The Potential End
Hey all, big time lurker but not much of a contributor here. But I’m taking some advice and sharing a lot of information and theory’s that not everyone is familiar with for the holidays and just maybe reignite the hunt in some of you. To be honest this is all worked on by a small (like counting on one hand) group on discord.
So the hunt took quite a dip in its existing community after a DLC released called the doomsday heist (
https://www.rockstargames.com/videos/video/12014 )in which Rockstar distributed a Jetpack in December 2017. The covenant item most hunters were searching for since the games release. So in turn most took this as a sign the mystery was over and started to give up the hunt. If all you wanted was a Jet pack then this was a way for closure I guess from the devs.
And here is where I picked up the mystery at the beginning of 2018, at seemingly it’s end. I came at it with the question “is there anything left”?
Since everyone was focused on Chiliad, the Jetpack and just it’s Mural I was focused on everything else unanswered. Mainly what’s known as Karma, cults (such as the Epsilon program) the other Murals and influenced Illuminati mysteries. Of course sticking to things relevant to gameplay and trying not to board the crazy train, but there is so many unanswered questions left. What this lead to is the possibility that there’s still a greater mystery to be solved and that its associated with GTAV main story.

There was already a great collection of clues and connections already assembled by community contributors in both YouTube and Reddit. So huge thanks to the efforts of Jetpack Jones, MusicVidiot, Trippy Comms, Kim F, Shad, Dibbes, Kyors Power, old posts from Mania Farm and much more. Though no one got everything right… everyone did however get something right along the way. And I hope these individuals (and you) get inspired to take another crack at it and combine their efforts like they once did. Because the story is only the beginning.

The Order of Things
The Methodology to solving this mystery is similar to solving say FNAF. You need to take time to acquire solid knowledge of the games story and events in order to recognize the clues when they emerge. For GTAV the next part is recognizing that a lot of these clues are hidden in plain sight. It could be dialogue, billboards, tattoos, cults and even something like a businesses logo. The range of these clues is basically everything in the game and at times out of the game. Don’t be surprised if it appears that the entire game seems created around this mystery once you dive in. These clues help solve many steps and were used to solve the missions order. Solving the entire order was trickier then just knowing what heists to pick, but once you figure out where key missions are played a majority of other missions would fall into order naturally.
Digging though the Chiliad Mystery Reddit and Youtube it was found that the community a while back discovered some Red X’s in the 5 main heist in the game. Next some started theorizing they could be linked to the 5 boxes on this Chiliad Mural with its 5 red X’s. The heists these were found in went in sequence of A, B, A, B, B.

Now here is where things become more then coincidence. Some would later find it linked to lines of dialogue said by one of the main protagonist after smoking pot which can be seen here.

Now what was found is that depending on what heists you pick and if you choose to help one of the main characters family out or not (3 of them at different points of the game call for help) influences the number of missions you play. So following the Red X choices and the Epsilon cult saying “ignore your family”, we ended up with the total number on our replay list of missions at “68”.

After establishing this number then was found a series of clues that coincided and haven’t been linked before. The first was a car given to returning players from last gen to next with a Sprunk paint job. The paint job features the number 68 and a Red X.

Next is the main highway of the game known as Route 68 seen here.

The last couple connections found happened to be in the story itself. No matter how you play the order of your mission you always end up with a mission known as the Blitzplay in the middle of the story at mission 34.

Hidden within plane sight of one of the mission cutscene just happens to be the number 4386 that if turned backwards becomes 6834.

68 being total missions and 34 being the exact mission number this is shown. A short time after this mission you are present a side mission where a man offers a night with his wife in exchange for a favor. The address for the Motel this takes place ends up being 6834.

With what the existing community found in the past backed by new connections found recently we have been able to put together a great foundation of a very possible Theory that there is still something left in GTAV to find. We are further along then what is presented and to let you know this leads to everything from symbol Cyphers (such as the 3 characters having different Suns

My hopes with this post is to catch you up, spark some interest in you and possibly others to open their own investigation. To be honest fresh eye of the story maybe what takes this next level. If nothing else I hope your community at the least keep an eye on the progress of this recently dying mystery. If enough interest is shown I’ll post some updates.
But in any case just want to say Thanks for reading! Oh and like you say around here “it’s just a game theory!” (I’m so nerd
)
Any questions feel free. More recaps soon.
