Here you find the full list of GTA Vice City Stories Cheats for the PS2 and PSP versions of the game.

There are a total of 36 different cheat codes in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, out of these, 4 are available exclusively on the PSP for the multiplayer version of the game.

These cheats allow you to wreak havoc in Vice City and have some extra fun. This Cheat Codes Guide shows you how you can use them to restore your Health & Armor, get sets of weapons, spawn a Tank, control the weather or your wanted level, or how to do the GTA Vice City Stories money cheat.

How to Enter GTA Vice City Stories Cheats

Entering GTA VCS cheats for PS2 and PSP is easy: simply enter the button combinations on the controller for your desired cheat listed below, and a confirmation message will appear. You can enter cheats at any time during general gameplay, without needing to pause the game.

However, make sure to save the game before using cheats in GTA VCS: while you can de-activate some GTA VCS cheats by simply re-entering them, certain cheats cannot be disabled (such as Pedestrians Riot and Pedestrians Attack) and will require you to load a previous save file.

Multiplayer Cheat Codes can only be used on the PSP version of the game, as they unlock special multiplayer content for the game.
