Console commands allow players to modify game mechanics, enable cheats, and tweak settings in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Whether you want unlimited money, easier lockpicking, or gravity-defying horse jumps, console commands can help enhance your gameplay experience. 

Why are console commands useful? 

Console commands provide a unique way to customize the gameplay experience in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, offering both practical and experimental benefits. Many commands serve as quality-of-life improvements, such as enabling a crosshair while aiming a gun, which can improve combat precision. Others allow players to alter the game's difficulty by removing certain mechanics or making enemies more dangerous, catering to those who seek a greater challenge. 

Beyond difficulty adjustments, console commands also open up creative and entertaining gameplay possibilities. They let players manipulate gravity, change the weather, or spawn unlimited resources, essentially allowing them to "play god" within the game world. Additionally, console commands provide the only way to acquire exclusive items from previous limited-time promotions, such as Twitch Drops, pre-order bonuses, and Gold Edition content. Since these promotions are no longer available, console commands ensure that no content is permanently locked away from players. 

Do console commands disable achievements 

No, using console commands in KCD2 does not disable Steam achievements. You can freely use them without worrying about missing out on accomplishments. 

How to enable and use console commands

  1. Open Steam, right-click KCD2, and select Properties
  2. In the General section, find Launch Options and enter -devmode. 
  3. While in-game, press tilde (~) to open the console. 
  4. Type a command and press Enter
