The Kraken Kraken is a sub-aquatic vehicle exclusively featured in the enhanced version of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Design
Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online
The Kraken appears to be quite similar to the Submersible, particularly its bright yellow color and construction. It is based on the Triton line of miniature submersibles, namely the Triton 1000/3.
The submersible is made up of a main cabin, with a large bubble-shaped glass canopy at the front end. As opposed to its real-life counterpart, the Kraken has its overall shape altered to a more boxy design. On either side of the cockpit are two engine units, with headlights facing forward on each one. The hatch door is located at the top of the cockpit.
The interior features two main consoles with various gauges and two independent sticks.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online
The Kraken is faster and more maneuverable than the Submersible, given the twin propellers. However, despite the store description suggesting that it can go much deeper than other submersible vehicles, it has a similar depth limit of only 500 feet (152m) before being crushed by the water pressure, instantly killing the occupant.

Trivia
General
- A Kraken is a legendary sea monster of giant proportions that is said to dwell off the coasts of Norway and Greenland.
Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online
- Like its real-life counterpart, the Kraken's glass canopy is completely bulletproof, specially reinforced for underwater environment.
- The Kraken's headlight beams are not aligned with the actual headlights, as they appear to be projected slightly to the right of the headlight housing.
- On either side of the entrance hatch, there is a mixture of numbers and letters that read "4R53", Leet synonym for "ARSE". This writing is also present on the Submersible.
- Although there is no interior dials listed in the files, the gauges are just variations of dials found in basic aircraft. The same applies to the Submersible.
- The Kraken's depth alarm sounds at 150m under the surface.
