Fallout 4: Every Cheat & Console Command for PC

Like many Bethesda games, Fallout 4 supports the use of cheat codes to help players customize their experience and play the game their way. As players wander The Commonwealth, they may find it beneficial to get more items and bottlecaps, increase their inventory capacity, or become invincible using God Mode. Cheats can be very powerful options and, when applied strategically, can improve the game experience.

To access cheats on PC, players must open the console first. Players can use the tilde (~) key (or the apostrophe key on some keyboards), which will pull up the light gray console in the lower half of the screen. They can type cheat codes there, press enter, and close the console to see the cheat take its full effect. Because cheating can sometimes corrupt save files or leave a player’s character perpetually stuck, it is always a good idea to back up a save file prior to inputting cheats to make sure it is possible to revert to an uncorrupted save. Here are all the available cheat codes for Fallout 4 for PC.
