In GTA 4 the cheat codes are phone numbers. You open your character's phone, dial the number and the code works right away. The method is the same on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and it also applies if you play through backward compatibility on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. The archive has the 16 cheat codes of the main game plus 15 codes from The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. There is no money cheat; the game never had one.
GTA 4 has no separate cheat console; every code is a number you dial on your character's cell phone. The method is the same on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The same numbers also work when you play through backward compatibility on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
The Complete Edition on Steam includes The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, and the episode codes work there too.
Some codes lock certain trophies for that session; restarting the game removes the lock.
Some codes lock certain achievements for that session; restarting the game removes the lock.
