GTA 3 hidden packages were the first time we saw this particular type of collectible in the series, before it became a recurring feature in different forms. In order to discover these Grand Theft Auto 3 hidden packages you need to explore the entirety of Liberty City, sometimes showing off your best parkour skills to scale rooftops and reach other out of the way locations. Finding them all isn't just a box-ticking exercise on the way to 100% completion, because they also unlock some great items that will help you deal with the challenges you face during the story. If you're set to start your collection, then read on for the locations of all 100 GTA 3 hidden packages, and details of the perks you'll receive for discovering them.

GTA 3 Hidden Packages Rewards
For each of the GTA 3 hidden packages you pick up you'll receive a $1,000 bonus, which is much more generous than in subsequent games. You'll also unlock the following weapon/item spawns at your safehouses for every 10 packages found:
- 10 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Pistol
- 20 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Uzi
- 30 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Grenades
- 40 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Shotgun
- 50 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Body Armor
- 60 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Molotov Cocktails
- 70 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: AK-47
- 80 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Sniper Rifle
- 90 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: M16
- 100 GTA 3 Hidden Packages: Rocket Launcher plus $1,000,000
Finding 20 GTA 3 hidden packages should be your initial goal, as this means you'll have a steady supply of Uzi ammo for drive-bys while in a vehicle. You should also aim to gather 50 packages as quickly as possible once you've unlocked the second island, as this means you'll always have a supply of Body Armor to keep protected as the combat difficulty increases during the story.
