TV producer and environmentalist Frank Mathers has drowned in a submarine accident. Mr. Mathers, who was obsessed by under sea exploration, was testing a new submarine in the ocean near Paleto Bay when his submarine's system malfunctioned causing the submarine first to sink and then break apart. His body has not yet been recovered (...)

Submarine Pieces are a collectible in Grand Theft Auto V.

Description[]

There are 30 pieces of the submarine belonging to the late producer Frank Mathers, scattered around San Andreas, which the player must find and collect. These collectibles are tied to Abigail Mathers's Strangers and Freaks mission strand, unlocked after Blitz Play and the purchase of the Sonar Collections Dock in Paleto Cove.

After the property is acquired by any protagonist, Michael De Santa may encounter Abigail Mathers at the dock, where she talks about the recent death of her husband, who drowned while he was testing a submarine. Michael mentions rumors that someone tampered with the airlock, which Abigail quickly denies, claiming nothing was ever proven. She then asks Michael to find all the pieces of the submarine, so she can prove that Frank is dead and collect his life insurance, and also be able to "sleep much easier".

Any of the three protagonists can collect the pieces; however, only Michael can return them to Abigail. The mission What Lies Beneath is unlocked once all 30 pieces are collected.

This collectible is related to Michael De Santa, therefore it is missable content and not required for the 100% completion.

Availability[]

The Submarine Pieces are made available upon starting the Strangers and Freaks mission Death at Sea. Their locations are indicated by the sonar ping on the radar when the player is near the wreckage site. The Dinghy and Minisub provide scuba gear when exiting them at sea.

Rewards[]

Collecting all Submarine Pieces is required to progress through Abigail Mathers' Strangers and Freaks mission strand. There is no additional reward for collecting each submarine piece whatsoever.
