Sims 4 Cheats, Cheat Codes, and Walkthroughs For Your PC

The Sims 4 for PC is a sandbox simulation game from Maxis that provides a different experience every time you play. It's an offshoot of the popular Sim City series that lets you throw different types of people, or sims, together, and see how they interact in your own little virtual world. When that gets boring, you can unlock a whole new way to play with some pretty powerful Sims 4 PC cheats. If you have the PS4 version or the Xbox One version of the game, you can also enter cheats but the process is different than this guide outlines.

How Do Cheats Work in The Sims 4 on PC?

Cheat codes for The Sims 4 on PC can give you more money, or even unlimited money, change a bunch of things about individual sims and provide you with access to every item in the game. They can even do fun and weird things like replacing a sim's head with a salad bowl or couch if you're looking for a quick laugh.


Some cheats change something about an individual sim, like increasing or decreasing the sim's skill in a particular field. You can freely increase and decrease these numbers as you like. Other cheats toggle something on or off. These cheats all include on or true somewhere in the command. To toggle the cheat back off, you simply use the same command and replace on or true with off or false.

How to Enable Cheats in The Sims 4 on PC

Before you can use cheats in The Sims 4 on PC, you need to enable them. This is accomplished by opening the cheat console and entering a simple command. Once you've enabled cheats, you'll be able to enter as many cheat codes as you like.

Here's how to enable cheats in The Sims 4 on PC:


  • Launch the game, and either load a save or create a new household.

  • Press and hold CTRL+Shift+C.

  • Select inside the thin box that appears at the top of the screen.

  • Type testing cheats true, and press enters on your keyboard.


When this process is completed successfully, you will see a message in the cheat console that says cheats are enabled. You can then enter any cheats you like into the cheat console. If the cheat console disappears, just press and hold CTRL, Shift, and C to open it back up.
