Recently, Rockstar Games revealed the trailer for the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy: The Definitive Edition, giving our first remastered look at Grand Theft Auto III, GTA: Vice City, and GTA: San Andreas. Of course, with any Grand Theft Auto game comes a plethora of cheats to deploy—from infinite ammo to pedestrian riots.
Players looking to return to Grand Theft Auto III may have some of these cheats burned into the back of their memories for eternity. If you're a little rusty, or it's your first time (or that knowledge has been replaced by GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 tricks), here's a refresher before you sink back into the updated world of Liberty City.
Input any of these commands at any time during the gameplay, and they should work. If the commands respond anything as the classic games did, you have to complete the sequence fast—if successful, you will see a notification pop up on-screen.
NOTE: Existing Xbox cheats are valid for older generation consoles only. Stay tuned to Pro Game Guides to update when the cheats are revealed for next-gen Xbox systems and Nintendo Switch.
