GTA V Cheats: PC Commands, Phone Numbers and Console Codes

GTA V offers three ways to enter story-mode cheats: typed PC commands, controller sequences and, on supported newer versions, phone numbers. The most important boundary is story mode versus GTA Online. These codes are tools for Michael, Franklin and Trevor's single-player sandbox, not a method of generating Online money.

This guide gives a practical selection with both the command words and numbers where applicable. It is a researched reference, not a report of hands-on tests across every release. The GTA V game profile explains the developers, characters and edition history.

GTA V cheat input methods by platform

On PC, open the game's cheat console with the appropriate keyboard key, commonly the tilde key, type the command and confirm. Keyboard layouts can change the physical key used, so distinguish the game console from the Windows command prompt.

PS3 and Xbox 360 use controller sequences. Phone cheats are a feature of later versions, including PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. Do not use GTA IV's phone support as evidence that the original GTA V consoles accept the same method.

The GTABase PlayStation reference separates the older and newer methods. Enter phone numbers inside the game; these are not real-world numbers to call from a personal phone.

Health, equipment and special ability

• Health and armor: PC TURTLE; phone 1-999-887-853.

• Five-minute invincibility effect: PC PAINKILLER; phone 1-999-724-654-5537.

• Weapons and ammunition: PC TOOLUP; phone 1-999-866-587.

• Recharge special ability: PC POWERUP; phone 1-999-769-3787.

• Parachute: PC SKYDIVE; phone 1-999-759-3483.

Restoring health and activating a timed invincibility effect are different operations. The timer matters, and some effects are unavailable in particular gameplay situations. A denied activation is not necessarily a typo.

Police and movement

• Lower wanted level: PC LAWYERUP; phone 1-999-5299-3787.

• Raise wanted level: PC FUGITIVE; phone 1-999-3844-8483.

• Faster running: PC CATCHME; phone 1-999-2288-463.

• Faster swimming: PC GOTGILLS; phone 1-999-4684-4557.

• Super jump: PC HOPTOIT; phone 1-999-467-8648.

• Change weather: PC MAKEITRAIN; phone 1-999-625-348-7246.

Wanted-level reduction works differently from a permanent no-police mode. Check the result after activation rather than assuming the character can no longer attract attention. Weather and movement effects also do not complete a mission's specific objectives.

Selected cars, bikes and aircraft

• BMX: PC BANDIT; phone 1-999-226-348.

• Sanchez: PC OFFROAD; phone 1-999-633-7623.

• PCJ-600: PC ROCKET; phone 1-999-762-538.

• Comet: PC COMET; phone 1-999-266-38.

• Rapid GT: PC RAPIDGT; phone 1-999-727-4348.

• Buzzard: PC BUZZOFF; phone 1-999-2899-633.

• Duster: PC FLYSPRAY; phone 1-999-3597-7729.

Use an open area and allow enough space for the requested vehicle. The PC and vehicle reference documents the command system. Some additional vehicle cheats, including the Duke O'Death, Dodo and Kraken, require their associated unlock conditions; a number alone is not a promise of immediate access in every save.

PlayStation essentials

• Health and armor: Circle, L1, Triangle, R2, Cross, Square, Circle, Right, Square, L1, L1, L1.

• Weapons: Triangle, R2, Left, L1, Cross, Right, Triangle, Down, Square, L1, L1, L1.

• Lower wanted level: R1, R1, Circle, R2, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left.

Cross is the cross-shaped PlayStation face button. Directions refer to the directional pad. Enter the sequence continuously rather than holding all the listed buttons together.

Xbox essentials

• Health and armor: B, LB, Y, RT, A, X, B, Right, X, LB, LB, LB.

• Weapons: Y, RT, Left, LB, A, Right, Y, Down, X, LB, LB, LB.

• Lower wanted level: RB, RB, B, RT, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left.

The GTA BOOM Xbox reference sheet records controller inputs. LB and RB are bumpers, while LT and RT are triggers. Confusing those pairs is enough to invalidate a sequence even when every face button is correct.

Saving and achievements: Rockstar's rule

Rockstar's official cheat support article says saving remains possible while cheats are enabled, but achievements are temporarily disabled. Reloading a save or restarting resets cheats; entering the same code again does not disable every effect in every case.

That official guidance is more useful than claims that all cheats permanently ruin a save or that they have no achievement consequences. Keep a clean slot so an experimental session is easy to leave, and pay attention to a denied-cheat message when an effect is unavailable.

Money, Online and mobile claims

GTA V has no standard built-in money cheat. These story codes do not grant GTA Online currency, and a website advertising an account cash generator is not documenting this system. See the GTA Online guide for the separate progression model.

This article does not establish a native mobile edition of GTA V. A phone streaming a PC or console session still depends on that host version. It also does not establish GTA VI compatibility: the GTA VI reference keeps unconfirmed codes out of its pre-release coverage.
