GTA 5 Cheats: every cheat code for PC, PS4, and Xbox One

Grand Theft Auto 5 features one of the most expansive open worlds in gaming, which makes it a trek to explore on foot. Sure, you could hail a taxi, or steal a random car on the side of the road, but there is an easier way to get around. There are times where it would be far less complicated to simply spawn a helicopter right at your feet, and these GTA 5 cheats will help you do exactly that, plus much more.

We've assembled a list of GTA 5 cheats to help make your time in Los Santos even more enjoyable. Whether you want to become fully invincible, or you want to have every gun available on a whim, these cheats will transform you into an unstoppable force. Be warned that using any of these cheats will disable achievements/trophies from unlocking during your current session. It may be worth loading up a separate save when you want to mess around with cheats to avoid any issues.

It doesn't matter if you're using a PC, Xbox, or PS4 as we've listed every platform to ensure you have all the best cheats at your disposal. The method of inputting the cheat codes varies between PC and console, so we'll focus on how to use these codes first.

GTA Online's weekly update offers double rewards on yacht and plane missions

It looks like a pretty good week to rack up some dosh in Los Santos. GTA Online players are mulling around to see what's new in this week's update ahead of Rockstar Game's usual newswire post. While Rockstar doesn't post its rundown until later on in the day, the weekly reset happens earlier than that so people can find out what's new reasonably quickly.

This week you're getting double the rewards on sea races, air races, the Stockpile adversary mode, A Superyacht Life missions, air freight, hidden caches, and treasure chests - phew! As you can probably tell, this is all themed around GTA Online's yachts and planes. You've got a few decent options here for racking up some extra money in races or doing more open-world activities like cargo running. Even if you don't fancy races, you can still rack up some money doing other activities.

Rockstar is also introducing a heap of discounts to help you get set up with what you need to tackle the missions. Several planes, such as the Jobuilt P-996 Lazer, are 40% off, and you'll find that all hangers have been discounted by 60%, too. The Orion, Pisces, and Aquarius versions of the Galaxy Super Yacht are discounted by 50%.

GTA RP streamer discovers that roleplaying jobs is as unpleasant as having a job

When it comes to GTA RP servers, Chance 'Sodapoppin' Morris is a working man. He roleplays as a character called Kevin Whipaloo, who owns a restaurant among other businesses on the server and is the Diamond Resort and Casino floor manager. It turns out, though, that the responsibilities that come with all of that are exhausting when you have to factor in your roleplaying employees' needs.

So Morris is taking a break from GTA RP, at least for now. The content creator told his stream that the responsibilities of having that many jobs in-game have begun to feel like a real-life job. "I'm taking a break, and I'm coming back when I feel like it," he explains. "It's too much. I don't want to say those things while I'm doing GTA RP because the last thing I want is someone to look at Kevin in-game and say, 'oh, I don't want to interact with him because I know he's got too many interactions going on already'."

One of the challenges of roleplay is that everything has more consequences as you have to consider how it'll affect other people. Whipaloo's character has the amusing hook of someone trying to live an honest life in a dishonest city. Try as he might, Whipaloo can't avoid the life of crime, no matter how many startups he gets involved with.

GTA Online player figures out how to speed up loading times by 70%

If there's one thing that feels part and parcel of the Grand Theft Auto experience, it's sitting in front of your screen and waiting for the darn thing to load. While Grand Theft Auto 5 has been out for around seven years now, it's more or less the same deal. GTA Online also operates on the same dime and can take a hot minute to boot up even after you've loaded into GTA 5 itself.

I've rarely questioned it as Grand Theft Auto 5 is a lot of game, after all. Now, though, someone has decided to mull around in the crime game's files for themselves to see if they can speed GTA Online's loading times up, and it looks like they've achieved some promising results.

The GTA 5 fan posted their findings online after managing to speed up loading times by up to 70%. I'd encourage you to read their post in full, but the short version is that they found a single-thread CPU bottleneck while starting up GTA Online and that GTA struggles to parse a 10MB JSON file as the JSON parser is reportedly "poorly built".

GTA Online's weekly update adds a weaponised dinghy

The rollout of vehicles from GTA Online's Cayo Perico update continues this week in Los Santos. Rockstar provides the official rundown of what the GTA Online weekly update entails later on in the day, though the content goes live when reset hits. As such, players mull around and post what's new to Reddit and Twitter.

This week you'll be able to buy a weaponised dinghy - yes, really - for $1,850,000 in GTA bucks from Warstock Cache & Carry. To find it, head to your humble abode, go to the garage, interact with your PC, and you should see the new vehicle. You're looking for the Nagasaki Weaponised Dinghy, which is pretty hard to miss. It doesn't, uh, appear to offer the most protection, but there's little else like it.

If you need to raise some funds, the good news is that it's looking like an excellent week to grind some dosh. Special cargo sales are offering twice their usual reward, and special cargo warehouses are 50% off. So they're cheaper to set up, and pay out more, too. If you haven't heard of them before, they're a type of CEO mission that Rockstar added to the game with the Further Adventures in Finance and Felony update. Simply put, they're open-world missions that task you with going out, fetching cargo, and stashing them in your warehouse.
