All GTA 5 cheats and phone numbers for invincibility, weapons, and vehicles

Trevor Phillips from GTA 5 as he walks through a swanky apartment with Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton. He's animated and mid-speech. .

The robust collection of GTA 5 cheats out there can do everything from reducing your wanted level to catapulting you high into the air. You can also spawn a collection of fun driveables, ranging from motorbikes to sports cars to novelty vehicles such as golf carts, submarines and stretch limos.

The only things you can't really use a cheat for are money (alas - see our guide on making money in GTA 5) and Lamborghinis, but a trip to Los Santos with a few shortcuts still makes for a fun time.

So in the spirit of causing a little extra chaos, our GTA 5 cheats guide starts with a few recommendations before listing every code. Remember, you can always enter 1-999 followed by the code using your in-game phone to activate cheats.

Best GTA 5 cheats for quick chaos

Sure, you can max out health (TURTLE) and ammo (TOOLUP) or reduce your wanted stars (LAWYERUP). But you're not here to live, are you? You're here to feel alive until you die, so we've got recommendations on the best GTA 5 cheats to try for a good time, not a long time.

  • SKYFALL - Drops you from a mile in the air. Ends poorly without using SKYDIVE for a parachute.
  • HOPTOIT - Gives you super jump. The longer you hold down the jump key, the higher you go.
  • VINEWOOD - Spawns a stretch limo. Perfect for blocking traffic altogether, and they spawn in different colors with each use.
  • CATCHME/GOTGILLS - Faster running and swimming, because sometimes you just don't want to drive. Or get eaten by sharks.
  • INCENDIARY - Your bullets set things on fire. Like people.

GTA 5 novelty cheats

Weapons and vehicles are fun and all, but so is using GTA 5's super jump in low gravity. Before you get too wild with warping Los Santos reality, just note a few of the particulars:

  • Bullet time (slow-motion aiming) - Must have a gun equipped to work
  • Drunk mode - Behaves as an on/off toggle, only works while standing
  • Slippery tires - Must be in a vehicle to use this code
  • Slow motion - Cycles through three levels of slow-mo after each input
  • Change weather - Cycles to a different type of weather after each input

How to use GTA 5 cheats

(Image credit: Rockstar Games)

GTA 5 cheats on PC are especially easy to use: Just open the in-game command console and drop in a code. They'll only work in story mode outside of missions and new saves require you to reach the open world (so after the first mission, when you start playing as Franklin).

How to open the GTA 5 console command window

To bring up GTA 5's console, hit the tilde key (~), or whatever key is directly to the left of the 1 at the top of your keyboard.

Type in any of the cheat codes above in all caps just as written and hit enter. Congratulations! You're cheating. Spawn yourself a motorcycle and flaming ammo rounds to celebrate.

How to use the in-game phone for GTA 5 cheats

You can also dial any cheat's associated phone number with your in-game phone, regardless of what system you're playing on; the number is generally 1-999 plus the cheat code word equivalent on the keypad.

  • Press the up arrow key (Up on D-pad) to open your phone
  • Press spacebar (X or Square) to open the dial pad
  • Enter the number then press spacebar (X or Square) again to dial
