Oblivion console commands let you enable God mode, add gold and items, level up, teleport, and tweak almost anything in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Open the console with the tilde (~) key — it appears as a box in the corner of the screen — type the command and press Enter. Commands are not case-sensitive. PC only.
Oblivion is the fourth Elder Scrolls game, an open-world RPG by Bethesda. Where you see X put a number, and where you see an ID or ObjREF use the item or target reference.
How to open the console in Oblivion
- During gameplay, press the tilde (~) key — top-left of the keyboard, above Tab. On some layouts it’s the key just below Escape.
- A box appears in the corner of the screen.
- Click a target (NPC, creature or object) to select it if the command needs one, then type the command and press Enter.
