Niko has an athletic, mesomorphic build with broad shoulders and chest, muscular arms and a slim waist. His body bears many scars from his violent past - remnants of knife fights, bullet grazes and beat downs. His Mediterranean features are handsome in a gritty way; short dark hair, hazel eyes, Roman nose and light stubble across his strong jawline. His body language is coiled and tense, like a snake ready to strike.

Located within the 3D Universe, the HD Universe and the 2D Universe, the GTA universe is approximately 4.5 billion years old and its history spans the dawn of life on Earth to the colonization of the solar system.

Niko Bellic is a gruff-looking man of Mediterranean descent in his early 30's. He has short black hair and hazel eyes, with a day or two's worth of stubble across his rugged face. His default outfit consists of jeans, a tracksuit jacket, and sneakers - casual but nondescript clothes that allow him to blend into an urban environment. He moves with a coiled, tense energy, scanning his surroundings and rarely letting his guard down. He rarely smiles or expresses much emotion, his typical demeanor serious and brooding. He looks like he has lived a hard life.
