The greatest part of Cyberpunk 2077 is Night City, one of the most alive, immersive, realized, and beautiful cities ever created in a video game. The megalopolis is brimming with life and content, and of course, lots of Easter Eggs, like the aforementioned homage to GTA San Andreas.
In the game, there are two characters dubbed Little Smoke and JC, which is a play on the GTA San Andreas’ protagonist CJ and its villain Big Smoke. In the game, there’s a journal featuring dialogue between the two characters that references GTA San Andreas mission, Wrong Side of the Tracks, which is easily one of the most iconic missions in all of Grand Theft Auto. Better yet, players can find these characters in the game, but unfortunately, they are dead. That said, continuing the homage is a half-eaten hamburger next to Little Smoke’s body.

For now, this appears to be the only GTA Easter Egg in the game. That said, it’s a good one from the best Grand Theft Auto game, and the third-best game from Rockstar Games behind only Bully and Red Dead Redemption 2.
