How to use The Cayo Perico Heist Replay Glitch for infinite Panther Statues in GTA Online

GTA Online's infamous Heist Replay Glitch has been confirmed to work with The Cayo Perico Heist's Panther Statues. That means you will have the most worthwhile primary target for as long as you can continue to execute this exploit.

It is worth noting that The Cayo Perico Heist Replay Glitch can be used with any primary target. This article specifically focuses on Panther Statues due to the following reasons:

1. They have the best value out of any primary target
2. They're only available in specific event weeks

Most event weeks only feature one Panther Statue for the entirety of their duration. That can be a letdown, but this exploit allows you to farm the item forever as long as you execute it correctly.

To execute the Heist Replay Glitch on PC, you must do the following:

Tips for console players

Console players have to do something a little different to take advantage of the glitch. Here is what they have to do:

1. You must complete The Cayo Perico Heist with a friend.
2. If you're hosting, you need to close the game once your character hands in the envelope. Alternatively, your friend would need to exit their game if they're the host when their character hands in the envelope.
3. The person who isn't the host stays and receives the money. The host gets nothing.

Ideally, this means the host will give as much of the total take to their friend as possible. It is also recommended to praise the individual who quits to ensure they're not labeled as a "bad sport" by GTA Online. Subsequently, the heist can be restarted, and console gamers can follow the same steps.

The above video doesn't contain a Panther Statue, but the process shown may help console players visualize what they need to do for this Heist Replay Glitch to work.
