V Rising players looking to avoid the grind can use console commands for spawning items, teleporting and more. Here’s how to enable them.
For anyone just looking to have some fun without going through the grind in vampire survival game V Rising, console commands and cheat codes can help ease players straight into the action. Whether players are simply to avoid some resource grind or planning to break the game by immediately getting the best weapons, V Rising’s developers have included console commands and codes to allow them to do just that. V Rising distinguishes itself from other survival games with its harsh, Gothic-inspired open world, visceral combat and intricate crafting systems, and players of all stripes might well find console commands and cheat codes can aid them in their journey.
An online survival game, V Rising has players take on the role of a newly awakened vampire. Fresh from the crypt and weakened by a centuries-long slumber, the player must return to the hunt to regain their strength, rebuild their castle and eventually go to war against mortals and fellow vampires alike. Unique premise and setting aside, the game still features many survival game staples including combat and crafting, with V Rising players resource-farming for Merciless upgrades for their gear and battling bosses. With a wide variety of resources and gear to collect, players with less time on their hands may find V Rising’s built-in console commands and cheat codes useful.
V Rising players have three options for playing the game: online interacting with other players, private to play solo or with invited friends, and on rented dedicated servers. Console commands for cheats can be enabled on players’ private V Rising games, with plenty of useful commands, from spawning rare items and equipment, to teleporting the player anywhere on the map. Other commands also exist to tweak the UI and accessibility and for players with more technical expertise, commands also exist for debugging and other functions useful for mod testing. Running a private V Rising game already allows admins to tweak over 60 advanced settings, including changing starting resources and equipment or increasing maximum health, but with console commands, players can take things a step further.
