How to Stop Your Sims from Dying Prematurely in The Sims 4

ByJames Dorn Last Update on

As an experienced Simmer with over 2,000 hours played, I‘ve tragically lost countless beloved Sims before their time. So over the years, I‘ve mastered techniques to cheat death and preserve my precious Sims using cheat codes, supernatural methods, and clever gameplay strategies.

In this comprehensive guide, I‘ll share everything I wish I knew as a new player for stopping untimely Sim deaths and keeping them alive and thriving indefinitely!

Toggle Mortality Off with testingcheats

The most direct way to make your Sims invincible is to turn off death completely using testingcheats!

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Open the cheat console with CTRL + SHIFT + C.
  2. Type testingcheats true and press enter to enable cheats.
  3. Type death.toggle false to turn off all death types.

After toggling mortality off, your Sims will be impervious to death from any cause!

Cause of DeathCan Still Kill Sim
Old AgeNo
ElectrocutionNo
DrowningNo
Rocket CrashNo

They‘ll continue living indefinitely until you re-enable death with death.toggle true.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • I recommend testing in a new empty save file first to avoid unintended corruption from immortality.
  • Disable autonomy and aging up to prevent townies from dying and ruining story progression while death is disabled.
  • Remember to periodically save your game progress before experimenting!

So with one simple cheat command, you can override mortality and play god by granting eternal life to your Sims!

Resurrect Deceased Sims

Accidents happen, so even with death disables, Sims can still occasionally die. Thankfully there are a few ways to bring them back from the dead!

Plead with Grim Reaper
