All The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered console commands & Item IDs

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is live and you can now witness the classic with significantly improved graphics as well as refined gameplay. However, at its core, its still about saving Cyrodiil from the Oblivion forces.

Although performance issues & crashes can be persistent on the platform, playing the game on a PC comes with its own benefits, ranging from a higher graphics ceiling to console commands.

On that note, we’ve listed all the console commands in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered and how to use them.



How to enable & use console commands

If you’re new to console commands, then these general directions should come in very handy to you:

  • You can access the console command screen by pressing the ~ key on your keyboard. In most cases, it is placed below the Esc key and above the Tab key, on the top left corner of the keyboard. Pressing the key again closes the console command screen.
  • There are different types of commands:
    • Toggle codes that turn a certain setting/mechanic/feature on or off. These are generally single word codes that begin with a t followed by an element.
    • Target commands generally have a prefix that is the action you intend to do. To target an object, you have to first open the console by pressing ~ and then click on it.
    • The table below uses < > between variables and quantities but you don’t have to add these symbols in the actual game. For instance, the command kill <victim> will be entered as kill Ardaline in the console.
    • Similarly, for AddItem codes, we’ve explained the format as AddItem <ItemID> <#> but in the game, you’d enter something like player.additem 0900be6a 1.
  • We’ve linked to two elaborate source of all item IDs in the game:
  • In case an item ID isn’t working for you, trying switching the first two digits (00) with 01, 02, 03, and so on. This changes up the code and one of the combinations should work for your device’s unique load order.
  • The commands aren’t case-sensitive so you don’t have to worry about any capitalization errors.
