List of Valheim console commands and cheats
Console commands are one of the easiest ways to bypass game systems and experience everything in Valheim.
A few things before you dabble into these cheats, though. Since the game is in early access, we don’t know how long these cheats will remain active, or how they will affect your game save in the long run. All cheats work in single-player, and while some also translate to multiplayer, your success may vary. Cheat at your own risk!
To get started, you first need to enable the ingame console by adding “-console” before launching the game. Right click Valheim in your Steam Library, go to Properties, and then add “-console” to the Launch Option window. Open up your game, and once loaded, pressF5to open the console command, and type
to activate cheats. Type it again to deactivate cheats.
0.150.3 Update
The 0.150.3 update added a new terrain system to Valheim. The new terrain modification system was made to reduce the number of network instances and make loading faster and smoother. All terrain modifications after this patch (using the hoe, pickaxe or cultivator) will automatically use the new modification system.
For existing areas where heavy terrain modifications have been made before this patch, you’ll want to use the special console command “optterrain” to basically convert all the old terrain modifications in the nearby area to the new system.

. Just make sure you’ve added the “-console” to your Launch Options.

These are all of the console commands and cheats in Valheim, as of early 2021. As previously mentioned, cheat responsibly, as we don’t know how these changes to the game may impact your save file in the long term.

It may be early, but Valheim is already a bonafide hit and is quickly becoming one of thebest survival games on the PC.
