Just like the GTA series, Rockstar has cheat codes for Red Dead Redemption 2 that can make the single-player experience even more fun. The cheats can be used for money, spawn gear and equipment, among other things. However, unlike GTA cheat codes, the Red Dead Redemption cheats are slightly restrained and cannot be entered just like that. The place to enter cheat codes is hidden in the game. But, fret not, we have got you covered. Below is the full list of Red Dead Redemption 2 cheats and a step-by-step guide on how to use them. Check it out:

How to enter Red Dead Redemption 2 cheats
You cannot directly enter cheats in Red Dead Redemption 2 similar to GTA games. Here’s what you need to do:
- First, you need to pause the game, then head over to Settings.
- Click on the button corresponding to Cheats, which will be available in the bottom right corner.
- When the cheats list is opened, you will notice that all of them are locked but you can unlock them by just entering the cheat codes.
- After you enter a cheat code, it will be unlocked forever and can be toggled on or off.
While this will work for most Red Dead Redemption 2 cheats, certain cheats require you to collect specific newspapers to unlock them. If you try to enter such cheat codes, you will get an error saying that you don’t have all the prerequisites for the cheat. It should also be noted that after activating any cheat, you will get a warning that states you cannot save single-player progress or collect trophies and achievements as long as any cheat is active.

How to find newspapers to unlock Red Dead Redemption 2 cheats
Certain Red Dead Redemption 2 cheats require newspapers to be owned. These newspapers are unlocked as you progress through the story and they have their cheat codes printed at the bottom when you flip them over. There are three types of newspapers in the game, which include the New Hanover Gazette, Blackwater Ledger, and Saint-Denis Times. You can buy New Hanover Gazette in Valentine, Blackwater Ledger in Strawberry, and Saint-Denis Times in Rhodes. You can either buy the required newspapers as you progress through the story or buy them all at once after you finish the story.
