GTA 5 (opens in new tab) just keeps getting more interesting. And yes, by interesting I mean the discovery that you can play the game as a giant hairy ape – no, not you, Trevor. In a thoroughly intense Reddit thread, rkRusty (opens in new tab) has discovered a gold peyote plant that if you eat it, transforms you into Bigfoot himself.
Interests had piqued when a new GTA 5 achievement dropped last week. Named ‘Cryptozoologist’ its description is ‘You unlocked all animals for use in Director Mode… or did you?’ which led many to believe that there was a creature that was yet to be discovered. Audio files were discovered which suggested that this was Mr Foot himself.
After some intense research and finding sets of co-ordinates in a set of script files that match existing peyote plants, rkRusty went through the map, labelling plants as he went. Some co-ordinates were left over and it was this that led to the discovery of the new plant. Located at -1472.531, 4439.456, 18.862, the gold peyote can apparently only be discovered between 5.30 and 8am when the weather is foggy on PC or snowy on console.
There’s a full set of requirements on rkRusty’s post (opens in new tab) but you’ll need to have completed the game – 100% not required – and found the other 27 peyotes. The location is below. Good luck.
