Valheim Cheats & Spawn Commands

Valheim swept the globe with its release at the start of the year, with the game-breaking Steam charts and provided players with a much-needed escape from a horrendous year. For those of you looking to advance quicker in the game, or just to enjoy a chill, less grindy experience, there are both Valheim cheats and spawn commands.

Before using Valheim cheats, you will need to activate console commands, but you don’t do this in-game; you will need to go to Steam and right-click on Valheim, click on properties and add -console to the launch options. This will activate console commands, allowing you to use the Valheim cheats in-game.

Now that you’ve enabled the console, you will want to head into the game and jump on your Valheim server or save. Press F5 when in-game and type devcommands. Once you have done this, all the cheat commands will now work.
