Five free codes just landed in Roblox Wanted, the GTA-style crime game where you rob banks, loot ATMs, and try not to get arrested long enough to spend any of it. The codes went live on May 5, 2026, and they are handing out cash, grenades, and firearms to anyone who redeems them before the expiry clock runs out.
What the new codes actually give you
Wanted codes have historically expired fast, which makes this batch worth flagging immediately. All five codes below are confirmed active as of today:
The two cash codes together hand you 20,000 in-game currency, which is a solid head start for buying better gear. The weapons, though, are the real draw. A free Uzi plus a stack of C4 and grenades is the kind of loadout that makes surviving a five-star wanted level a lot more realistic.
What expired and what that tells us about the drop rate
Three codes are now dead: BAYVIEW, EASTER, and ZORVELLO. The Easter code going offline is expected, but the other two suggest the developers rotate codes tied to community milestones or updates rather than a fixed schedule. The key here is that there is no predictable cadence, so waiting to redeem is a gamble.
The jump from three expired codes to five brand-new ones in a single update is a bigger drop than Wanted players have seen in recent months. That lines up with the game pushing for growth, as the developers have been active on their Discord server with sneak peeks at upcoming content.
How redemption works after the tutorial gate
Wanted locks its code system behind the tutorial, which trips up a lot of new players who try to redeem on day one and hit a wall. Once you finish the tutorial, the path is straightforward: open the game, hit the Menu button in the top right, select Shop, then Codes, and paste your code into the ENTER CODE... field before hitting Redeem.
The tutorial gate is actually a smart design choice. It stops players from front-loading free gear before they understand the game's systems, though it does mean anyone who bounced before finishing the intro needs to go back and complete it first.
For players who want to stay ahead of the next code drop, the Roblox newsroom covers platform-wide updates, while the Wanted Discord is the fastest source for game-specific codes directly from the development team. You can also browse more guides as new Wanted codes get confirmed.
