All Starfield console commands & item IDs on PC, from god mode to noclip

As is standard in Bethesda's sprawling RPGs, Starfield has its own list of console commands for you to use that let you enter noclip or god modes or spawn all kinds of items.

You're free to use them as much or as little as you like in the game - as long as you're on PC. I've often found myself wishing I had a few more credits or ammo in a pinch, and you can use these commands to add items you might be lacking or completely shake up your playthrough. 

The first thing you'll want to know is how to actually use these console commands in Starfield. Thankfully, it's as easy as pressing the ~ (tilde) key on your keyboard. This is typically found in the top left of most boards, above the TAB key, and pressing it should bring up a window where you can enter any console command that you like.

• The command itself might be different on keyboards outside of the US, however, with the command being the '"' key on UK keyboards and the 'Ö' key on German devices
• From there, just enter your desired command and press enter to activate it in-game
• For some, like the unlock command, you'll have to click on the item that you wish to unlock to target the command

Additionally, other commands do require a specific custom value to be inputted too, like increasing your carry capacity, adding an item ID to your inventory or setting your player level, so that will need to be taken into account as well.

Do console commands disable achievements?

Yes, some console commands in Starfield disable achievements, so you might have to forgo those satisfying rewards if you're looking to have complete control over your game.

However, our best mods guide covers a way to reactivate these, so you're not completely out of luck if you're set on unlocking achievements.

Click to enlarge

While not every console command will do this, certain selections will mark your current save game as 'Modded', thus disabling the ability to earn achievements as you play. Ones that we have tested that disable achievements are:

• tgm
• tmm 1
• setscale
• kill
• killall

It seems like anything that has a significant impact on the game will disable achievements, so be careful when using those kinds of commands.

The only way to get around this is to reload a save before you used the console commands, or by downloading the Starfield Achievement Enabler from Nexus Mods.

While many of Starfield's console commands found above work on their own, there are a few that require you to input an item ID to spawn specific items or ammo, for example.

These item IDs are an eight-character string of letters and numbers that you will need to figure out, but we've got all of the best Starfield item IDs for you below so you don't have to do all of the searching yourself. These codes include credits, Digipicks, ammo and other helpful items that you'll need a lot of in the game.

General items

Helmets

Spacesuits

How to get & find item ID codes

If you can't find a particular item in the list above, you can also use the in-game console command window to help you:

• Open the console command window (~)
• Type 'help[#]' without the quotes, and replace the [#] with the name of the item that you're looking for
  • For example, if you were looking for the 11mm XPL item ID code, you would type 'help 11mm xpl'
• Look for the eight-character string in brackets, found next to the item type
  
  • In this instance it should look something like 'AMMO: (002B5593) 11mm XPL', and it is the bit in the brackets that you're looking for
• Copy the section within the brackets and use the player.additem console command found above to add it to your inventory

With that, your options are nearly limitless - just as long as you know the same of the item that you're looking for. This can be helpful for boosting your credits, getting some extra Digipicks for lockpicking, or bolstering your inventory with new weapons and ammo.

Sadly, it's not currently possible to use console commands on the Xbox version of Starfield. Even if you plug a mouse and keyboard into your Xbox, you won't be able to open the console menu. This means that the feature is exclusive to the PC version.

This was also the case for Skyrim and Fallout 4, and it's probably for a good reason. The use of some console commands can cause excess strain on the machine Starfield is running on. Spawning in a hundred robot companions and making them all supersized would likely cause several issues on the Xbox Series X, and especially the Series S.

As such, it's unlikely that console commands will ever come to Xbox, but this guide will be updated if Bethesda adds the functionality later down the line.

Now that you're all up to speed with the different console commands and item IDs, check out our Starfield homepage, where you'll find guides on how to get the best ships, some great locations for outposts, or how to change FOV.
