We are practically counting down the days until GTA 6 drops. But somehow, for some ungodly reason, we are all still booting up Grand Theft Auto V.
Maybe it’s nostalgia. Maybe you just want to blow off steam after a terrible Tuesday. Whatever the reason, the internet’s obsession with cheat codes for this 13-year-old game is still alive and kicking, and honestly, the sheer muscle memory of typing these in on a D-pad is a cultural heritage at this point.
If you are reinstalling the game just to cause absolute chaos in Los Santos one last time, skip the grinding. Here are the only codes you actually need to care about.

The “I Just Want to Break Things” Starter Pack
Let’s be real. Nobody is playing the story mode legitimately anymore. You just want to survive a five-star wanted level on a BMX bike.
-
Invincibility (God Mode): On PC, type
PAINKILLER. On controller, it’s that classic Right, A, Right, Left, Right, RB, Right, Left, A, Y. You only get 5 minutes, which is super annoying, but it’s enough time to jump off the Maze Bank building and survive. -
Max Health & Armor:
TURTLE. Because stopping to eat snacks during a shootout with the FIB is a waste of time. -
All Weapons & Ammo:
TOOLUP. Why buy a rocket launcher when you can just manifest one out of thin air?
The “Pure Chaos” Mechanics
This is where the game actually gets fun. Combine these and you basically turn Michael, Franklin, or Trevor into a twisted Marvel villain.
-
Explosive Melee Attacks:
HOTHANDS. Punching a car and watching it explode will literally never get old. Never. -
Super Jump:
HOPTOIT. Hold down the jump button and you can clear a two-story house. -
Skyfall:
SKYFALL. No parachute. No plane. The game just drops you from the stratosphere. If you hit the ground head-first, you die instantly. But if you manage to land perfectly flat on your face? You somehow survive. Game physics, man.
Stop Stealing Cars Like a Peasant
You are a millionaire bank robber. Stop jacking random sedans in traffic.
-
Spawn a Buzzard Attack Chopper:
BUZZOFF. This is the only vehicle cheat you actually need. Driving across the map to Sandy Shores is miserable. Just spawn the helicopter with the missiles and get it over with. -
Spawn a Comet (Sports Car):
COMET. If you actually have to drive, at least make it fast.
The Friendly Reminder
Yes, using any of these will instantly disable your achievements and trophies for that play session. But let’s be serious—if you haven’t gotten the Platinum trophy for GTA 5 by the year 2026, it’s just not happening.
Memorizing these codes in 2013 was a flex. Typing them in today is just pure comfort gaming. Go blow up a blimp, you’ve earned it. 🚁💥
Would you like me to track down the codes for spawning other specific vehicles like the stunt plane or the trashmaster, or are you good with just the chopper?

How to Use GTA 5 Cheat Codes
There are two kinds of GTA V cheat codes: cell phone and button cheats. Before you can go entering cheats though, you’ll need to decide which cheat code type you want to enter. Here’s some information you may want to know about the two different types:
Button Cheats – Available on all gaming platforms, including PC, PS5, PS4, PS3, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. You will be required to enter the GTA 5 cheat codes using the gamepad, much like classic GTA games.
In order to activate cheats in GTA 5, whether it be PC, Xbox, or PlayStation, here’s our step-by-step walkthrough guide for entering and activating cheats in GTA 5:
Start up your copy of GTA 5 and load into the single-player campaign, as cheat codes can only be activated in-game.
Once in-game, be sure to save your game because entering cheat codes disables GTA 5 Achievements and Trophies, but only for the current play session. Restarting your game will return your ability to continue collecting and completing Achievement/Trophies.
If you have selected the Button Cheats option, use the D-pad to enter the directional commands – such as LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN. These codes must be executed fairly quickly, and if done correctly, a small confirmation will appear above the map.
How to Use GTA 5 Phone Cheats
Should you opt for the cell phone method, simply follow the steps below to use phone cheats in GTA 5:
Open your phone menu by pressing the Up arrow key or Up on the D-Pad.
Access the dial pad by clicking on Contacts.
Enter your desired cheat code, and dial the number.
If you have entered the correct number and successfully followed these instructions, you’ll receive a message stating the cheat has been activated.
THERE IS NO “INFINITE MONEY CHEAT”
No button cheat or cell phone command exists to spawn money into your account in single-player or GTA Online. However, our
Assassination Investor guide can help you earn up to $2.1 Billion in single-player!
GTA 5 Cheat Codes Not Working
If your cheat codes aren’t working in GTA 5, it could be due to the following reasons:You’re not inputting them fast enough
You’re not using the D-Pad to input directions (on controller)
You’re using cheats for the wrong platform
GTA V Director Mode
If you want to enable GTA 5 gameplay modifiers without inputting cheat codes, you can use Director Mode. This special mode allows you to play around with and toggle different settings in Grand Theft Auto V’s single-player campaign, such as invincibility and Wanted Level, without having any effect on your save file.
Follow the steps below to open Director Mode on PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox:
PC:
While in Story Mode, press the M key to open the Interaction menu.
Click on Director Mode at the bottom of the menu.
PlayStation:
While in Story Mode, press and hold the Touchpad on your PlayStation controller to open the Interaction menu.
Scroll down and click on Director Mode at the bottom of the menu.
Xbox:
While in Story Mode, press and hold the View button on your Xbox controller to open the Interaction menu.
Scroll down and click on Director Mode at the bottom of the menu.
When in Director Mode, click on Settings to toggle through various different options, such as Time of Day, Weather, and more. While Director Mode is mainly used to recording GTA 5 gameplay clips, it’s a good way of testing out cheats without affecting your save file so you won’t lose any money or progress and can mess around consequence-free.
