GTA San Andreas Cheats For PC

Activating cheat codes in the PC version of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (including the Rockstar Launcher version bundled in GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition) is easy and involves just a few simple steps. With countless player, vehicle and world effects to choose from, we have you covered. Keep this guide handy for all your GTA San Andreas PC cheat code needs.

  1. Save Game

    Before you begin using cheat codes, you should create a save of your game. Using cheat codes will deactivate achievements, so you need to have a restore point for when you intend to play without cheats again.

  2. Pick Your Code

    GTA San Andreas includes a massive list of cheats (thanks Rockstar), with more codes than the vast majority of games. Multiple cheats can be used simultaneously, so pick the code or codes you want to use from our list.

  3. Enter The Code

    To activate the cheat you need to type in the associated code during regular gameplay. Don’t pause the game and don’t worry when CJ responds to your keyboard commands, that’s normal – just type in the cheat.

  4. Cheat Activated

    A small notification will appear at the top of your screen if you have followed this guide and successfully entered the cheat code.
