Valheim is a Viking survival game that can be both rewarding and extremely difficult. After you’ve put a few hours into the game, you may want to make use of console commands to enable or disable some gameplay features. This guide will list of all console commands currently available.
The number of commands and cheats is vast and covers all sorts of helpful features for both solo and multiplayer modes. But before using the inputs below, you must first activate them. Please note that inputs are case-sensitive, and you do not need to include the brackets.
How to Enable Valheim Console Commands
If you’re playing solo, then these lines are available at any time. But if you’re playing on a multiplayer server, only the server host has access to them.
Either way, here’s what you need to do to enable them:
- Press “F5” during gameplay
- Type “imacheater” in the console that appears
- Press “Enter” to confirm
