Thanks to the March 23rd, 2021 update for Valheim, the old method for using console commands doesn’t work. You can’t just press [F5] and start cheating anymore — there’s an extra step you and every other viking will have to take to unlock your precious Creative Mode.

Why was this change made? Nobody knows, but it is a pretty simple fix. This also puts Valheim more in line with other games on Steam — most games don’t allow you to simply use the developer console. Maybe that’s a good thing, because the dev console is a powerful tool that can very easily crash your game in the wrong hands. Heck, you can even permanently bust your game if you’re reckless. Now only players that have taken this specific step will be able to use the console window.
