GTA San Andreas cheats and cheat codes
San Andreas has more cheat codes than any other game in the series. You do not need to open a console; while playing, you type the code straight on the keyboard. Most codes look like a jumble of letters, but they all work, and the best known one, HESOYAM, gives you health, armor and money all by itself. The archive below sorts the codes into categories, and each one copies with a single click.
How do you open the cheat console?
Your choice is rememberedSan Andreas has no separate cheat console. While in the game, walking or driving, just type the code's letters on the keyboard in order. It does not work in the pause menu or on a loading screen.
Type the code directly
- Be in the game, not in the pause menu.
- Type the code's letters on the keyboard in order. No box opens, and the letters do not appear.
- If you typed it correctly, a confirmation message appears on screen and the code works right away.
Since the letters do not show on screen, you only know you made a typo when no confirmation appears. In that case, type it again from the start.
HESOYAM
This code gives health, armor and $250,000. Try it first to check you are typing correctly; you should see a confirmation message on screen.
- Codes are not case sensitive.
- Some codes cannot be undone and get written into your save. Be careful not to save in a session where you entered appearance or pedestrian behavior codes.
- Using cheats can affect some mission stats and your completion percentage.

Common questions
How do you enter GTA San Andreas cheat codes?
There is no separate console or menu. While in the game, type the code's letters on the keyboard in order. The letters do not appear on screen; if you typed it correctly, a confirmation message appears and the code works right away.
What is the San Andreas money cheat?
There is no separate money code; money comes with HESOYAM. This code refills your health and armor and adds $250,000 to your account at the same time. It pays out again every time you type it, so typing it a few times gets you as much money as you want.
I typed a code but it did not work. Why?
The most common reason is trying to type it in the pause menu or on a loading screen. The code has to be typed while you are in the game. The second reason is a typo; since the letters do not show, it is hard to notice, so type the code again from the start.
Do cheats break the game?
Most codes are safe. However, the pedestrian behavior and appearance codes cannot be undone, and if you save, their effects get written into your save. Using cheats can also affect some stats and your completion percentage.
Do these codes work in the Definitive Edition?
Most of the codes work the same way in the remastered version. A few may behave differently because of version differences; if you find a code that does not work, let us know.
Do codes stay in my save?
A code's effect lasts for that session. If you save after entering a code, some lasting effects get written into the save, so be careful not to save in a session where you entered codes that cannot be undone.
