How to unlock and activate console commands in Sons of the Forest
In order to start using console commands in Sons of the Forest, you need to download the third-party cheat client WeMod. Although WeMod doesn’t install anything into your game files, we advise you to use the software only when you’re playing offline so you don’t risk getting banned from the game.
