What You’ll Need to Know
Before we dive into the cheat codes, make sure you have the game installed and running on your console or PC. Make sure you’re playing Story Mode or Free Roam modes, as the cheat code will not work in Mission Mode.
Square Off Code:
The first cheat code for getting a helicopter in GTA 5 is the "Square Off" code. You’ll need to enter:
- Left on the D-pad
- Down on the D-pad
- Right on the D-pad
- Up on the D-pad
- RT
- RB (on Xbox) or R2 (on PS3/PS4)
- LTR
Press these buttons at the same time, and you’ll hear the helicopter’s distinctive sound signaling that it’s spawned! The helicopter will appear instantly, and you can enter it by approaching it with Franklin, Michael, or Trevor.
Ocean View Code:
The second and final cheat code for getting a helicopter in GTA V is the "Ocean View" code. You’ll need to enter:
- Down on the left stick
- Triangle (on PS3/PS4) or Y (on Xbox)
- RTL (on Xbox) or R1/L1 (on PS3/PS4) on both sticks
- RT (on Xbox) or R2 (on PS3/PS4) on both sticks
When you enter these buttons at the same time, you’ll spawn a Dhruv Duster, a military helicopter at the Downtown Strip, near the Gas Station. You’ll have to drive to that location to pick it up.
Pro Tips and Tricks
- The cheat codes work in Multiplayer mode as well, but you’ll only get a Dolak Favela’s Maverick helicopter in the Maze Bank Tower.
- To get a unique co-pilot, try landing your helicopter near a settlement or a major landmark to see if any NPCs enter the helicopter.
- Don’t forget to scope out the city during your helicopter ride! Flying around the city can offer stunning views and new photo opportunities.
- In the event of a bug, try restarting the console or PC, or rebooting the game to avoid any issues.
