GTA 3 Cheats: Full List for PC, Xbox, PS5 & Switch

GTA 3 Cheats: The Ultimate Guide for All Platforms (Definitive Edition)

It has been over two decades since Grand Theft Auto III changed the gaming world forever. Whether you are revisiting Liberty City on the original version or playing the shiny new GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, one thing remains true: Cheating is half the fun.

Sometimes you don't want to complete missions. Sometimes, you just want to spawn a Rhino Tank, equip every weapon in the game, and turn Liberty City into a chaotic playground.

Below, we have compiled the complete list of GTA 3 cheat codes for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Mobile.

Before You Start: How to Enter Cheats

Using cheats in GTA 3 is simple, but there is one golden rule: Save your game first.

Some cheats (like "Pedestrians Riot") cannot be turned off. If you save after activating them, your save file might be ruined forever.

PC: Just type the code on your keyboard while in-game. No pause menu needed.
Consoles (Xbox/PS/Switch): Enter the button combination rapidly while standing in the game world.
Mobile: You may need a third-party app (like a virtual keyboard) or a physical bluetooth keyboard to type the PC codes.

5. GTA 3 Mobile Cheat Codes (iOS & Android)

Entering cheats on mobile is a bit trickier because there is no physical keyboard.

How to do it:

Connect a Bluetooth keyboard to your phone/tablet.
OR use a third-party virtual keyboard app (like "Hacker's Keyboard" on Android) that allows you to pop up a keyboard in-game.
Type the PC Cheat Codes listed in section 1 (e.g., type "GUNSGUNSGUNS").
