The Witcher 3 console commands and cheats list
Looking for an up-to-date list of The Witcher 3 cheats and console commands? «Evil is evil,» opines Geralt during one of his many Ethics 101 lectures. «Lesser, greater, middling. It’s all the same.» So we can infer that he probably wouldn’t think too much of us using all these The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt cheats and console commands to assume godlike powers of creation and destruction — but hey, if he starts complaining, we can just turn him into Ciri, who I’m sure is far less scrupulous about such things.

CD Projekt Red recently announced seven brand new games, including an upcoming Witcher trilogy and a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077.
How to enable the Witcher 3 console
In order to make use of the dizzying array of The Witcher 3 console commands below, you’ll first have to enable the console. But follow the below steps and you’ll be done in seconds! After that, you can spend time perusing our definitive Witcher 3 cheats list in the table below. So let’s get started!
Enabling the console in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is dead easy, and should take you less than a minute. Here are the steps:
- Open up Windows Explorer and navigate to your Witcher 3 folder.
- Alternatively, right-click The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in your Steam Library, and click Manage — Browse Local Files, which will open up Windows Explorer to that same folder.
- From here, navigate to bin — config — base, and open up the general.ini file with Notepad++ or Notepad.
- On a new line at the bottom of the file, type «DBGConsoleOn=true» without the quote marks.
- Save and close the file, then run The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
- Once in-game, you can open and close the console by pressing either @ or # or F2.
And there you have it! Now, whenever you want to input a particular console command, you just open up the console, type the command, and hit Enter.
The Witcher 3 console commands list
Below is a comprehensive list of all console commands and cheats in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, along with a description of their function and how to use them.
Be sure to use the search box at the top of the table to find a specific command!
Note: If a command has brackets, it requires certain parameters (the italicised sections). Certain parameters are optional, but most are required in order for the command to work.
Now, while using console commands in The Witcher 3 shouldn’t disable Steam achievements in theory, please bear in mind that video games are temperamental things, and attempts to use them in unsanctioned ways are always at the player’s own risk.
