Red Dead Redemption: All The Cheat Codes - Complete List

RDR2

Red Dead Redemption, the classic Rockstar Old-West shooter, has finally hit Xbox One backwards compatibility. If you’re one of the many fans that purchased the game during the Xbox Summer Sale, there’s no better time to revisit the many world-altering cheats of this stellar title. Here you’ll find the full list of codes and how to activate them.

Not all of these codes were available to the general public at the initial release back in 2010. It wasn’t until 2014 that Rockstar dropped a free content update that added the remaining cheat codes for everyone to enjoy. That’s why you might not recognize all these codes, even if you were a RDR super-fan. Not everyone sticks with the same game four full years after launch. These codes are just for fun, and some are crazier than others; you can change the weather, make wildlife friendly, or turn all your guns into incendiary-bullet spewing hellmachines. Explore the full breadth of the uncivilized west, and everything you can do to cause mayhem, with the full list below.

How Cheat Codes Work

To access and input Cheat Codes in Red Dead Redemption, go here:

Go to the Cheats option -> In Options under the Pause menu
Tap [Y] (360/XBO) or [Triangle] (PS3) to input a Code Phrase.

In the Cheats screen, you can input or activate cheats. Once a cheat is activated, Auto-Saves are disabled and Achievements / Trophies will be locked.

Reload a previous ‘clean’ save file to remove these limitations. Inputting a code phrase will NOT disable features — codes have to be activated. It is possible to manually save with cheats active — all ‘cheat’ save files feature a star symbol.

Multiple cheat codes can be toggled on/off in the Cheats tab.
