Overview

  • The Hammerhead Choppa is a new Chapter 6 Season 4 transport helicopter that carries squads, has no built‑in weapons, and allows passengers to fire their own guns.
  • Outlets agree Choppas spawn at OXR HQ and Infested Outposts on marked landing pads, with testers reporting high spawn reliability though other players can take them first.
  • Spawn counts conflict across reports: Destructoid has identified four locations, GameSpot lists five guaranteed spawns plus three possible spots, and Polygon reports six guaranteed with three at OXR HQ.
  • Basic controls mirror other vehicles: lift off with jump or primary fire, descend with aim or alternate fire, use sprint for a short boost, and swap seats to pilot or shoot.
  • A Choppa‑specific week 3 task uses the onboard loudspeaker, which can be toggled via the emote button, and another quest requires dealing damage from over 50 meters while riding.
