The Sims 4: All Skill Cheats

The Sims 4 provides players with endless possibilities when it comes to how they want their Sims to live. They can experience unique jobs, life events, and relationships while building their Sims’ lifestyles and personalities in any way that they want.

Skills are essential for a Sim’s hobbies, jobs, goals, and certain storytelling elements. While Skills can be increased through gameplay, players can also use The Sims 4 skill cheats to help speed up the process. This guide has all the Skill cheats available in every DLC pack.

All Sims 4 Skill Cheats

Increasing Skills is an important aspect of The Sims 4 for many reasons. Sims with high skills sometimes get unique social interactions and have more options for higher-paying jobs. Some Skills are related to crafting, allowing Sims to make valuable paintings, songs, and books to sell.

Learning and maxing out Skills takes time and practice. While certain emotions, lot traits, or potions can boost a Sim’s Skill progression, it can still take several days of nonstop work to increase Skills. Luckily, players have a complete set of cheats dedicated to setting their Skill level.

How to Enable Cheats in The Sims 4

Before using any The Sims 4 cheat codes, console and PC players must ensure that cheats are enabled in their game save. To do so, they should open the cheat console by hitting Ctrl + Shift + C on PC, L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 on PlayStation, or LB + LT + RB + RT. Next, they’ll need to input testingcheats true or testingcheats on to enable cheats. Players can then enter cheat codes to change their Skill settings.

Skills are separated into a few categories:

Major

Minor

Child

Toddler

Major and Minor Skills can be learned by Teens, Young Adults, Adults, and Elders. Once Children max out their Child Skills, they gain access to certain Major and Minor ones.

Major Skills have ten levels, while Minor and Toddler Skills have five, except for the Potty Skill, which maxes out at level 3. Doing activities and using objects related to the Skills will level them up, but players don’t have to grind it out if they don’t want to. Here is a video demonstrating how to enable and use major, horse, child, and toddler skill cheats in The Sims 4:

Most of the Skill cheat codes follow a formula of stats.set_skill_level (Skill Type)_(Skill Name) X, with X being the desired level, but there are some variations. See below for a complete list of all of the Skill cheats in The Sims 4.
