All Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Cheats for Xbox

Every GTA San Andreas cheat code for Xbox — Series X/S, One, 360, and original Xbox — is listed below with exact button sequences. The full table covers weapons, health, vehicles, wanted level, weather, and world modifiers. One heads-up before you start: using cheats disables achievements and corrupts save-based progress, so save your game first.

Most codes work across all Xbox versions, including the Definitive Edition. A handful of the visual modifiers (Big Head Mode, Beach Party, Carnival) behave identically regardless of platform. The sequences below use standard modern Xbox controller labeling — RB, RT, LB, LT, A, B, X, Y, plus directional inputs.

Quick Reference: Top GTA San Andreas Xbox Cheats

These are the codes most players reach for first. Bookmark this section and come back to the full table when you need something specific.

Effect	Button Sequence

Character Enhancement Cheats

These codes modify CJ directly — stats, appearance, and physical capabilities. Max Muscle and Max Fat are mutually exclusive in practice; the game tracks them on separate sliders, but stacking both via cheats produces some genuinely unhinged results visually.

Effect	Button Sequence
Maximum Stamina	Up, A, Y, A, Y, A, X, RT, Right
Maximum Fat	Y, Up, Up, Left, Right, X, B, Down
Maximum Muscle	Y, Up, Up, Left, Right, X, B, Left
Minimum Muscle	Y, Up, Up, Left, Right, X, B, Right
Maximum Respect	LB, RB, Y, Down, RT, A, LB, Up, LT, LT, LB, LB
Maximum Appeal	B, Y, Y, Up, B, RB, LT, Up, Y, LB, LB, LB
Remove Hunger	X, LT, RB, Y, Up, X, LB, Up, A
Max Weapon Proficiency	Down, X, A, Left, RB, RT, Left, Down, Down, LB, LB, LB
Infinite Lung Capacity	Down, Left, LB, Down, Down, RT, Down, LT, Down
Super Jump	Up, Up, Y, Y, Up, Up, Left, Right, X, RT, RT
Super Punch	Up, Left, A, Y, RB, B, B, B, LT
Super Bunny Hop	Y, X, B, B, X, B, B, LB, LT, LT, RB, RT
Adrenaline Mode	A, A, X, RB, LB, A, Down, Left, A
Big Head Mode	Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A
Instant Death	Right, LT, Down, RB, Left, Left, RB, LB, LT, LB

Weapon and Combat Cheats

The three weapon sets each give CJ a different loadout tier. Set 1 covers basics — pistol, shotgun, SMG. Set 2 steps up to Desert Eagle, SPAS-12, and MP5. Set 3 hands you the heavy artillery: Country Rifle, Combat Shotgun, M4, Minigun, Satchel Charges. If you’re mid-chaos and need firepower fast, Set 3 is the one.

Recruit cheats are genuinely underrated for sandbox mayhem. Rocket Launcher recruits in particular turn every pedestrian gang member into a walking artillery unit — great until they aim at a car two feet from you.

Effect	Button Sequence
Weapon Set 1 (Basic)	RB, RT, LB, RT, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up
Weapon Set 2 (Intermediate)	RB, RT, LB, RT, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Down, Left
Weapon Set 3 (Heavy)	RB, RT, LB, RT, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Down, Down
Infinite Ammo	LB, RB, X, RB, Left, RT, RB, Left, X, Down, LB, LB
Infinite Health	Down, A, Right, Left, Right, RB, Right, Down, Up, Y
Recruit Civilians (Pistols)	Down, X, Up, RT, RT, Up, Right, Right, Up
Recruit Civilians (Rocket Launchers)	RT, RT, RT, A, LT, LB, RT, LB, Down, A
Angry Pedestrians	Down, Up, Up, Up, A, RT, RB, LT, LT
Armed Pedestrians	RT, RB, A, Y, A, Y, Up, Down
Rioting Pedestrians	Down, Left, Up, Left, A, RT, RB, LT, LB
Rioting Pedestrians (Golf Clubs)	Down, Left, Up, Left, A, RB, RB, LT, LB
Gang Wars	LB, Up, RB, RB, Left, RB, RB, RT, Right, Down
Six-Star Wanted Level	B, Right, B, Right, Left, X, A, Down
Raise Wanted Level	RB, RB, B, RT, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left
Lower Wanted Level	RB, RB, B, RT, Up, Down, Up, Down, Up, Down
Lock Wanted Level	B, Right, B, Right, Left, X, Y, Up

Vehicle Spawn and Control Cheats

This is where San Andreas really separates itself. The sheer number of spawnable vehicles — from a golf caddy to a fully armed Hunter attack helicopter — is staggering for a 2004 game. A few things worth knowing about the vehicle codes specifically:

The Hydra (fighter jet) and Hunter (attack chopper) are endgame vehicles that take significant in-mission grinding to unlock normally. Spawning them early via cheat skips all of that — but remember the achievement lockout. Flying Cars is one of the most chaotic modifiers in the game; traffic doesn’t just float, it actively launches off bumps and hills. Drive On Water pairs surprisingly well with the Vortex Hovercraft spawn for something resembling controlled navigation.

Both Hotring Racer variants spawn different color schemes of the same base vehicle. The NOS cheats (All Cars and All Taxis) share the same button sequence — that’s not a typo, the Taxis code is identical to Maximum Stamina.

Effect	Button Sequence
Spawn Rhino Tank	B, B, LB, B, B, B, LB, LT, RB, Y, B, Y
Spawn Jetpack	Left, Right, LB, LT, RB, RT, Up, Down, Left, Right

World and Environment Cheats

Weather and time codes give you precise control over San Andreas’s atmosphere. Rainy and Stormy share the same input sequence — they trigger different intensity versions of wet weather depending on the current weather state when you activate them. Sandstorm is purely visual but genuinely disorienting if you’re in the middle of desert territory around Las Venturas.

The theme and pedestrian world modifiers are worth trying at least once. Pimp Theme dresses every NPC in exaggerated streetwear. Elvis Theme does exactly what it says. Beach Party floods the streets with swimmers and beachgoers regardless of location. These don’t affect gameplay stats — purely cosmetic chaos.

Effect	Button Sequence
Sunny Weather	RT, A, LB, LB, LT, LT, LT, Y
Extreme Sunny Weather	RT, A, LB, LB, LT, LT, LT, Down
Cloudy Weather	LT, Down, Down, Left, X, Left, RT, X, A, RB, LB, LB

Important Warnings and Tips

A few things that will save you frustration:

Cheats disable achievements permanently for that save file. There’s no way to re-enable them once a code is entered. On Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One running the Definitive Edition, this applies to Gamerscore achievements. Always keep a clean save slot separate from your cheat-enabled session.

Some codes conflict with each other. Faster Gameplay and Slower Gameplay obviously cancel out, but less obviously — Infinite Health and Instant Death interact unpredictably depending on which was entered last. Lock Wanted Level should be entered after clearing your stars, not before raising them.

The Destroy All Cars code (RT, LT, RB, LB, LT, RT, X, Y, B, Y, LT, LB) will also destroy the vehicle you’re currently sitting in. Enter it on foot.

Codes don’t stack in the way you might expect. Entering Weapon Set 3 twice doesn’t double your ammo — it resets the loadout to base quantities. For ammo, use Infinite Ammo separately after your weapon set code.

On Xbox 360 disc versions (the original 2005 release), all codes listed here function identically. The controller mapping is the same. The Definitive Edition (2021) on Xbox One and Series X/S also uses the same sequences, confirmed through the March 2026 version of the game.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the cheat for full health in GTA San Andreas on Xbox?

Press RB, RT, LB, A, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up. This gives CJ $250,000 cash, full health, and full armor in one input.

What’s the cheat for infinite ammo on Xbox?

Enter LB, RB, X, RB, Left, RT, RB, Left, X, Down, LB, LB. This applies to all currently held weapons and persists until you reload your save.

How do you lower your wanted level in GTA San Andreas on Xbox?

Press RB, RB, B, RT, Up, Down, Up, Down, Up, Down. Each entry drops your wanted level by one star, so enter it multiple times to clear all stars. To lock it at zero afterward, follow up with B, Right, B, Right, Left, X, Y, Up.

How do you spawn a tank in GTA San Andreas on Xbox?

The Rhino Tank spawns with B, B, LB, B, B, B, LB, LT, RB, Y, B, Y. It spawns near CJ’s current position, so make sure you’re in an open area — spawning it indoors or in tight spaces causes it to clip through geometry.

How do you spawn the Hunter helicopter in GTA San Andreas on Xbox?

Enter B, A, LB, B, B, LB, B, RB, RT, LT, LB, LB. The Hunter is a fully armed military attack helicopter with cannons and rockets. It spawns above CJ and drops down, so clear the airspace around you first.

Do GTA San Andreas cheats work on Xbox Series X?

Yes. All codes listed here work on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S running both the original backward-compatible version and the Definitive Edition. The button sequences are identical across all Xbox platforms.
