Grand Theft Auto IV: A Cheat Code Compendium
While GTA IV may lack the unrestrained chaos of its successor, GTA V, its cheat codes still deliver a potent dose of fun. From spawning vehicles and boosting health to unleashing explosive mayhem, this guide covers all the GTA IV cheat codes.
Cheat Code Activation: All codes are dialed on Niko's in-game phone. Access the phone (using the D-pad Up or equivalent keyboard key), then the keypad, enter the code, and hit "Call." Activated cheats are saved in your phone's "Cheats" menu for easy re-activation.

Important Considerations:
- No Money Cheat: Unlike some GTA titles, GTA IV lacks a dedicated money cheat.
- Achievement/Trophy Impact: Using cheats disables achievements (Xbox, PC) and trophies (PS3) for the current session. Save, exit, and restart the game to re-enable them. This effect is not permanent.
- Modding: For enhanced gameplay, consider modding. However, proceed cautiously and always download mods from reputable sources.
Modding GTA IV (A Quick Guide):
- Prepare Your Game: Back up your game files and ensure GTA IV is fully updated.
- Install Script Hook: Download from GTAinside.com, extract, and copy the files to your GTA IV directory.
- Download Mods: Use reputable sites like GTAInside, GTAForums, and Nexus Mods. Always verify the safety and legitimacy of downloaded mods.
- Launch and Enjoy: Mods typically load automatically; refer to individual mod instructions for activation details.
GTA IV is available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
