Cheats in Redemption

Cheats allow the player to access a variety of features and resources in the game immediately. However, in RDR this instant gratification comes at a steep price: Using cheats will block achievements and game saving.

Both are disabled until a game save is loaded (or a new game is started).

How to Enter and Use Cheats
To access the cheats, go to the Options menu and select the "Cheats" option. Then press "Triangle" (PS3) or "Y" (Xbox 360) and type in the cheat phrase. Once activated, you cannot save the game or obtain Achievements/Trophies and will have to load a previous save to do so once more. That means you cannot use cheats to finish a hard mission, because you won't be able to save afterwards. Therefore it is not advised to cheat and then do anything worth saving, unless you don't want to proceed in the game.

Some cheats can also be found in the bottom corner of in-game Newspapers or written on the walls of certain structures. Other cheats become available after successfully linking your Xbox Live or PSN account with the Rockstar Social Club (see below).

''Note: Cheats are not case sensitive, although they do require the correct commas and punctuation. Also, some cheats may only work for the PS3.''

Join the Club!
Several additional cheats are added to your list by creating an account on the Rockstar Games Social Club and linking it with your Xbox Live Gamer Tag/PSN account. The following cheats are not added via a code; instead the player has to 'Claim' those cheats from the website which will be automatically activated on the console. (An internet connection will be needed).

It may also require that you restart the game to let the cheats sync with the game.
