GTA 5 Cheats and Cheat Codes: All 36 for Every Platform
GTA V has 36 cheats. 34 can be typed on PC, 28 have a controller sequence, and all 36 have a phone number that works on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC. Pick your platform below, or read the full list further down. Nothing here works in GTA Online.
Pick Your Platform
If you already know what you are playing on, go straight to your platform. The full list for all three is below.
How to Enter GTA 5 Cheats on Each Platform
The same cheats exist everywhere, only the way in changes. The button sequences are identical on PS5 and PS4, and on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. The phone numbers arrived with the PS4, Xbox One and PC versions, so PS3 and Xbox 360 only take the sequences.
| Platform | How to enter a cheat | What works |
|---|---|---|
PS5 and PS4 | Enter the button sequence quickly during play, directions on the D-pad. A message confirms the cheat. | 28 sequences and all 36 phone numbers |
Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One | Same method: the sequence during play, directions on the D-pad. | 28 sequences and all 36 phone numbers |
PC, Legacy and Enhanced | Press the key left of 1 (the tilde on a US keyboard), type the code, press Enter. | 34 typed codes and all 36 phone numbers |
Phone, on all of the above | Press Up to take out the phone, open Contacts, press Square, X or Space for the keypad, then dial and call. | All 36, including Director Mode and the black phone theme |
PS3 and Xbox 360 | Button sequences only. | 28 sequences; no phone numbers, no Dodo, Duke O'Death or Kraken |

Do Cheats Disable Trophies and Achievements in GTA 5?
Yes, but only for the session. The moment a cheat is active, trophies and achievements stop unlocking. Nothing is written to your save, so reloading a save or restarting the game brings them back, even if the game autosaved while the cheat was on.
Two smaller costs. A mission played with a cheat on scores a bronze medal at best. And some cheats are refused during missions, with a message saying so: use them in free roam. None of this stops 100% completion.
Cheats never save. Most switch off if you enter them again, and all of them are gone after a reload. None of them work in GTA Online: Rockstar strips them out of the multiplayer entirely.
Three Vehicle Cheats You Have to Unlock First
The Dodo, the Duke O'Death and the Kraken came with the re-release, and their cheats only work once the vehicle is unlocked in story mode.
| Vehicle | PC code and phone | Unlock it by |
|---|---|---|
Dodo seaplane | EXTINCT, 1-999-398-4628 | Completing the Sea Plane random event |
Duke O'Death | DEATHCAR, 1-999-332-84227 | Completing the Duel random event |
Kraken submarine | BUBBLES, 1-999-282-2537 | Finishing the Wildlife Photography Challenge |
The Phone Numbers
Every number starts with 1-999 and spells the cheat on the keypad: 1-999-887-853 is 1-999-TURTLE, which is a handy check if you misremember one. The numbers work on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC. Two cheats, Director Mode and the black phone theme, exist only as a number. The phone does not keep them, so dial again each time.
More GTA V on GTAside
Cheats are the shortcut. The long way round is covered elsewhere: the best weapons in GTA V, the fastest vehicles, the most profitable businesses, how to make money fast and the easter eggs. The older games handled cheats differently: one typed word and no phone at all in GTA III and San Andreas, phone numbers only in GTA IV.
