GTA 3 Remastered cheats for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC

Sam Smith
Claude in Grand Theft Auto 3

Liberty City is where many fans first fell in love with Grand Theft Auto, but it’s also the first time many of us got to use GTA 3 cheats for the first time. Here are all the codes we know of.

GTA 3 was a game-changer, not just for Grand Theft Auto, but for all open-world games. Nothing like it had ever been seen on console before. The streets of Liberty City rendered in full 3D was a sight to behold, and the gameplay was addictive, but what was even more fun was spawning a tank with GTA 3 cheats and causing anarchy.

With a remaster of GTA 3 now here, it’s the perfect time to remind ourselves of all the game’s iconic cheat codes. A word of warning, though – using cheats will disable trophies and achievements.

It’s also worth noting that not every cheat will work, as confirmed by producer Rich Rosado in an interview with USA Today (via GLHF).

“We actually had to remove a couple for technical reasons, certain things that didn’t play well in the Unreal base.”

“But that’s actually where I’ll leave it. There’s some fun with discovery. I’m not saying plus or minus, but I’d rather not just go right on the nose before the release of the game and go straight to the end credits.”
