The Sims 4 Cheat Codes

[Veronica Hernandez]

Lets be real: not a single one of us is life simming without some form of Sims 4 cheats up our sleeves. Whether you're working on your next cottage build, or setting up for one of the popular Sims 4 challenges, or just moving that new family into the mansion they can't afford, cheats are here to solve your problems.

We've got a huge cheat sheet for you full of all the live mode shortcuts you need, build mode unlockables, and that one cheat for unlocking career entitlements that I guarantee none of us have memorized.

Every one of Sims 4's expansions and packs also has its own set of cheats. Usually, those cheats are tied to the jobs, deaths, and traits that are unique to that expansion or pack. We've organized the page to make it easy to find tables for all the skills, careers, and traits you might need to max out your Sim's level in. With a handy Ctrl+F, you can search the page for the name of the expansion or pack you're wanting to find cheats for.

For certain cheats, including thost marked as "shift click," you'll first need to use the "testingCheats true" cheat. With testing cheats on, you can unlock some new Shift-Click menu options on Sims, objects, or the ground.

With testingCheats active, you'll be able to move Sims between families, fill up their needs and happiness bars, dirty or clean up objects, and teleport Sims anywhere you like, among a few others detailed below.

Spending all your money on groceries and bills is too much like real life. Why make your Sims start at the bottom when it's way more fun to start at the top? Enter any of these Sims 4 money cheat keywords into the cheat console to instantly gain stacks of cash.

Several different Sims 4 expansions have added different types of occult Sims. So long as you have the corresponding DLC, here's how to turn your Sims into your favorite kind of weirdo using the traits.equip_trait cheat:

One of the first things you might be compelled to do with Eco Lifestyle cheats is change your neighborhood's Eco Footprint. If you just can't stand starting out with an industrial neighborhood, use eco_footprint.set_eco_footprint_state with one of these numbers:

Get your teen Sims through (or kicked out of) school with these cheats for graduating and getting expelled. These are all handled through the trait system, so you'll use the cheat traits.equip_trait [trait] to help them graduate, get expelled, or drop out:

Like other traits, you can use traits.remove_trait to get rid of each as well. You can find more Highschool Years cheats for careers, skills, and personality traits in the tables below.

If you're finding that your Sims' difficulty in meeting new people is a little too relatable, the cheat console code relationship.introduce_sim_to_all_others will instantly introduce your Sim to all their neighbors.

traits.equip_trait Ghost_OldAge [Pet ID] will turn your pet into a ghost if you are either an absolute monster or (spoiler alert) attempting an elaborate Sim version of John Wick. To get your pet's ID (you monster), use sims.get_sim_id_by_name [PetFirstName] [PetLastName]

Use stats.set_skill_level [skill code] [#] to set your Sim's skill to any level you want. Substitute in the skill code and the skill level you want, which should look something like: "stats.set_skill_level Major_Writing 10"

And for all you horse enthusiasts, before you can modify your ride's skills, you'll need to find their HorseID with sims.get_sim_id_by_name [HorseFirstName] [HorseLastName]. Once you have your HorseID, make sure you append it at the end of each skill command, so it should look like this: stats.set_skill_level Horse_Temperament 10 [HorseID#].

careers.promote [career] and careers.remove [career] work in the same way to get a promotion or remove your Sim's job. You can also use careers.retire [career] to quit your job and collect a weekly pension.

You can pick certain traits for your Sims during the Create-A-Sim process that control some of their preferences, habits, and how they react to other Sims. The quickest way to add and remove standard traits is to use the cas.fulleditmode cheat and then the Shift+Click cheat for "Modify in CAS" to change your Sim's traits.

However, there's a long list of other traits that you can only get in other ways such as buying them with Aspiration Points or when a Sim grows into a new age group. Here are all the handy codes for the traits you won't find tucked away in the Create-A-Sim menu.

There are three different modes in The Sims 4: Create-a-Sim mode, Build mode, and Live mode. You can enter Build/Buy cheats in both Live mode or Build mode, but you must be in Build mode to use them. The Build mode cheats include codes for moving objects, expanding the Build/Buy catalog, and more.

To activate Sims 4 cheats on PS4 and Xbox One, load into the game and hold down all four triggers at the same time. A thin textbox will appear at the top of the screen. Enter "testingcheats true" in the textbox to enable cheats.

While motherlode and rosebud are beloved cheats, an easier way to get your sims the Simoleons they need is by typing "Money X" with X being the amount you want to give your household. You can also use this to subtract funds from your household.

The Sims 4 official FAQ says that seasonal events with the NPC Jessica Holiday aren't currently planned for The Sims 4 on console, but items from past events (like Sugar Skulls, Holiday Cracker Plushies, Decorative Eggs, and Magic Beans) are still in the game. You can get them using cheats.

In the Objects by Function menu select the Decorations tab. Go to the Misc decorations, scroll through all the new items, and you'll find Sugar Skulls and the other event collectibles. Buy them, drop them in the world, and have your Sims put the items in their inventory to have them add it to their "Household Collections."

If you enable additional cheats using the testinghcheats true code and then type in cas.fulleditmode, you will enable all CAS abilities. Then you can press and hold A + B or X + O while clicking on the objects listed below to produce a menu that lets you select the corresponding effect.

It's fair to say, though, that with so many expansions, there are a lot of cheat codes. We've separated all the cheats into relevant categories and have jump links to help you get to where you need to go quickly.

To use Sims 4 cheat codes, you first need to enable cheats in the game itself. Be warned, though: enabling cheats will mean that achievements or trophies are turned off in this particular save.

On Xbox One, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S, you can access the cheat menu by pressing and holding LT + RT + LB + RB for a couple of seconds. This will bring up the cheat menu, in which you need to type testingCheats true to enable cheats in this save.

The only exceptions to this system are the Interaction Cheats, which are activated in a slightly different way. You still need to be in a world with testingCheats true activated, but then you need to follow the steps below (depending on your platform of choice).

To use The Sims 4 Interaction Cheats on PS4 or PS5, with testingCheats true already activated, hover the cursor over a Sim or an object, hold down Circle and then press X to bring up the Interaction Cheats menu.

Or on PC, after activating testingCheats true, hold shift and then click on the Sim/item in question - this will make the Interaction Cheats menu appear, and you can choose from a variety of cheats that it will list for you. All the other cheats in the game can just be typed into the cheat console as we discussed before. For the full list of what you can do, read on!

To use any of those Sims 4 Career cheats, type the bold wording above followed by the official designation for your career of choice. The list of Careers and their designated cheat code words is below, with the part you need to type in bold:
