spawn Command

Combat

This command will spawn the NPC with the specified NPC ID (also known as an NPC code, or character code). You can optionally specify an amount of the NPC to spawn, a distance (away from you) and whether the NPC should be hostile (true) or friendly (false). Find a list of all NPC spawn codes at commands.gg/witcher3/npcs.

spawn('npc_id')

Parameters

NPC ID	The NPC ID, also known as an NPC code or character code, of the NPC you wish to spawn. You need to surround the NPC ID with apostrophes: `spawn('gryphon')`, not `spawn(gryphon)`. View all spawn codes for NPCs at here: witchercheats.com/npc-spawn.
Amount Number Optional	The amount of the NPC you wish to spawn.
Distance Number Optional	The distance away from your character the NPC should be spawned.
true / false Optional	Whether the NPC should be hostile. Specify `true` here to spawn a hostile NPC, and specify `false` here to spawn a friendly NPC. Hostile NPCs will attack you, whereas friendly NPCs will not.

Overview

The spawn command is used to generate or summon specific NPCs (non-playable characters) within the game world.

The command requires an entity's specific code, surrounded by apostrophes, entered alongside it to work properly. For example, using spawn('gryphon') will immediately generate a Gryphon in your current location.

Command	Effect
killall	This command will kill all nearby enemies. If you specify a distance, it will target and destroy all adversaries within that radius from your character.
likeaboss	This command acts as a toggle (typing it a second time deactivates it). In "likeaboss" mode, any damage you inflict equals 40% of the target's maximum health. For instance, if an NPC has a top health of 10,000, activating this mode means each hit deals 4,000 damage.
