Red Dead Redemption 2 Cheat Codes (Single-Player)

Warning: Using cheat codes can take away from the challenge and enjoyment of Red Dead Redemption 2. But, if you're set on it, here's a guide.

Important Note

Unlike Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 for single-player mode uses a different system for activating cheats. There are no traditional cheat codes you can type in. Instead, cheats are activated through specific phrases found within the game world itself.

Activating Cheats

To activate cheats in Red Dead Redemption 2, follow these steps:

1. Pause the game and open the "Settings" menu.
2. Look for the "Cheats" section in the lower right corner (may require reaching a certain point in the story to unlock).
3. If the "Cheats" section is available, you'll see a list of phrases. These represent the cheat codes.
4. Find the desired cheat phrase in the game world and interact with it (usually written on a wall or carved on something).
5. Once you interact with the phrase, the cheat will be activated.

**Important:** Entering a cheat code will disable achievements/trophies for your current save file.

General Cheats

Here are some examples of cheat phrases you might encounter:

• Abundance is the dullest desire - Grants infinite ammo for all weapons.
• A simple life, a beautiful death - Gives you a set of basic weapons.
• Greed is American virtue - Gives you a set of heavy weapons.
• Death is silence - Gives you a set of stealth weapons.
• You shall never go thirsty again - Replenishes your Dead Eye meter.
• Seek not the treasure, for it will cost you your soul - Increases your wanted level by 5 stars (use with caution!).
<I am invincible! (This phrase might not be available in all versions) - Enables god mode (invincibility).

**Note:** These are just a few examples, and the specific phrases may vary depending on your game version.

Alternatives to Cheats

Consider these alternatives to using cheat codes:

• Explore the game world thoroughly to find hidden weapons, horses, and upgrades.
• Complete side missions, challenges, and hunting activities to earn money and experience.
• Master the game's mechanics (combat, hunting, horse riding) for a more rewarding experience.
• There are mods available for the PC version that can add new content or gameplay adjustments without resorting to cheats.
