Darko Brevic

Background

Darko Brevic is the man who betrayed Niko Bellic's army unit in Grand Theft Auto IV. He served in the same fifteen-man unit as Niko and Florian Cravic during the Yugoslav wars and sold them out to the enemy for money, leading to an ambush in which almost everyone was killed. After the war he drifted through Europe and fell into drug addiction, living off what little remained of his payment.

Events of Grand Theft Auto IV

For most of the story Darko is only a name. Niko searches for the man who betrayed the unit and first suspects Florian, who is living in Liberty City as Bernie Crane. After meeting Florian in Weekend at Florian's, Niko becomes certain that the traitor was Darko. United Liberty Paper uses its contacts to track Darko down and bring him to Liberty City as payment for Niko's work.

In That Special Someone Niko meets Darko at the airport. The man he has hunted for years turns out to be a broken drug addict who admits what he did and seems almost indifferent to his fate. Niko must decide whether to kill him or let him go.

Personality

Darko is wretched and nihilistic by the time he appears on screen. He offers no excuses beyond money and seems to have been punished by his own life already.

Relationships

• Niko Bellic and Florian Cravic are the surviving members of the unit he betrayed.

Trivia

• Darko is voiced by Michael Medeiros.
• His fate is one of Grand Theft Auto IV's moral choices and does not change the ending path.
