V Rising console commands and cheats can let you play around with a lot of the game's core aspects for fun and profit. It's a fairly painless process to set up - you'll just need to host a private game and grant yourself admin authority using console commands. 

Set that up - we can show you how below - and then you can start entering cheats via the console options. It'll let you do all manner of things at will from teleporting to any location on the V Rising map, or instantly giving yourself specific items, resources and even V Rising Merciless weapons and gear. Below we can run through the entire process of setting up and using V Rising console commands and cheats on offer, as well as all the cheats to try out.

To use console commands in V Rising for cheats you'll have to do the following:

1. Start a Private game

2. Pause and go to Options/General

3. Select "Console Enabled"

4. Unpause the game

5. Click ` , the button usually under the Escape key

6. Type "adminauth" (without quotation marks) and hit enter

7. You can now use and enter console commands!

You may not need to enter "adminauth" depending on the kind of server you're, but if it's not working, put it in just to be sure. Admin authority is basically having permission to enter console commands, so you will need it to play the game.

Once that's set up you can use the full list of console commands we have below below to change your game. You can also type "list" into your commands and get a primer on all the options available to you. There's actually a huge amount you can do in V Rising once you have a grip on all the input codes.

You might also have to re-enter the "adminauth" code each time you come back to a game to continue using cheats, so if your console commands aren't working, that's probably why. However, for the time being, let's discuss what you can actually do with console commands.

There's a plentiful list of console commands in V Rising that serve different functions. To make it easier to navigate we've arranged them into categories so just click on any of the side links for more info, or scroll down to see them in order. For most players, the first two categories will probably be enough, as they allow you to tinker with the world, your loadouts and equipment, as well as your position within it. Let's start through all the various console commands and what they do.

Speaking of CONSOLE commands, is V Rising on PS4 and PS5? Find out all the relevant information here!

To create and spawn various items in V Rising the key commands are "give" and "giveset", which gives you any item in the game, or a set of items if you click the latter option. 

Once you type one of those in, hit Tab and you'll be able to use the arrow keys to look through all the items in V Rising to see what you want (or start typing in the name to get an autocomplete), then select it, hit Tab again and enter the number of that item you want. Then hit the enter button, and it should appear in your inventory! 

  • Give (what, amount) - gives player item(s)
  • Giveset (what) - gives player item set
  • Changedurability - changes durability of equipped items

Social/Players/Clans

These console commands focus on relationships and permissions between players, clans and the general social aspect of V Rising (and therefore won't be much help to those who mainly play the V Rising offline mode). Still, we'll lay it all out below concisely for you.

  • Unban (User Index) - unban a player to allow them back into the server.

UI, accessibility and user experience

While most of this stuff should probably be done in the proper settings menu, there are some useful features that players can trigger via console commands for a more personalised gaming experience. Some of these are a lot more complex - aliases, for example - whereas others are a lot more simple, like just clearing whatever you've written into the console so far.

Basically, if you don't understand these to begin with, we don't recommend tinkering with them - you risk plunging your vampire world into even more chaos.

With that, you should have everything you need to know about navigating the world of V Rising, with the slight edge that comes from being an all-powerful controller god. We also expect to see more commands added in the future V Rising Roadmap, as Stunlock Studios have been granting new commands in updates already. Either way, keep a pointy ear to the ground…
