Red Dead Redemption 2 cheat codes will help make the Wild West an easier place to exist in, there are RDR2 cheats to make things a little, ahem, wilder, too.
In our full list of cheat codes below, you'll find cheats for unlimited ammo, unlocking all outfits, and more.
While we wait for Grand Theft Auto 6, you have a perfect excuse to dip into some RDR2 cheats.
You may want to try out some GTA 5 cheats or even GTA 5 mods, which can completely change the game into something else, like GTA RP.
Back to the matter at hand. Here's the full list of RDR2 cheat codes and how to use them.
How to use cheat codes in Red Dead Redemption 2
Red Dead Redemption 2. Rockstar
The codes in the game are actually phrases and they can be found all over the map – you've likely crossed paths with many already without realising it. They are etchings that can be found in stone or on ice, or you can get them from buying newspapers.
We have you covered with all the codes you can use below and to use them, you just need to follow a few simple steps.
To cheat in RDR2, you need to head to Settings, and then you will see a cheat option in the bottom right of the screen.
Click that cheat button on PC (or press Triangle on a PlayStation controller, or Y on an Xbox controller, to select it), enter the code, and then enjoy the rewards.
As expected in the modern gaming age, using cheats will stop you getting achievements/trophies during that play session – so definitely keep that in mind!
