Type during gameplay. If you can still type THUGSTOOLS without looking it up, you're officially old like me.

Weapons

• THUGSTOOLS — weapon set 1
  
• PROFESSIONALTOOLS — weapon set 2
  
• NUTTERTOOLS — weapon set 3
  

• ASPIRINE — full health (also repairs your current car, bonus trivia)
  
• PRECIOUSPROTECTION — full armor
  
• LEAVEMEALONE — clear wanted level
  
• YOUWONTTAKEMEALIVE — +2 wanted stars
  

• PANZER — spawn a Rhino tank
  
• BETTERTHANWALKING — spawn a Caddy
  
• SEAWAYS — cars drive on water (the best dumb fun in the game)

• GREENLIGHT — all traffic lights green

• BOOOOOORING — everything slower
  
• ICANTTAKEITANYMORE — Tommy, no. (instant death)
  
• FANNYMAGNET — women follow Tommy around
  
• CERTAINDEATH — Tommy smokes a cigarette. Rockstar's weirdest cheat.
  

The complete working list. On PC, just type the code word during gameplay (no console needed for these) or dial the phone numbers. On consoles, enter the button sequences quickly during gameplay.

The one everyone asks about first: there is NO money cheat in GTA 5. Never was, on any platform. Anyone promising one is selling you malware. For story-mode money, see the stock market thread pinned in this section.

Yes — and arguably right now is the perfect time, with GTA 6 four months out.

The single-player campaign remains one of the best open-world stories Rockstar has made. Three protagonists, the heist structure still feels fresh 13 years later, and it runs beautifully on basically anything — a 2015 laptop or a Series X, take your pick. You can regularly grab it for under $15 on sale.

What holds up best in 2026:

• The heists — still the best mission design in the series
  
• Trevor. That's it, that's the bullet point.
  
• The satire, which somehow got MORE accurate over the years
  
• Los Santos itself — still one of the densest open worlds ever built
  

Short answer for anyone landing here from Google: GTA 6 launches November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Standard Edition is $79.99. No PC version at launch.

Here's the full rundown as of late June 2026:

The confirmed facts

• Release date: November 19, 2026 (locked in by Take-Two's FY2027 guidance — they're betting $8+ billion on it, so another delay is very unlikely)
  
• Platforms: PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S only
  
• Setting: the state of Leonida (Rockstar's take on Florida), including a modern-day Vice City
  
• Protagonists: Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos — a Bonnie & Clyde style duo, and the first female protagonist in a mainline GTA since forever
  
• Price: $79.99 standard, $99.99 Ultimate
  

• PC release date. Rockstar hasn't said a word. Based on GTA 5 (Sep 2013 consoles, Apr 2015 PC) and RDR2 (~1 year gap), realistic guess is late 2027 at the earliest.
  
• Map size. Leaks suggest bigger than GTA 5, with more enterable interiors, but nothing official.
  
• Online plans. GTA Online is still printing money, so expect a transition period rather than a day-one GTA 6 Online.
  

Housekeeping post. If you visited recently and saw 150,000 threads of Russian SEO spam and cracked software listings — yeah. That's gone. All of it.

What happened behind the scenes:

• Every spam thread, post and account was purged (the forum is genuinely clean, not just swept under a rug)
  
• The forum software was updated to the latest version with all security patches
  
• New account registrations now require admin approval, and automated spam-network checks run on every registration and post
