Grand Theft Auto was released more than two years ago, but diligent gamers continue to uncover hidden secrets and Easter eggs to this day. This time the big find revolves around the Sasquatch, or Bigfoot as it's more commonly known.

Bigfoot secrets are not new to the GTA series, with games from the Playstation 2 era previously teasing the mysterious creature's possible appearance.

Now however, we have real confirmation of the beast's presence in a Grand Theft Auto game. The find was discovered by Reddit users on the /r/ChiliadMystery subreddit, a popular online meeting place for GTA conspiracy theorists.

The Bigfoot sequence is triggered by taking a hidden package of peyote only accessible once a very specific set of conditions are met. Once the player ingests the secret drug, he will enter a playable sequence that lets them go on a drug-addled romp as Bigfoot.

According to user rkRusty, these criteria must be met to get the peyote to spawn:

• Must have completed the game (you do not need true 100% or gold in all missions/strangers and freaks)
• Spawns only on Tuesday from 5.30 to 8am
• Weather must be foggy (snow on PS4/XB1)
• Must have all 27 other peyote
• Must have spared the Sasquatch in 'The Last One' mission
• Not connected to the new 'Hunt the Beast' freemode events
• Completing the peyote earns you the 'Wild Animal' actor in Director mode
• There is no character monologue whilst playing as Sas, nor does Sas have a first person option
• The peyote DOES play the PEYOTE_ATTRACT_SASQUATCH audio file
• Can be replayed
• No trophy/achievement unlocked
• Franklin returns to reality in a fit of vomiting

Players were tipped to the easter egg due to a recent update released by Rockstar Games which hinted at the possibility of a Bigfoot appearance.
