Using cheats for The Sims 4 on Xbox can open the game up in many ways and make it easier and quicker to reach various milestones. However, it should be noted that activating cheats in The Sims 4 will lock you out of earning achievements and trophies for your cheating-activated Sims 4 save.

With that in mind, the first step to activating cheats in The Sims 4 on Xbox One is to hold down all four controller shoulder buttons at ounce. After this is done, the cheat console typing fielding should appear as a thin box at the top of the screen. From here you can start typing in cheat commands. This can also be closed by holding down all four shoulder buttons on the controller again.

Before we get ahead of ourselves though, it's worth noting that some cheats require typing in "testingcheats true" or "testingcheats on" to be toggled on. By the same process, some cheats can be toggled off by typing "testingcheats false" or "testingcheats off".
