We have explained the detailed process of activating and using cheats in The Sims 4 For Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4.

If you want to take over the game quickly and easily, the best way is to use the cheats but using the cheats is a whole process in Sims 4. We have explained the detailed process of activating and using cheats in The Sims 4 For Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4.

The process for using the cheats in each console is different, so we have solved this problem in this guide by briefly explaining each one. This guide for The Sims 4 also includes all cheats to help you get infinite money in Sims 4, UI extension mod, and Items. We have made separate headings for each cheat so you can find them easily.

How to Enable Cheats in The Sims 4

Cheats are tough to remember, but The Sims 4 has made the process much more difficult by adding a step before utilizing the cheats. To use the cheat, you must first activate it. These cheats can help you in many ways, as they let you tweak the game to your needs and unlock different career items in Sims 4. This may be done by following one of the following methods, depending on the console you’re using:

For PC.

Hold down Ctrl + Shift + C if you’re on a PC.

For Mac.

If you’re using a Mac, hold down Command + Shift + C.

For Xbox One

If you’re using an Xbox One, simultaneously press all the trigger buttons.

For Playstation 4

If you’re using PlayStation 4, simultaneously press all the trigger buttons.

How to Enable Testing Cheats

Enabling cheats is different in every console because of the difference in controls but enabling testing cheats is the same for every console because it is just like a cheat, and you know cheats are universal for every platform in Sim 4.

When you enable cheats, a pop-up box will display on the screen. Press enter after typing testingcheats true or testingcheats on. After that, the game will confirm that the cheats have been enabled.

If you wish to turn off the cheats for whatever reason, type testingcheats false or testingcheats off in the same pop-up window. Then, in the same pop-up window, type and enter to input the real cheats.

Shift-Click Cheats

There is an option in Sims 4 to show more cheat options by shift-clicking on the sims. Don’t worry if you are playing on PlayStation or Xbox, as both don’t have the shift button.

To shift-click on Playstation, press X + O simultaneously, and for Xbox, press A + B simultaneously. For example, if you want to boost your Sim’s mood, right-click on the Sim and pick Cheat Need. After doing this, you can boost the mood of your Sim.

If you want your Sim to not want anything like food or rest, you may also disable need decay by choosing cheat Need and Disable Need Decay.

You can do several things while Shift-Clicking like:

  • Rest the status of the Sim.
  • Teleport the Sim by Shift-clicking on the arrival location.
