Ravenwood is a massive world with a lot of secrets waiting to be uncovered, so if you want to see everything The Sims 4 Life & Death has to offer, you may need some assistance to do so. Cheats are a great way to enhance your gameplay experience.
There’s a lot to explore in this pack and accessing some parts of it can be difficult without putting in a lot of work first. If you want to bypass the work and get right to the fun, here are the best cheats to use in The Sims 4 Life & Death expansion pack.
All The Sims 4 Life & Death cheats
Here are all of the best cheats for the Life & Death expansion in The Sims 4. These cheats are a combination of pack-specific ones and base game ones that can help you navigate through the gameplay more quickly.
| Cheat | Effect | Uses |
|---|---|---|
| stats.set_skill_level minor_Thanatology 5 | Sets your Thanatology skill to level five, which is the maximum level for this minor skill. | Allows you to fully maximize the Thanatology skill to unlock all its benefits right away. |
| bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement | Instantly unlocks all career items. | Allows you to instantly access the Reaper and Mortician career rewards. |
| careers.promote active_Reaper | Promotes your Sim in the Reaper career. | Helps you level up as much as you want in the Reaper career to gain more Simoleons and career rewards. |
| careers.promote Mortician | Promotes the chosen Sim in the Mortician career. | Allows you to level up as many times as you like in the Mortician career to earn exclusive career items and lots of Simoleons. |
| traits.equip_trait Grimborn | Gives you Sim the Grimborn trait. | Makes the targeted Sim an official offspring of the Grim Reaper and gives them a special birthmark. |
| traits.equip_trait GrimDescendant | Applies the Grim Descendant trait. | This causes the selected Sim to be an official descendant of the Grim Reaper. |
| traits.equip_trait trait_ChasedByDeath | Grants the chosen Sim the Chased by Death trait. | Sims with this trait are more likely to perish. |
| traits.equip_trait trait_Skeptical | Applies the Skeptical trait to the targeted Sim. This trait cannot be equipped alongside Macabre. | Sims with this trait have a hard time being convinced of many things and generally don’t believe supernatural and mythical beings are real. |
| traits.equip_trait trait_Macabre | Gives the chosen Sim the Macabre trait. This trait cannot be equipped alongside Skeptical. | Sims who have this trait love to embrace the darkness by discussing dark and morbid topics, avoiding sunlight, spreading gloom, and otherwise being dark and grisly. |
| motherlode | Gives your household 50,000 Simoleons. | This isn’t a Life & Death exclusive cheat, but it is a great one to use when starting off since it makes it easier for you to purchase and build a new home with all of the pack items. |
If you want a quick and easy way to access even more cheats like instant clicking to raise or lower needs and being able to instantly kill a Sim to turn them into a ghost in any way you like, you may want to get some of the best mods for The Sims 4. I especially recommend UI Cheats and MC Command Center since they work extremely well in helping activate cheats for this pack more quickly.
Ghost cheats for The Sims 4 Life & Death
Ghosts have a whole lot of special skills, including a full occult tree in The Sims 4 Life & Death. To access these features, you need a ghost in your household. To get one, you can:
- Open CAS with cas.fulleditmode enabled and choose any of the available Cause of Death types.
- Use any of the following cheats to instantly turn your Sim into a ghost.
Not all of the available death types are available in CAS, so directly cheating the type of ghost you want is the only way to guarantee you get certain ones. Here are all of the death cheats you can use to create the exact type of ghost you want to play as in The Sims 4 Life & Death.

How to use cheats in The Sims 4 Life & Death
Before you can use cheats in The Sims 4 Life & Death, you need to turn cheats on through the cheat console. The exact method to do so varies on each platform, so here’s how to open the console on each one.
- On PC or Mac, press Ctrl+Shift+C at the same time.
- On PlayStation, press the R1+R2+L1+L2 buttons at the same time.
- On Xbox, press the RB+RT+LB+LT buttons at the same time.
Once the console is open, type out either “testingcheats on” or “testingcheats true” to officially activate them. You can then start using any of the available cheats to alter your gameplay experience however you want.
If you’re not sure what you want to do next in Life & Death, consider working through the Alice’s Sorrow quest to gain access to the useful Guardian Tree or completing the Tarot Card collection to assemble a powerful deck of cards.
