GTA 5 Cheat Codes: The Ultimate Reference Guide
Grand Theft Auto V remains one of the most popular open-world games ever made, and its cheat code system lets you bend the rules of Los Santos in wildly entertaining ways. Whether you want to summon a fighter jet, become invincible, or cause absolute chaos with explosive ammo, this guide has every working cheat code for all platforms.
How to Enter Cheat Codes in GTA 5
The method differs by platform:
- PlayStation (PS4/PS5): Press the button combination during gameplay (not in a menu or cutscene).
- Xbox (One/Series X|S): Same — enter the button sequence during active gameplay.
- PC: Press the ~ (tilde) key to open the console, then type the code and press Enter.
Important: Activating cheat codes disables Achievements and Trophies for that session. If you want your progress to count, save your game before entering any cheats.

Tips for Using Cheats Wisely
- Always save before activating cheats if you care about trophies or story progress.
- Invincibility only lasts 5 minutes — re-enter the code to refresh it.
- Cheats do not work in GTA Online — only in single-player story mode.
- Use the phone's keypad on console for faster code entry by saving the number in contacts.
