Check out the comprehensive list of all Starfield Console Commands and Cheats, a familiar mechanic for veteran Skyrim players.
Much like Skyrim, Starfield offers a wide array of console commands that can enhance your gameplay experience. These commands allow you to manipulate the game world, access items, and even alter your character’s skills. For instance, you can use commands to spawn items like weapons or armor or even tweak your character’s traits and backgrounds, which is impossible with official methods.
How do Console Commands and Cheats Work in Starfield?
To use console commands in Starfield, simply press the tilde (~) key on your keyboard, which should be familiar to Skyrim players. This opens up the console interface. From there, type your desired command and press Enter to execute it. For example, if you want to add a specific item to your inventory, you can use the “player.additem” command followed by the item’s code.
However, it’s important to note that using console commands or cheats in Starfield will disable the ability to earn achievements during your playthrough. So, while they can provide an extra layer of fun or help you out of a tough spot, use them wisely to avoid missing out on those coveted in-game accomplishments. If you like to use modifications, you can easily turn the achievements back on with the special mod created by one of the players.
