Complete GTA Cheat Codes Guide
The full rundown of GTA 5's console cheat codes, phone numbers, and what actually happens to your save when you use them.
GTA 5's cheat codes are still some of the most-used in the series, whether you're revisiting Los Santos or just want to mess around before GTA 6 arrives. Here's how they work and the most useful ones across every platform.
How to Enter Cheats
On PS4/PS5 and Xbox One/Series X|S, cheats are entered using button combos on the d-pad and face buttons while in story mode — not through a menu. Type them quickly; a small confirmation message appears on screen once entered correctly. On next-gen consoles and PC, you can also dial cheat phone numbers using your in-game phone instead of memorizing button sequences.
Console Button Codes
Max Health & Armor (PS4/PS5): Circle, L1, Triangle, R2, X, Square, Circle, Right, Square, L1, L1, L1
Invincibility (Xbox): Right, A, Right, Left, Right, RB, Right, Left, A, Y
Give Weapons and Ammo (PS4/PS5): Triangle, R2, Left, L1, X, Right, Triangle, Down, Square, L1, L1, L1
Slow Motion Aim (PS4/PS5): Square, L2, R1, Triangle, Left, Square, L2, Right, X
Drunk Mode (PS4/PS5): Triangle, Right, Right, Left, Right, Square, Circle, Left
Xbox equivalents swap buttons directly: A for X, B for Circle, X for Square, Y for Triangle, RB for R1, LB for L1, RT for R2, LT for L2.
Phone Number Cheats
If you don't want to memorize button sequences, dial these directly on your in-game phone:
- Drunk Mode: 1-999-547-861
- Slow Motion: 1-999-756-966
- Slow Motion Aim: 1-999-332-3393
- Weapons: 1-999-8665-87
What Cheats Actually Do to Your Save
Using any cheat disables achievements and trophies for the remainder of that play session. It doesn't corrupt or permanently affect your save file — reload without entering a cheat and trophies work normally again. Cheats only function in single-player story mode; none of them work in GTA Online.
FAQ
Do cheat codes work in GTA Online?
No — cheats only function in single-player story mode.
Does using a cheat code permanently disable my trophies?
No, only for that session. Reloading a save without cheats restores normal trophy tracking.
Can I use cheats on PC the same way as console?
On PC, cheats are typically entered by opening the console and typing text commands rather than button combos, though phone number cheats also work.
Will GTA 6 have similar cheat codes?
Rockstar hasn't confirmed cheat code support for GTA 6 yet.
Conclusion
GTA 5's cheat codes remain simple to use once you know the inputs — just remember they're single-player only and will pause your trophy progress until you reload clean.
