Sims 4 werewolf cheats
Updated Sources checked 23 September 2026
traits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf turns a Sim with no bite and no full moon, and traits.remove_trait with the same name turns them back. Setting their werewolf rank takes one more line.

Turn cheats on before you turn anyone
Turn a Sim into a werewolf
Click the Sim, then enter traits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf. They'll start at Pup rank with temperaments the game picked.

Capitalization, and what the command doesn't do
Most guides write the trait in lower case. Capital letters don't matter to the console, so trait_occultwerewolf and trait_OccultWerewolf are the same command.
The command doesn't fill the ability tree, though. You buy abilities with ability points as the rank rises. We only found the command for unlocking one directly in a single source, so it isn't in the table.
Every werewolf cheat
Turn a Sim into a werewolf
One command skips the bite and the full-moon wait.
| Command | What it does | Notes | Copy |
|---|---|---|---|
Commandtraits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf | What it doesTurns the Sim into a werewolf at Pup rank. | NotesCapital letters make no difference, so most guides write it in lower case. |
Rank and experience
Pup is the starting rank and takes no command. Each threshold you cross awards an ability point. Werewolf Lore is an ability, not a skill, so stats.set_skill_level doesn't work on it.
| Command | What it does | Notes | Copy |
|---|---|---|---|
Commandstats.set_stat rankedStatistic_Werewolf_Progression 200 | What it doesSets the Sim to the Runt rank. | Notes | |
Commandstats.set_stat rankedStatistic_Werewolf_Progression 700 | What it doesSets the Sim to Prime. | Notes | |
Commandstats.set_stat rankedStatistic_Werewolf_Progression 1600 | What it doesSets the Sim to Veteran. | Notes | |
Commandstats.set_stat rankedStatistic_Werewolf_Progression 3000 | What it doesSets the Sim to Apex, the top rank. | Notes |
Temperaments and aspiration traits
A Sim can carry several temperaments, and the game swaps them around on its own unless you set them.
| Command | What it does | Notes | Copy |
|---|---|---|---|
Commandtraits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_Temperaments_<Name> | What it doesAdds a werewolf temperament. | NotesOne guide lists roughly two dozen names, among them BigBadWolf, Carnivore, Territorial, HungryLikeTheWolf and Lunar_WolfMark. We couldn't confirm the longer list. | |
Commandtraits.remove_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_Temperaments_<Name> | What it doesTakes one temperament off the Sim. | NotesSame names as the equip version, including NightWolf, SurvivalInstincts and Territorial. | |
Commandtraits.equip_trait trait_OccultWerewolf_AspirationTraits_<Name> | What it doesGrants a werewolf aspiration reward trait. | NotesOne guide gives these names: BetterFuryControl (Refined Lupine), BetterTurning (Chomp Champion), FormerLycan (Werewolf Ally), FriendlyWolf (Fanged Friend) and MoreFear (Threatening Presence). It also drops the final letter of BetterFuryControl, which is its typo. |
Cure a werewolf
Removing the trait is the whole cure, and the rank and temperaments go with it.
| Command | What it does | Notes | Copy |
|---|---|---|---|
Commandtraits.remove_trait trait_OccultWerewolf | What it doesCures lycanthropy and returns the Sim to human. | NotesThis is the only cure command. The pack's other cures are in-game potions. |
Rank and XP thresholds
| Rank | Set the progression stat to |
|---|---|
| Pup | 0, where every werewolf starts |
| Runt | 200 |
| Prime | 700 |
| Veteran | 1600 |
| Apex | 3000 |
Temperaments and aspiration traits
The names, and where they come from
Guides list temperament names including NightWolf, SurvivalInstincts, RestlessAnimal, Carnivore and Territorial. Aspiration reward traits follow the same pattern with trait_OccultWerewolf_AspirationTraits_ in front, for example BetterTurning and FriendlyWolf.
These lists come from two or three guides, not from EA, and at least one of them prints a name with a letter missing. If the game rejects a name, try another spelling.
Werewolf ranks and the moon in UI Cheats
Add weerbesu's free UI Cheats Extension, then right-click the XP bar to pick a rank, a dormant ability to unlock it, a temperament to remove it, or the clock for the lunar phase.
The features page lists the rest.

Frequently asked questions
