While previous Larian Studios games like Divinity Original Sin allowed for cheats to be entered directly in-game by pressing Ctrl and Tab, Baldur’s Gate 3 does not have this system built in. Baldur’s Gate 3 may receive cheat support in the future, which would add cheats like:
- Ctrl+1: change paper doll armor type.
- Ctrl+2: darken the screen.
- Ctrl+3: lighten the screen.
- Ctrl+4: show interactable objects.
- Ctrl+6: change to the previous paper doll.
- Ctrl+7: change to next paper doll.
- Ctrl+8: shows text boxes.
- Ctrl+9: shows sprites.
- Ctrl+A: animate sprite.
- Ctrl+B: shows the last FMV clip.
- Ctrl+C: got to the next chapter.
- Ctrl+D: debug dump.
- Ctrl+F: turns to the character.
- Ctrl+J: jump to space under the cursor.
- Ctrl+L: shows coordinates under the cursor.
- Ctrl+R: heals character under the cursor.
- Ctrl+S: select a sprite animation.
- Ctrl+X: shows position info.
- Ctrl+Y: kills character under the cursor.
In order to make this happen, the Divinity Engine 4.0 support would have to be added in. There is no official news from Larian if this will ever happen.
With cheats on, it enables players to control magic, new spells, play with mods, go into god mode or peace mode, lower their cooldowns for their current selected character, and plenty more in the duration of the game. Cheats and console commands aren’t really how the game is supposed to be played, but they are incredibly fun.
