The Sims 4 cheats include every cheat code and life hack available. Each Sims 4 expansion and pack comes with its own set of cheat codes. Those cheats are usually tied to the jobs, deaths, and traits unique to that expansion or group. For example, with the new family-oriented Growing Together pack, you can give your newly feature-rich infants personality traits.
We’ve organized the page so you can easily access tables for all the abilities, careers, and traits you’ll need to level up your Sim. You can use Ctrl+F to search the website for the name of the expansion or pack for which you wish to find cheats.
