Every single console command in Starfield so you can explore the universe in a way that best suits you.

Starfield console commands are an extremely valuable tool. These allow players to do a myriad of things that would otherwise be impossible or take a considerable amount of time. You might choose to make yourself invincible or unlock additional skill points. No matter how you want to use them, the console commands are there if you need them.

Note: Using Starfield console commands will permanently disable Achievement progress on the character. This can be fixed with mods.

As with many other games, you can enter the console commands by pressing the tilde key (~) on your keyboard. This is typically directly below the Esc key and beside the 1 key. Pressing it once will cause the command line to appear at the bottom of the screen. You can now type a console command into it and press Enter to confirm the command. Press the tilde key again to close the command line.

Though you can’t use console commands in Starfield on Xbox in the traditional sense, it is theoretically possible (we’ve not had a chance to test it). Anyone who has purchase Starfield through the Microsoft Store or has it on PC Game Pass will also be able to access the game on Xbox. The trick is to load up on PC, use the commands you want (like more credits), save your game, and then shift to your Xbox and resume play.

Using the console command in Starfield will disable Achievements. This is used to prevent players from being able to easily just unlock all the Achievements. However, you can circumvent this retriction by downloading mods like the Achievement Enabler mod on Nexus Mods. Please refer to the mod description on the site to see how to install it. These instructions may be updated over time, so it's best to refer to the source. Additionally, if you update Starfield you may need to re-enable this mod again.

While you can refer to the tables below for everything you need, you can also look up item IDs in-game using Starfield's console commands. This is the command you type in but you'll be replacing the brackets and what appears in them:

help (item name) 4 (form type)

If you wanted to find the item ID for Trauma Pack you would enter help trauma pack 4

The (form type) is used to narrow down your search parameters. If you search something and you get too many results, try inputting some of the following shorthand letters into the command.

All item IDs in the game should be eight digits long and will be hexadecimal. If an ID starts with a zero, you can drop the zero. For example Europium is 00000570, so you should just be able to type in 570 and get the item you need.

You can use Starfield commands to add Starborn Powers and level them up. Use the player.addspell to unlock a power and then the player.addperk command to level it up. For example, unlock Anti-Gravity Field by typing player.addspell 2BACBA and then level it up by typing player.addperk 25E19C. You can add a number to the end to level it up to the specified rank (up to 10).

You can change the quality of the weapon by putting it on the ground (player.placeatme works), opening the console, selecting it to get its unique ID, and then using the code: [UniqueID].amod [QualityID]

There are a few quality levels:

The player.additem command is the best one to use for ammo, as it will add the items directly into your inventory. If, for some reason, you need to use the player.placeatme command (below), just know that it will place the ammo as individual bullets around you. You'll spend a lot of time picking up rounds.
