If you’ve played GTA San Andreas, odds are you’ve probably run into a mysterious character with a very sharp haircut and a denim jacket at some point. Even though he’s nameless and can be found living umpteen different placeholder lives, it seems that Rockstar did actually put a fair amount of thought into his creation.
Yes, it’s the same developer who’s recently revealed what was going on behind the scenes to lead to GTA 3 getting a moon that changes shape whenever you shoot it with a sniper rifle and unfortunately dispelled the notion of San Andreas’ mirrors being gateways to the underworld. This time, he’s responded to a fan wondering about San Andreas’ ‘Unknown Guy’.
First of all, if you’re unfamiliar, the ‘Unknown Guy’ is an NPC pedestrian with the moniker “Male 01” in the game’s files. He can potentially be encountered in a huge array of situations and places throughout San Andreas, from being a regular pedestrian walking the streets, to being a possible member or associate of the Ballas gang – even popping up in some mission sequences, specifically during End of the Line. He’s also, according to the GTA Myths wiki at least, the game’s sole train driver.
