If you’re tired of playing the same old boring Skyrim but aren’t in the mood to look out for new mods, messing around with the console commands might be one of your best alternatives. Console commands are powerful tools that can enhance your gameplay experience dramatically. By simply pressing the grave key (‘) on your keyboard, you can access a treasure trove of commands that let you manipulate the game in ways you never thought possible.
Utilizing these commands allows you to spawn items, teleport, change your character's attributes, and even complete quests instantly. However, it is crucial to use them wisely, as some commands may disable achievements or cause unintended glitches in your game. In this guide, we will delve into the various console commands available in Skyrim, providing you with a comprehensive list and their functions.
Whether you're a seasoned player looking to refresh your experience or a newcomer eager to explore the depths of Tamriel, understanding console commands can be a game-changer. Here’s a list of all special commands available in the game.
You can use Skyrim console commands on PC versions by pressing the grave key (‘) on your keyboard. Enter your desired command and hit Enter to instantly receive an item, enable or disable features, or be teleported to far-away places. Note that for using certain commands, you’ll need a list of IDs for items, NPCs and more.
Some game editions might display the “using certain commands disables earning achievements” message, but this is only partially true. Further testing has shown that using commands directly won’t necessarily stop you from earning achievements. But you could technically lock yourself out of an achievement by skipping a quest or something, so be careful! Mods will inevitably disable achievements though, and there’s no console command to fix that.
These commands have various purposes, such as displaying information on items, marking NPCs as references, or modifying values like in-game time.
Use these to freely move around the map.
