GTA 6 Codes, Cheats & Bonus Redemption

"Codes" means three different things for GTA 6: the download code in boxed copies, bonus content you have to claim, and classic cheat codes. Here's each.

1. Redeeming a code-in-box copy

Retail editions contain a download code, not a disc. They're available from November 12.

PlayStation 5

1. Open PlayStation Store → the ⋯ menu → Redeem code.
2. Enter the 12-character code.
3. The download starts automatically (it's the full ~212 GB).

Xbox Series X|S

1. Open Microsoft Store → Redeem.
2. Enter the 25-character code.
3. Install from My games & apps.

2. Pre-order and edition bonuses

If bonus content doesn't appear, make sure your console account is linked to your Rockstar Games account and that you're signed in.

3. Cheat codes

Rockstar hasn't confirmed cheat codes for GTA 6. GTA has a long history of button-sequence cheats (and phone-number cheats in GTA 4 and 5), but Rockstar left cheats out of Red Dead Redemption 2's normal flow, unlocking them through newspapers instead. Given GTA 6's tracked systems — the criminal profile, money and story gating — expect cheats, if they exist, to disable achievements or trophies.

We'll publish a full, verified cheat list here the moment any are confirmed in the game. Ignore "GTA 6 cheat codes" lists circulating before launch — none have been verified.

4. Avoid scams

• No legitimate site sells "free GTA 6 codes."
• There's no PC version — "GTA 6 PC download" files are malware.
• Don't share your PSN, Xbox or Rockstar login for "early access."
