the entrance to the statue, it is possible to find a street-artist's easel/display stand with several pictures. These pictures are all concept works of many previous GTA characters. The easel can also be seen in south-central Algonquin, very close to where Hossan'srandom encounter takes place and in front of the The Libertonian.
- A while after the mission Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, the news reports that a homeless man, Jerry Kapowitz, found the diamonds used in the exchange and planned to use the money to open a gun store in Vice City.
- If you look closely at the chart behind Gerry on the prison, you can see the penis-shape drawing the students at GTA 3 had drew.
- On the road that takes you on the East Borough Bridge from Dukes to Charge Island, the first building on the left has graffiti with paintings of past GTA character such as Misty, 8-ball in his convict outfit, the women in a bathing suit on the front cover of Vice City game box,and more.
- A Fruntalot billboard in Algonquin shows a man who is said to be Carl Johnson, the protagonist of GTA San Andreas.
- During a multiplayer race in GTA IV if the player equips a certain Female face (possibly 2) then hits a car in traffic or another player's car while pressing the talk button (L1 PS3), the character will sometimes exclaim,'This isn't San Andreas you hippie, DRIVE!' in reference to the wreckless AI driving found in the streets and nearly all intersections of San Andreas, such as the area where accidents happen the most, the Las Venturas sign.
- In multiplayer, if one player kills another with a vehicle, the HUD may say that they 'gouranga'd' the other player. This is a reference to Grand Theft Auto 1, where if the player runs over a line of Hare Krishnas, they get a Gouranga bonus.
- Lazlow is referenced several times as resuming his career, and reference is made to the radio station he worked for in an earlier GTA III-era game.
- On the west side of Firefly Island, along the beach, the player may encounter a woman shooting photographs. (If Niko stands near her, she'll turn and take a photo of him, too.) This may be a reference to a unique photo-taking NPC seen in San Andreas' Flint County not far from a road bridge into western Los Santos.
