1. Battlefield 4 (Megalodon) - Gather a bunch of your buddies around the buoy on the Battlefield IV map Nansha Strike. Spawn the giant shark for a feast.
2. Just Cause 4 (Take on Me) - There's actually a surreal easter-egg that mimics the style of the song "Take On Me" by a-ha. The 3d rendering isn't as full of quality as the video's frame-by-frame animation, but it gets the job done.
3. The Evil Within (The Dancing Evil) - In the Consequence DLC of The Evil Within, it is possible to hit the vending machine about fifteen times to unlock a peephole. What's inside is a bit crazy.
4. Battlefield V (Crab Music Festival) - There is a far-fetched secret hidden on the Wake Island map of Battlefield V. By finding five crabs and doing a bunch of vinyl record hunting, players can play the Battlefield theme on a gramophone and see the crabs dance to the music.
5. Battlefield V (Handgun) - Players can use a literal handgun in BFV if they can find the hidden box that's mounted with a spade and lights up green. After a bit of chasing and digging, players can find just the right thing that lets them use their hands as the gun.
6. Firewatch (Nintendo 64) - Firewatch pays homage to the Nintendo 64 by including a game cartridge and mini-game on the game's Switch version.
7. The Evil Within 2 (4th Wall Break) - A well-thought fourth wall break awaits if the players backtrack all the way to the first in-game location and meet O'Neal. This one is worth checking out for the laughs at www.youtube.com/watch?v=23UAgn6x_2I
8. Battlefield Hardline (Crocodile Gun) - There's a crocodile gun in Battlefield Hardline that can be accessed by hitting every skinned rabbit and giving it to Chomp. In case you ever thought about how it feels like to use a crocodile as a weapon, here's your chance.
9. The Talos Principle (Behind The Moon) - The 2014's amazing puzzle game has a closely-knit secret easter egg related to Portal 2 and Wheatley. Players can turn the moon to actually see Wheatley stranded on the lunar giant with the Aperture Laboratories logo.
10. Dying Light (Excalibur) - It may seem utterly useless to hold the button when it may seem to do nothing at first. But keep holding long enough, and the main character will retrieve the Excalibur sword from the hidden location. Sadly, the weapon is not too good to use.
11. Far Cry 4 (Alternate Ending) - This one is absolutely crazy hidden secret, as it allows the players to end the game in about 15 minutes of waiting at the beginning of the game. Spoilers - Pagan Min will actually return and tell Ajay that he'll help him out with honoring his mother's ashes.
12. Gone Home (Cats) - In the first-person exploration video game, players can actually enjoy a random cat video play on the tv. All they have to do is find the secret ball and dunk it through the basket ring behind the door.
13. Call of Duty Black Ops III (Mannequin Are Alive) - If the players shoot the heads or arms off the Manequinns in the Nuketown 2025 map, things will get weird real soon.
14. The Stanley Parable (Secrets) - After the players are prompted to step on the elevating platform. They can wait for a few minutes, go back and press the glass bulb button again for literal secrets.
15. Just Cause 4 (Getting Over It) - Just Cause 4 may not be the best title in the franchise, but it carries one of the best secrets. The game has the popular Getting Over It game hidden in it.
16. Futurama (Intergalactic Easter Egg) - The 2003 Futurama game for PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox has an inter-galactic easter egg that Players discovered almost 15 years later. After collecting a certain amount of money and smashing the tv for some reason, players can actually see an intergalactic Easter Egg.
17. Gears of War 3 (Mini-Game) - If the players can shoot the coins located on the distant trees in Act 2, Chapter 2 – House of Sand, there's actually a hidden mini-game waiting. Players can access the reward by entering the foggy area on the map.
18. Halo 3 (Birthday Wish) - If the players boot the game on December 25th and press both the analog sticks down, they'll see a lovely birthday message from the developer to his wife right on the Halo ring. It's kind of hard to read on the moving ring, but that's because it's meant to be a secret.
19. Donkey Kong (Programmers Initials) - The list would be incomplete if we didn't talk about at least one ridiculous secret. Playing the classic Donkey Kong in a specific manner with a specific score actually unlocks a unique screen with the developer's initials "LMD" on it. What's crazy is players discovered this little secret 26 years later.
20. Grand Theft Auto III (The Sign) - There's actually a hidden sign in an inaccessible GTA III area that tells the players this. The same sign returns in Liberty City stories, but this time it says something else.
21. Resident Evil 4 (Hidden Developer) - Even in decade-old games like Resident Evil 4, developer pictures are hiding in the distance. This secret can be seen in chapter 5, outside the map.
22. Half-Life 2 (G-Man’s Last Hidden Location) - As crazy as it may sound, but a valve employee finally revealed g-Man's last location years after the game's release. It's kind of mindblowing.
23. Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze (Metroid’s Aliens) - There's actually a way to see Metroid's Aliens in Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze if the players choose to exit and backtrack in the underwater cavern.
24. Call Of Duty: Black Ops III (Family Picture) - Developers love hiding personal messages in-game, and this is exactly what happened in Black Ops III. At the beginning of Der Eisendrach, players can set up planks and purchase specific guns in a specific manner to unlock the door and see a family photo of the developer Drew Marlowe.
25. Splinter Cell Double Agent (Hidden Seals) - It's just bizarre that a sci-fi spy game such as Splinter Cell would feature talking alien seals. But it does that and in a really funny manner. There's a total of 5 seals to be saved, after which they thank Sam Fisher and fly through a portal.
26. PlayStation VR Worlds (Big Head) - Not the best game on the list, but VR Worlds was probably one essential game for the PSVR. Here's a little-known funny secret in the game, if the players push the d-pad buttons twice in a clockwise motion, something big happens.
27. Shadow Of Tomb Raider (Deleted Ending) -There's actually a hidden ending in the third Tomb Raider game that teases Natla, Lara Croft's nemesis. However, it was blocked by the developers with one of the first game updates.
28. Fallout 76 (Secret Developer Area) - Who would've known that there's actually a secret developer room in an online-only game such as Fallout 76? Many players were smart and lucky enough to tap into this little secret in time and snatch important stuff out.
29. Grand Theft Auto V (Teen Wolf) - There's actually a way to spawn Teen Wolf from the cult classic 1985 movie starring Michael J. Fox. Here's a great video that shows just that - www.youtube.com/watch?v=8v5vMjsdtmk
30. Witcher 3 (Developer Photo) - Witcher 3 has its fair share of fun secrets lying around throughout the campaign. But it's the developer picture hidden outside the playable map area that takes the cake for being one hard-to-find secret.

1. Battlefield 4 (Megalodon) - Gather a bunch of your buddies around the buoy on the Battlefield IV map Nansha Strike. Spawn the giant shark for a feast.
2. Just Cause 4 (Take on Me) - There's actually a surreal easter-egg that mimics the style of the song "Take On Me" by a-ha. The 3d rendering isn't as full of quality as the video's frame-by-frame animation, but it gets the job done.
