Skyrim players have the power to customise their game, using a range of cheat and console commands. Below, we’ve rounded up the complete list.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was first released in 2011 as the sequel to 2006’s Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Thanks to a ten-year anniversary re-release in 2021 that featured new quests and updates, Skyrim remains an essential and beloved RPG.
Players are tasked with defeating Alduin The World-Eater, a dragon who is prophesied to destroy the world, and need to traverse the land of Tamriel completing quests and boosting their skill to avoid armageddon. Thanks to Skyrim’s use of open-world though, the Dragonborn can put a pause on heroics to focus on more relaxing activities like fishing at any time.
Earlier this year, Bethesda confirmed that a sequel to Skyrim was in active development but thanks to the scope of Starfield, it won’t be the studio’s priority for a while, meaning there’s still plenty of time to explore every corner of Skyrim.
What are Skyrim cheat and console commands?
The easiest way to get the most out of Skyrim is a range of built-in cheat and console commands. These are only available to PC players and offer everything from the invincible god mode, to gently changing the weather.
PC players can access the developer console by hitting the ~ key ingame, before typing in the desired command code. Pressing ~ will then close the window, with players able to get right back to saving Tamriel.
Codes can be stacked, they aren’t case sensitive and typically, the effects of each one can be turned off by typing it in a second time.

Since some of these Skrim commands are particularly buggy, players are advised to create a back-up save file before they start experimenting. Also, achievements will be disabled as soon as you start entering these command codes, meaning players are unable to cheat their way to certain achievements.
