Rockstar / DexertoGTA 5 has been out for over a decade at this point on PlayStation, meaning most of us will have at least rolled credits on the game once. But if you’re heading back to Los Santos, there are loads of cheat codes you can use on PS4 and PS5 to have a bit of wacky fun in Rockstar’s virtual playground.
While there’s lots of content in GTA 5 and GTA Online to keep you busy until GTA 6 comes out, from the main campaign to heists, and races you can enjoy within co-op, cheats are another way to change things up.
So, whether you want to spawn a super fast car, or bike, some explosive ammo, or want to experience invincibility and even super jumping, these cheats do it all.
Best GTA 5 cheats for PS5 & PS4
CHEAT | CODE |
|---|---|
Max Health & Armor | Circle, L1, Triangle, R2, X, Square, Circle, Right, Square, L1, L1, L1 |
Give Weapons | Triangle, R2, Left, L1, X, Right, Triangle, Down, Square, L1, L1, L1 |
Slow Motion Aim | Square, L2, R1, Triangle, Left, Square, L2, Right, X |
Explosive Ammo Rounds | Right, Square, X, Left, R1, R2, Left, Right, Right, L1, L1, L1 |
Invincibility (For 5 mins) | Right, X, Right, Left, Right, R1, Right, Left, X, Triangle |
While the ‘best cheats’ will depend on your particular playthrough style, the five codes in the table above are the best of an already good bunch, allowing you to stay alive and head into plenty of different situations with your best foot forward.
Using the Invincibility cheat above (while it is time-limited) paired with Max Health & Armor gives you the chance to dive headfirst into the action without worrying about having to respawn right away – so we’d recommend using that combination if you’re struggling in a particular mission.
