Since the original Grand Theft Auto debuted in 1997, the series has redefined open-world gaming with every title. The unprecedented freedom is reflected in the legendary cheat codes Rockstar’s iconic franchise has had across the years. What began as simple button combinations to help gamers has evolved into fun mechanics that people look forward to. Be it spawning weapons, altering gravity, turning pedestrians into rioters, or making cars fly across Los Santos. These cheats have become an essential part of the GTA experience, creating moments of unscripted chaos.

As we wait for GTA 6, let’s take a nostalgic trip through every GTA game to highlight the most iconic cheats from each title.

7 Most Iconic GTA Cheat Codes

Grand Theft Auto – All Weapons Cheat

GUNSOFGUNS is the cheat that started it all. In the original top-down GTA, this code gave you every weapon in the game instantly. From pistols to rocket launchers, every gun was at your fingertips if you knew this cheat code. This might seem the norm today, but it was considered revolutionary in 1997. It led to players unleashing unprecedented carnage in Liberty City’s streets.

GTA 2 – All Weapons & Ammo Cheat

Rockstar brought back the classic code from their prequel with the added bonus of getting maxed-out ammo. The code already gave access to all weapons, but then it became the perfect way to cause mayhem. These codes work well when combined with other cheat codes like TURTOISE, which brought down the Wanted Level.

GTA III – Tank Spawn Cheat

Tired of strolling around on your superbike or luxury car in GTA III? Just spawn a tank! GIVEUSATANK is one of the most iconic cheat codes in GTA III. Spawning a Rhino tank in the middle of Liberty City’s streets was every player’s dream back in the day. This cheat code lets you plough through traffic and shrug off bullets like they were nothing. This set the stage for vehicle cheats in future Grand Theft Auto games.

GTA: Vice City – Flying Cars Cheat

Who said cars aren’t meant to fly? That’s what everybody used to think until the COMEFLYWITHME came along. This cheat code turned every vehicle into a makeshift aircraft. The perfect getaway plan to escape the cops or just cause mayhem from the air across Vice City’s neon-lit streets.

GTA: San Andreas – Health, Armor & Money Cheat

This is considered the holy grail of GTA cheat codes by many fans. This legendary HESOYAM code gave you full health, full armor, and $250,000 instantly. This nearly solved every problem CJ faced in GTA San Andreas. Even today, fans can recite this code just from muscle memory alone.

GTA IV – Spawn Annihilator Cheat

In Grand Theft Auto IV, you can spawn an Annihilator attack chopper by using the cheat code 359-555-0100. GTA IV took a more realistic approach to its gameplay, but it still let you mess with the game using outrageous cheats. Calling this number would summon everyone’s favorite weapon of destruction, perfect for raining destruction on Liberty City’s streets.

GTA V – Freefall Cheat

This modern cheat teleports you high above the city in a freefall state. 1-999-SKYFALL teleports your character to a nearby random location in mid-air. The adrenaline rush of skydiving through Los Santos never gets old, while enjoying the breathtaking view. This is one of the fan-favorite cheat codes if you can avoid the painful landing.
