This page includes PC Console Commands and Cheats for the PC/Steam version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It has been updated to include Skyrim Special Edition and Anniversary Editions. Console Commands are an essential tool that players can use to enter cheats into the game. To enter Skyrim cheats into the PC Commands Console, hit ~ (or the key above Tab) to bring up the developer console, and enter these codes for the desired effect. Console commands are NOT case-sensitive.

Most Useful Skyrim Cheats

Here are the console commands that players might find most useful to have on-hand during their time in Skyrim. Remember to check the Item Codes list for the Add Item cheat.

Level Up

To increase your abilities in any given skill tree, you can use the console commands to your advantage in two ways:

• Add individual perks to each skill tree
• Add experience to each skill tree
  (This will also help you level up quickly)

TO ADD SKILL EXPERIENCE

AdvSkill [[[[[Skill|Skill]]|Skill]] ID] [#] to grant yourself a certain amount of experience in a given skill category. The value of experience points varies from skill to skill, so we suggest choosing a skill you want to become HIGHLY proficient in (maybe... all of them?) and starting there.

The table below indicates how many experience points will increase each skill by one level. In terms of overall player level, it takes an increasing and variable amount of XP to level up, so feel free to use the player.setlevel [#] command.

TO ADD INDIVIDUAL PERKS
To add individual perks,  use the console command player.addperk [perk ID]
(Consult our list of Perk IDs on the Item Codes page).

For example, to add the Sneaking perk 'Silent Roll,' enter
player.addperk 105F23 into the command console. While the skill will turn gray in the skills menu (normally indicating that you are under-level for the desired perk), you will still be able to utilize it's abilities. Alternatively, you could pre-empt this process by using the player.setlevel ##
