The Sims 4 Werewolves cheats
Become the leader of the pack, manage your temperament, and more using these TS4 Werewolves cheats!
The Sims 4 Werewolves rounds out the trilogy of occult-themed game packs, giving your Sims the ability to transform into a beastly, barely-humanoid ball of rage and strangely adorable fur.
Like their vampire and spellcaster counterparts, werewolves in TS4 have a unique perk tree that emphasises their possibilities post-transformation – but they also face some very particular challenges related to their tendency to fly into random animalistic rages.
Whether you're looking to tame the beast within or rile it up even further, read on for a full list of cheats in The Sims 4 Werewolves.

How to become a werewolf using cheats in The Sims 4
To use most of the cheats on this page – and in The Sims 4 in general – you'll need to begin by enabling cheats in the command console.
Open the command console by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete on PC/Mac, or by pressing all four shoulder buttons at once on PlayStation/Xbox.
Once the console is open, type in the following cheat to get things started:
testingcheats true
You can reverse the process, replacing "true" with "false", whenever you want to turn cheats back off again. However, players on console should be aware that using cheats permanently disables achievements/trophies for that save, even if you turn testingcheats back off when you're done.
Next, in order to become a werewolf using cheats, you'll need to have The Sims 4 Werewolves game pack installed. You can then enter the following cheat into the command console to instantly turn the active Sim into a werewolf:
traits.equip_trait trait_occultwerewolf
Or, if you're tired of the lupine life and want to reverse the curse, you can use traits.remove_trait trait_occultwerewolf instead.
The Sims 4 Werewolves rank cheats
Werewolves in The Sims 4 are surprisingly complex creatures, with a strong sense not only of their place in the pack hierarchy but also of their individual ability to hold their own as an experienced and competent werewolf.
To this end, there are five ranks that werewolves can ascend through as they gain a greater knowledge and mastery of their lupine condition. These levels aren't actually dependent on the ranks of any other werewolves your Sim happens to know, but instead are gained through individual learning and experience.
Or you could just cheat your way to the top – and all its associated benefits, including the option to pick out your werewolf abilities/perks – by entering the following into the command console:
stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_Werewolf_Progression [X]
Replace [X] with the numerical amount of Werewolf XP you want your Sim to possess. For reference, the following XP numbers are required for each new rank:
- Pup: 0XP (default starting rank)
- Runt: 200XP
- Prime: 700XP
- Veteran: 1600XP
- Apex: 3000XP
The Sims 4 Werewolves temperament cheats
If you're familiar with infant and toddler quirks from The Sims 4 Growing Together, you basically already know the score with werewolf temperaments too (insert weary joke about kids being monsters here). Each werewolf Sim can have up to four temperaments, uncovered randomly as they experience new aspects of life in their transformed state.
There are 18 temperaments that can be discovered this way, plus another four that a werewolf with the Lunar Howl ability can choose to apply to themselves. Or you could just cheat them using the following:

The Sims 4 Werewolves trait cheats
Werewolves have a lot going on, but they're not completely divorced from ordinary society, and they do have a fair bit in common with regular Sim humans. This includes the fact that traits are the building blocks of their personalities.
To this end, the Werewolves game pack introduces five new aspiration reward traits, as well as a new bonus trait for choosing to pursue any werewolf aspiration; plus five traits that can be gained as rewards for certain gameplay feats.
Or, if you want to do things the quick and easy way, you can apply these traits to any Sim immediately using the cheats below:
| Trait | Description / Notes | Type | Apply with… | Remove with… |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lunar Confidant | Sim gets a relationship boost when introduced to a werewolf | Bonus Trait - Werewolf Aspiration | traits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_InitiationBonusTrait | traits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_InitiationBonusTrait |

| Chomp Champion | Sim benefits from having completed the Wildfang Renegade aspiration | Reward Trait - Werewolf Aspiration | traits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_AspirationTraits_BetterTurning | traits.remove_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_AspirationTraits_BetterTurning |

| Greater Wolf Blood | Possible for the offspring of two werewolves to inherit this trait (parents with the Dormant Wolf trait also count). Sim gains werewolf rank faster, and is usually but not always born a werewolf. | Reward Trait - Gameplay Feat | traits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_GreaterWolfBlood | traits.remove_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_GreaterWolfBlood |

Note: The "FormerLycan" trait cheat will add both the Lunar Link and Werewolf Ally traits to the active Sim. It is currently unknown how to apply or remove these two traits individually.
