April fools easter eggs in games

benjii · 14 May 2014 at 11:35

So I was just browsing the 1.4 patch notes for Thief and I noticed something:

Fixed an issue where when finishing a chapter, the user would be brought back to the start. That primarily occurred around the April 1st.

It seems like some programmer thought it would be funny to add that.

It got me thinking, what other easter eggs have been included in games for April fools?

War Thunder - Add 'Ponyland Air Force'. All planes are multicoloured ponies with the flight model of a high-end jet but with many overpowered guns, rockets, bombs and tiny hitboxes. This year they added 'Gaijilla' (after the company, Gaijin Entertainment), a giant snail you had to attack/defend

I was dissapointed by that, I was hoping for the Super Adventure Box.
