Hidden Packages in GTA 5 (2024)

Contents

In GTA V, Hidden Packages are briefcases containing a specific amount of money. In appearance, they are just silver/gray briefcases that glow. Some briefcases even contain up to $25,000. 11 of these 16 briefcases can be found underwater and some even need diving equipment to be retrieved.

There are briefcases that spawn during random events as well. In the Altruist Cult Shootout, there are 4 briefcases each containing $25,000.

The Hidden Package locations are as follows:

1. Paleto Cove Briefcase ($12,000)
2. This case is sitting on the ocean floor in front of a detached airplane tail. Be aware that the other half of the plane is located farther down from the tail, hence you might find the plane wreckage first.
3. North Chumash Briefcase ($12,500)
4. This case is located inside another plane wreck. Swim under the plane to enter its belly. The case is sitting inside along with a few Submarine parts.
5. Zancudo Briefcase ($9,000)
6. This case is located on the top of a wrecked ship. This particular ship has several weapons pickups and a few Submarine parts as well.
7. Pacific Bluffs Briefcase ($25,000)
8. The case is sitting on top of a wrecked submarine just near the entrance hatch.
9. Los Santos Docks Briefcase ($11,000)

23. Random Event Briefcase - Chiliad Mountain State Wilderness, Blaine County($25,000)
24. This briefcase is a little down the hill where a random event has taken place. It looks like a deal gone wrong. A wounded man warns you not to touch the briefcase before passing out.

26. These Hidden Packages can only be obtained at the Altruist camp during or after Trevor’s mission. During the shootout, there will be four briefcases that show up in the camp with $25,000 each.

Each hidden package rewards you with a different amount of money ranging from $7,000 to $25,000.

1. Upon completing Rub Out in GTA Vice City, a Tiki statue broken in half with white powder spilling out of it can be found on the bar counter in the Ocean View Hotel suite. This is a reference to the Miami Vice episode "Milk Run", where cocaine was smuggled using similar Tiki statues.
2. In GTA San Andreas, a large "tiki statue", exactly the same as a hidden package in GTA Vice City, appears in the Tiki Theater in East Los Santos.
