How you enter cheats differs depending on the platform you're playing The Sims 4 on. It's also important to remember that, while every cheat works on the PC and Mac versions of The Sims 4, the same can not be said for the console versions. Due to this, there's a chance that on PlayStation 5, for example, the code you wish to use simply won't work.
Using cheats on a console version of The Sims 4 will also disable Achievements and Trophies for that save. You'll still be able to earn Achievements and Trophies through save files where a cheat has not been used, but still it's a good idea to think before you cheat on console.
Finally, no matter which platform you're playing the game on, you may have to enter testingcheats true before entering any other cheats. If done successfully, you'll receive the notification 'Cheats are enabled' and, afterwards, can begin shaping the world of The Sims 4 to your will. This isn't required for every The Sims 4 cheat, but it's worth doing whether you plan on using a cheat to say yourself time.
These rules out of the way, let's take a look at how you enter cheats on the various platforms The Sim 4 has been released on…
To enter cheats on PC, press Ctrl + Shift + C together to open the Cheat Console, enter the cheat of your choice and then press the Enter Key. The cheat will now be active!
To enter cheats on Mac, press Command + Shift + C together to bring up the Cheat Console before you enter your cheat and press the Enter Key. The cheat will now work its magic!
You use the same method to enter cheats on both the Xbox and PlayStation versions of The Sims 4 - simply press all four shoulder buttons at the same time to open the console where you enter your desired cheat.
Hope you enjoy The Sims 4 Life and Death!
