Easter eggs in video games need no introduction.
The fame involved in the hunt for those eager to find and enjoy the Easter eggs is unmoving.
Here, only the most relentless players ever get to unlock these gifts and learn their mysteries.
However, there are times when the Easter eggs become a confusing mystery.
Today, we list and explore five video game easter eggs nobody understands.
This is one of those moments where the developers ofMetro Exodushave somehow crossed it.
The reference is seen in the Caspian desert in the communications bunker map room.
You will spot a mini airplane placed in the 9th column in the 2001 row.
What the players couldn’t grasp is why they had it at all.
What intention did the 4A Games developers have?
The apparent reference to the 9/11 attack got players from around the world debating about the scenario.
Some wondered whether the developers were trying to make some sort of joke.
Or was it simply a reference indicating the end of an old era using a worldwide popular event?
The developers ofMetro Exodusnever came forward to explain the confusion.
Luckily, this event didn’t escalate further to mess up the reputation of 4A Game developers.
Nevertheless, the reason for referencing such a horrific time is simply unexplainable.
The fourth chapter of the game is where it all goes down.
After the good deed, kill the other woman by the fireplace.
Then they proceed to kill and torch three women’s corpses hung in the sheds nearby.
Now, go back to the fireplace to meet the unnerving giant pig.
The pig got attention for its enormous and tall stature.
It was so big that it outweighed the player’s character size.
While killing the pig came with goodies, it remains quite an unexplainable character in the game.
And back to our series of peculiar easter eggs.
Let’s see how it unfolds inDoom 3.
In the fourth area of the laboratories, you’ll hear a voice saying, Come here.
When you turn around, you’ll see bloody footprints from an invisible force on the ground.
The footprints fade, and the voice repeats, They took my baby.
Just then, you hear the cries of a child, which quickly turns into a hysterical laugh.
Without any further context in the game to explain the behavior, it’s pure nightmare fuel.
The Macarena peaked in the late 1990s when the game was released and petered out relatively quickly.
While it is still remembered today as a nostalgic relic, is it plausible that it will be?
Sure, it’s more of a stupid joke than anything.
This makes it evident that the statue is somehow alive, which might seem like a funny joke.
