Guides Cheats
How cheats work in GTA V
Three ways to enter cheats in Grand Theft Auto V, plus the catch with achievements.
Three ways to enter a cheat
- Controller: enter the button sequence during gameplay.
- Phone: dial the cheat's number on the in-game phone. This works on current consoles and PC.
- PC: type the code into the cheat console, opened with the ~ key (¬ on UK keyboards).
The catch
Using a cheat disables achievements and trophies. GTA BOOM says this lasts for the rest of the current play session; reloading a save from before you cheated restores them. Don't save while cheats are active.
Story mode only
Cheats work in GTA V's story mode, not GTA Online.
