Console Commands and Cheats: Kingdom Come Deliverance

Updated  January 2025

This updated guide provides a comprehensive list of console commands for Kingdom Come: Deliverance (KCD) on PC. These commands allow you to tweak various aspects of the game, from graphics settings to gameplay mechanics.

Important Note: Using console commands can potentially cause instability or unintended consequences in your game. Use them at your own risk. It's always a good idea to back up your save files before experimenting with console commands. Also, note that traditional "cheat codes" for infinite money, items, or invincibility are generally no longer available in the retail version of the game. This guide focuses on currently working commands.

How to Open the Console:

Press the tilde key (~) or the grave accent key (`) on your keyboard (usually located to the left of the '1' key and above the Tab key). On some keyboards, you may need to press the caret key (^).

Working Console Commands (Categorized):

Here's a breakdown of working console commands, categorized for easier navigation:

Graphics and Display:

• g_showHUD 0/1: Toggles the Heads-Up Display (HUD) on or off. Use "0" to hide the HUD and "1" to show it.
• wh_ui_showCompass 0/1: Toggles the compass on or off. Use "0" to hide the compass and "1" to show it.
• cl_fov X: Sets the field of view (FOV). Replace "X" with the desired value (e.g., cl_fov 90 for a 90-degree FOV). The default is usually 60.
• e_ViewDistRatio X: Changes the overall view distance. Higher values increase the distance at which objects are rendered, but can impact performance.
• e_ViewDistRatioVegetation X: Changes the view distance specifically for trees and vegetation.
• e_MergedMeshesInstanceDist X: Changes the draw distance for smaller plants and foliage.
• r_MotionBlur 0/1: Toggles motion blur on or off. Use "0" to disable and "1" to enable.
• r_vsync 0/1: Toggles vertical synchronization (VSync) on or off. Use "0" to disable and "1" to enable.

If you're diving into Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and want to unlock some extra power or take shortcuts, using console commands and cheats can be a great way to enhance your experience. Whether you're looking for unlimited health, unlocking new features, or activating God Mode, these cheats can give you the control you need to tailor your gameplay.

Gameplay and World:

• p_gravity_z X: Changes the gravity. The default value is usually -13. Adjusting this can create interesting gameplay effects (but be careful!).
• e_TimeOfDay: Displays the current time of day in the game world.
• wh_pl_showfirecursor 1/0: Toggles the aiming reticle (crosshair) when using a bow. Use "1" to enable and "0" to disable.
• wh_dlg_chatbubbles X: Shows chat bubbles (X = 1) or hides them (X = 0).
• r_depthofFieldmode 0/1: Disables (0) or enables (1) depth of field in dialogues.
• wh_ui_showHealthbar X: Shows (1) or hides (0) the health bar.

Teleportation (Requires Cheat Mod):

These commands generally require a cheat mod to be installed. Check Nexus Mods for the most up-to-date mod. These are examples, and the specific commands might change with mod updates.

• cheat_tp_bh: Teleports the player to a bathhouse.
• cheat_tp_cb: Teleports the player to a charcoal-burner camp.
• cheat_tp_ee: Teleports the player to an easter egg location.
• cheat_tp_bc: Teleports the player to a bandit camp.
• cheat_tp_ml: Teleports the player to a mill.
• cheat_tp_tvn: Teleports the player to a tavern.
• cheat_tp_gn: Teleports the player to a woodland garden.
• cheat_tp_hl: Teleports the player to a herbalist.
• cheat_tp_wc: Teleports the player to a woodcutter camp.

Other Commands (May Require Cheat Mod):

These commands often require a cheat mod and their functionality can change with mod updates:

• cheat_teleport x: Y z:: Teleports the player to specific coordinates. You'll need to find the X, Y, and Z coordinates for the desired location.
• Various cheat_add_* and cheat_remove_* commands: These commands, when available through mods, can add or remove items, perks, buffs, etc. However, these are often subject to change with mod updates. Check the mod's documentation for details.
• cheat_set_time hours: X: Sets the in-game time.

Outdated or Non-Functional Commands:

Many of the "cheat" commands that were available in earlier versions or beta versions of the game, such as wh_cheat_money (for adding money) and wh_cheat_addItem (for adding items), are no longer functional in the retail version without specific mods.

Keeping Up-to-Date:

The best way to stay informed about the latest console commands and any changes is to:

• Check Nexus Mods: Look for mods related to console commands or cheats. These mods often introduce new commands or restore functionality to older ones. The mod pages usually contain the most accurate and up-to-date information.
• Consult the KCD Community: Online forums and communities dedicated to Kingdom Come: Deliverance can be valuable resources for finding information about console commands.

This revised version provides a more structured, accurate, and user-friendly guide to KCD console commands. It emphasizes currently working commands, categorizes them for easier use, and directs users to reliable sources for the most up-to-date information. nexusmods

The PC version of the Kingdom Come Deliverance (KCD) allows you to customize certain features. When you're playing KCD, you can use KCD console commands to manipulate some parameters of the game and control the graphics.

How to activate cheats in KCD: If you've already played KCD during its testing stages, then you may know that there was the possibility to enter cheats for infinite money, items, and weapons. However, these cheats have been removed in the final version of the game, so you cannot use them at least for now.

Below you can find all the available console commands that worked during the testing phases of the game.

To open the console for English/US keyboard press ~ or ^ keys

q - Quit the game without saving.

New Updates 

Change Log updated 2025

1.58

@Lindelt: Added new command cheat_add_skill_xp to add xp to skills.

See PR https://github.com/pryans/kcd-cheat/pull/49 for the specific changes

1.57
@wilecoyote: Set fall dmg to zero for immortal buff
See PR https://github.com/pryans/kcd-cheat/pull/48 for the specific changes

1.56

Adds 2 new commands cheat_save_all_items and cheat_load_all_items.

cheat_save_all_items: Saves inventory to temporary game memory. Intended for situations where the contents of your inventory will be lost due to game mechanics. i.e. A Woman's Lot (DLC). See cheat_load_all_items.

cheat_load_all_items: Loads all items stored by cheat_save_all_items in this game session.

From aleksey-orekhov: You can now run cheat_save_all_items just before the end of the "A womans lot" dlc to save all your items to a global variable, and then run "cheat_load_all_items" once you are back in control of Henry to keep everything you found as Theresa. Be sure to give Theresa a big THANK YOU afterwards! Both commands must be run in the same game session. If you exit KCD after running cheat_save_all_items , the saved items will not persist for your next invocation of the cheat_load_all_items command. Saving items does NOT remove them from your inventory.

See pull request https://github.com/pryans/kcd-cheat/pull/43 for aleksey-orekhov's changes.

1.55

@wilecoyote Added a bunch of dlc related npcs, horses, buffs, perks and codex entries to cheat_localization.lua (see comments about Master Locator Marius at Nexus) so that we can find them with the command cheat_find_npc

See PR https://github.com/pryans/kcd-cheat/pull/42 for the specific changes

1.54

Changed the command cheat_reveal_map to be consistent and less confusing.

Minor fix for cheat_teleport_to (exchanged places 9 and 10. See comments on Nexus)

The functionality of cheat_no_stash_lockpicking and cheat_no_door_lockpicking were reversed.

See PR https://github.com/pryans/kcd-cheat/pull/40 and https://github.com/pryans/kcd-cheat/pull/41 for the specific changes

1.53

See #38 from wilecoyote

Teleport Command Changes

Added a lot of teleport commands (bandit camps, bath houses, charcoal-burner camps, woodland gardens, herbalists, mills, taverns, and woodcutter camps)

Added additional locations for bath houses, charcoal-burner camps, herbalists, mills, taverns, and woodcutter camps.

Removed doubled entries for treasure chests.

Invisibility and Immortal Buff Changes

Changed invisibility and immortal buff to be cheat specific.

BREAKING CHANGE: These commands are not backward compatible.
cheat_add_buff_immortal

cheat_add_buff_invisible

If you have used these commands then you need to:

REMOVE the buffs using mod version 1.52

cheat_remove_buff_immortal

cheat_remove_buff_invisible

save your game

upgrade to 1.53

then run the commands again if you want to still use them each time your start the game.

cheat_add_buff_immortal

cheat_add_buff_invisible

NOTE: cheat_add_buff_immortal and cheat_add_buff_invisible no longer persist through restarts of the game. The buff IDs are unique to cheat mod starting in 1.53 so they will not conflict with the base game or other mods. If you want these buffs to always be enabled you need to run the commands manually or use the autoexec file.
