Turn on godmode, give yourself every item and weapon, add extra followers, and more with Sons of the Forest console commands.
Looking for cheats in Sons of the Forest? You can use console commands to turn on godmode, give yourself every item in the game, change the time of day or the weather, teleport around the map, or even spawn an army of helpful Kelvins to get your cabin built extra quickly. And here’s more good news: It’s pretty easy to access a debug console for the early access survival game that’ll let you do all that and more.
To enable cheats in Sons of the Forest, you’ll need a couple of mods you can find at Thunderstore, a popular mod repository for games like Valheim, Boneworks, and now Sons of the Forest. First you’ll want to install the Thunderstore Mod Manager, and then use that to install BepInExPack IL2CPP and the Sons of the Forest DebugConsole mod.
Once installed, launch Sons of the Forest by choosing the “Modded” option on the top right of the Thunderstore interface. It may take a while to load if it’s the first time you’ve launched the game this way, but after that first time it should load much more quickly.
Once Sons of the Forest has launched, start a new game or load a save. Once you’re in the game, press F1 to bring up the debug console. In the top left corner of your screen, you’ll see the console field to type commands. Press F1 again to close the console.
Below you’ll find the commands we’ve tested, followed by a general list of commands discovered by the mod’s creator, CallMeSlinky. We haven’t tested them all and aren’t sure what many of them do yet, so be sure to back up your saved games if you’re worried about corrupting your save file. Your saved games should be located at: C:User[UserName]AppDataLocalLowEndnightSonsOfTheForestSaves

Here are the rest of the console commands you can use in the debug console mod, though we haven’t tested most of them yet. Some may require a number following them to work, others may require an on/off statement following them. Be careful when using them and remember to back up your saved games.
