The ability to play as and confront strange creatures in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online isn't incredibly new. From being able to play as Bigfoot to a variety of furry animals, it isn't outlandish to find a way to encounter something like aliens.

While aliens can be seen in Grand Theft Auto V via an encounter as part of Michael De Santa's imagination, as well as through a UFO that can be seen above Mount Chiliad, the game never lets you play as one in any significant way. However, thanks to some GTA Online players, there are now gameplay clips showing players in alien outfits terrorizing the city of Los Santos.

In the above clip, a gang of aliens wait outside a hoity-toity clothing shop, only to attack an innocent patron who walks out of it with axes. The crew then flees in an appropriately-colored green van.

The Reddit clip from traderrjoe gives us a glimpse of an alien who abducts a willing GTA Online player, only to lead them to their inevitable death in a trailer. A gang of several aliens beat him with baseball bats.

The above video shows yet another antagonistic group of aliens chasing after a seemingly innocent fellow GTA Online player, looking to beat them down by stomping their body. It appears Reddit user lil_chanclaso was successful in their manhunt, despite the fact that the on-foot chase bled into the freeway.

In a somewhat different video above, a gang of GTA Online players donned different-looking alien outfits, yet with an identical intention of beating down other Los Santos frequenters. The frequenters, in this, were equally as antagonistic and faced a loss in the end.

In this video, two players are in the usual green alien garb who nonetheless take to the streets to teach another GTA Online player an unclear lesson.

Players are very capable of producing wacky and comical moments in GTA Online, and the thought of gangs of aliens harassing Los Santos citizens is funnier than it sounds. This is especially true in practice, as seen in the Reddit videos.

If only there were an extraterrestrial-related multiplayer update that allowed players to step in the shoes of full-on aliens akin to those in Michael's imagination.
