Console Commands – XCOM 2

Disclaimer: Use these commands sparingly and at your own discretion! The game becomes VERY easy when you get rid of resource management. I don’t take any responsibility for any decline in game experience.

The last I used these, they DO NOT disable achievements.

Activating the console

Go to XCOM2’s launch options and add in the line “-allowconsole -log -autodebug” without quotation marks. Once you’re done, you can open the console from in-game using the tilde (~) key.

Give Scientists/Engineers

You can only get one scientist or engineer at a time since XCOM 2 treats them all as actual units instead of counters like with XCOM:EU/EW.

The scientist/engineer level determines how effective they are at their job.

Higher level = higher speed boost in construction/research. I don’t know of any hard caps as to what the level maximum may be.

HealAllSoldiers – Heals everyone in the barracks instantly

RemoveFortressDoom [Number] – Removes [Number] levels of Avatar Project progress

Note: You can only remove Avatar progress that isn’t from the extra Avatar facilities.

So if you have two facilities that each have 3 bars of progress, your Avatar progress will not go below 6 until you destroy them.

GiveFacility [FacilityName] [MapIndex]

(NOTE: Spawning facilities DOES NOT CLEAR OUT ALIEN DEBRIS!

Not sure what the facility names can be, but here are some reasonable guesses:

• Workshop
• Laboratory
• PowerRelay
• ShadowChamber
• ProvingGround
• ResistanceComms
• AdvancedWarfareCenter
• UFODefense (Defense Matrix)
• PsiChamber (Psi Labs)
• OfficerTrainingschool (GTS)

MapIndex numbers start from 3 on the top left, so it goes like

3 | 4 | 5

6 | 7 | 8

9 | 10 | 11

12 | 13 | 14
