What’s a Rockstar game without the thrill of cheat codes? Red Dead Redemption is a staple in Rockstar’s lineup and continues to be a beloved title in the gaming world long after its original release. True to their signature style, this game also features a cheat input system that can significantly alter your gameplay, particularly during challenging story missions.
The cheat codes vary between the main game and its downloadable content (DLC) and influence gameplay in distinct ways. Unlike many other Rockstar titles, you have to input these cheats via the main menu, writing them exactly as they appear in the prompt.
All Red Dead Redemption Cheat Codes
There are a total of 21 cheat codes accessible in the main game. The codes do not require case sensitivity, but it’s crucial to maintain the correct punctuation, such as commas and exclamation points.
Using a cheat code will prevent you from earning achievements during that play session. If you want to unlock achievements again, just load your auto/manual save.
