How to start the Cayo Perico Heist
The first step in starting the new heist is to visit the Music Locker, a new nightclub located under the Diamond Casino & Resort that has been added to the game with the latest update. You will receive a text message from Miguel Madrazo upon logging into GTA Online, and he invites you to meet him at the club to discuss a business opportunity. After a long cutscene, it's time to start the preparations.
To start the Cayo Perico Heist, you must purchase the Kosatka Submarine from Warstock Cache and Carry. Open the web browser on your in-game smartphone, navigate to the Warstock Cache and Carry website, and select Kosatka to start customizing it. The submarine starts at $ 2. If you add additional features like a sonar station, guided missiles, or a weapons workshop, the price can quickly increase. With all upgrades, the Kosatka submarine costs $ 200. These are all the upgrades for the submarine:
- Station Sonar - USD 1
- Guided missiles - USD 1
- Weapons workshop - $ 350
- Moon Pool (Sparrow) vehicles - $ 1
- Moon Pool vehicles (Kraken Avisa) - $ 1
Once you've purchased the submarine, it should automatically appear on the map. Alternatively, you can request it by holding the touchpad to bring up the interaction menu, selecting Services, and then choosing Kosatka. If the submarine is already active, look for it on your map off Los Santos. Go to your newly purchased submarine to continue the heist. It's a long way off the coast so you may need to request a dinghy if you don't have a boat. You can do this by selecting Request Dinghy from the Kosatka menu just under the Request option.
As you enter the submarine, you watch a short cutscene. Once done, you can start setting up the heist. You can use the Kosatka for other things, but the heist is the big draw here. However, you must first become a CEO, President or VIP. Hold the touchpad to display the interaction menu and select SecuroServ / Motorcycle Club to become one. With all of the introductory material out of the way, visit the control desk to access the planning screen and start the Cayo Perico heist.
