Each character has a unique special ability. Michael's bullet time, Franklin's driving focus, and Trevor's rage mode. The story spans over 69 main missions plus dozens of side activities including property management, stock market manipulation, and random events.

Frequently Asked Questions about GTA 5

Do cheat codes work in GTA Online?

No. GTA 5 cheat codes only work in story mode (single player). Cheats are completely disabled in GTA Online to prevent unfair advantages. Using external cheats or mods in GTA Online can result in a permanent ban.

How many copies has GTA 5 sold?

Over 230 million copies, sold-in as of 30 June 2026, in Take-Two's investor presentation of August 2026. That makes GTA V the second best-selling video game ever, behind Minecraft, and third if the dozens of licensed Tetris releases are added together.

How do you enter cheat codes in GTA 5 on PC?

On PC, press the tilde key (~) to open the console, then type the cheat code and press Enter. You can also use your in-game phone: open contacts, press the dial button, and enter the cheat as a phone number. Check our full GTA 5 cheat codes page for every code.

Is GTA 5 story mode worth playing in 2026?
