Whether you’re setting out for the first time in Los Santos, or looking to spice up yet another playthrough, our GTA 5 cheats list is the best way to make it your ultimate playground. By using these cheats, you can bend gravity to your will, summon a sweet ride without a care in the will, or cause mayhem without worrying about those pesky cops. Here are all the GTA 5 cheats for you to use and abuse at will.
We’ve kept the PC console commands at the top, but—if you prefer playing with a controller—we’ve also supplied the input codes for Xbox and PS4 pads, as well as the easy-to-use phone codes, further down the page. They’re a bit harder to remember than the PC commands, but they work the same as they do on consoles.
Alas, there’s no GTA 5 money cheat, and naturally none of these codes work in GTA Online. If you’re wondering how to make wads of cash in multiplayer, we have an extremely detailed moneymaking guide for GTA Online, and a GTA Casino guide that explains how to win big in the Diamond Casino and Resort. You can also find the fastest cars in GTA Online here.
We won’t be getting GTA 6 any time soon, so there’s still plenty of time to max out your fun in GTA 5 with the help of these handy cheat codes. If you’re headed back to the past, you can also check out our list of GTA Vice City cheats or our round-up of GTA San Andreas cheats.
How to use GTA 5 cheat codes
Fortunately using cheat codes in GTA 5 is super easy. You’ll just need to remember the code word. If you don’t fancy keeping a notepad to hand, just bookmark this page and return whenever you need to remember how to swim faster.
To bring up GTA 5’s console, hit the tilde key (~), or whatever key is directly to the left of the 1 at the top of your keyboard. Type in any of the cheat codes below in all caps just as written. Hit enter and you’ve now become an official GTA 5 cheater. Spawn yourself a motorcycle and flaming ammo rounds if you like! We won’t judge.

GTA 5 cheats: Controller commands
More GTA 5 and GTA Online
If you happen to be playing GTA 5 with a controller on your PC, these codes are an alternate way to enter them. They’re a bit harder to remember than the console commands above but maybe your muscle memory is so good that you prefer the Konami Code style of cheat entry.
For the Xbox and PlayStation controller versions of each code, just enter the sequence of buttons in relatively quick succession and you’ll get an on-screen notification that you’ve succeeded. To use the phone numbers, just pull out your character’s cell and dial the code provided.
