How to Redeem Codes in Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5)
Time needed: 4 minutes
You have three primary ways to redeem cheat codes in the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5), all done while playing in Story Mode (cheats do not work in GTA Online):
- Console Command (Keyboard):
Press the tilde key (tilda) on your keyboard (usually located under the Esc key and to the left of the ‘1’).
A small console box will appear; type the word cheat code (e.g., PAINKILLER for Invincibility or BUZZOFF for the Buzzard helicopter) and press Enter. - In-Game Cell Phone:
Press the Up Arrow key to pull out your character’s cell phone.
Press the Spacebar to bring up the dial pad.
Type the phone number cheat code (e.g., 1-999-724-654-5537 for Invincibility) and press the Spacebar again to dial. - Controller Combo:
If you are playing with an Xbox or PlayStation controller connected to your PC, you can enter the same button combinations used on those consoles.
- Important Note: Activating a cheat code will disable Achievements/Trophies for your current session, so be sure to save your game beforehand if you care about them!
Top 5 Gameplay Strategies for Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5)
Here are five essential gameplay strategies for Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5) Story Mode:
- Master Your Character’s Special Abilities: Each of the three protagonists has a unique power (Franklin’s driving focus, Michael’s bullet-time, Trevor’s rage) that can get you out of tight spots. Practice using these abilities regularly during both missions and free-roam to upgrade them and maximize your combat advantage.
- Delay Lester’s Assassination Missions: Four of Lester’s five assassination missions for Franklin involve manipulating the in-game stock market for massive profits. Complete the main story first to have the maximum cash available for investment, allowing you to multiply your final wealth.
- Utilize the Cover System in Gunfights: Hiding behind cover is crucial in large-scale firefights, significantly reducing the damage you take and allowing for precise peeking shots. Always press the cover button to snap behind objects during a shootout rather than standing out in the open.
- Invest in Vehicle Armor and Ammunition: Prioritize spending early-game money on body armor and upgrading your car’s armor for better survivability during high-speed police chases and missions. Don’t waste money on purely cosmetic car upgrades until much later when you have a substantial bank account.
- Explore for Free Weapons and Collectibles: Scout the map for free weapon spawns and hidden packages, which will save you money on Ammu-Nation purchases and often reward you with unique vehicles or items. Completing side missions and collecting scraps will also boost your character stats and unlock new content.
