Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (2005) returns players to the iconic fog-filled streets of Liberty City, set three years before the events of GTA III. As Toni Cipriani, you are tasked with putting the Leone crime family back on top. Originally a PSP masterpiece and later ported to PS2 and mobile, this game maintains the classic Rockstar tradition of high-octane cheat codes that can turn a desperate street war into an absolute rout.
This guide provides the most comprehensive and verified list of cheats for both PlayStation (PSP/PS2) and Mobile (iOS/Android) platforms.
Performance & Save Warning
- Achievement Lockdown: If you are playing the mobile version, certain cheats may disable achievements for that session.
- Permanent Changes: Cheats like “Pedestrians Riot” or “Pedestrians Have Weapons” are permanent if you save your game after activating them. Always maintain a separate “Clean Save” to avoid bricking your story progress.
