Valheim: Full List of Cheats and Console Commands
Valheim gained quite a high popularity on Steam immediately after its release. The game was even featured on the store's front page, which made many players aware of this survival game. In addition to interesting gameplay and well-developed survival mechanics, the game also has mods and a large number of cheats and console commands that help and significantly ease various aspects of the game. In this article, we will explore all available cheats and commands for Valheim.
Using cheats: how to use cheats and console commands in Valheim
Many games initially do not support a developer console, which requires downloading various cheats that often contain viruses and miners. However, the Valheim developers took care of the players and included this possibility in the game. The console has several features that we will clarify in the article. It is not difficult to open the console.
But! In order to access full console commands, you need to enter a universal code.
Cheats for single-player mode in Valheim
After performing the aforementioned actions, you can already use these cheats. These commands are suitable only for single-player mode, but there are also specific codes for cooperative play, which we will definitely cover in the article. Meanwhile, here is the full list of cheats for single-player mode in Valheim.

Creative Mode: How to Enable and Its Features
Let's now look at how you can enable creative mode in Valheim and the features it provides.
That's straightforward, but what advantages does this mode offer? Actually, quite a lot!
- You gain access to the flying mode without using other console commands. Pressing the Z key activates this mode, allowing you to fly without any restrictions.
- There's also a convenient way to use the "killall" command with a single key (default: K). When pressed in this mode, all enemies within your field of view will be instantly killed.
- Pressing B will stop resources from being consumed, allowing you to build infinitely. Another notable aspect is that you no longer need workbenches for crafting in this mode, and you have access to all resources in the game.
