Warcraft Remastered: All WC1 Cheat Codes

30 years ago, I was just a young lad with a passion for gaming, and I can still remember the thrill of discovering cheat codes hidden within games like Warcraft 1. As I sit here today, with grey hair and a creaky back, the nostalgia floods back as I see the familiar names of these old cheats in the Warcraft 1 Remastered.


30 years ago, it was quite common for games to include cheat codes across all genres. However, as time passed, fewer and fewer new games came with built-in cheats. As a classic game from the ’90s era of PC gaming, Warcraft 1 Remastered offers a number of user-friendly cheat codes that offer various advantages.

Using cheat codes for Warcraft 1 allows you to obtain unlimited resources, immediately upgrade your units, boost their power, speed up construction, travel between levels, and enjoy additional perks. While most of these Warcraft 1 cheats are applicable in both single-player and multiplayer settings, certain ones can only be activated under specific circumstances.

How To Use Warcraft 1 Cheat Codes

In order to utilize cheat codes in Warcraft 1, you need to be already inside a game. You won’t find the cheats on the main menu; instead, you can input them using the in-game chat bar.

To use a WC1 cheat code, simply press the ENTER key and input the code phrase into the chat box that pops up. You don’t need to start your command with a specific symbol like “/”. Just type the letters as they are listed in the Warcraft 1 cheats guide, including spaces, just as you would in a regular chat message.

As a die-hard fan, I can tell you that most shortcuts are applicable within the single-player storyline, many within various single-player scenarios and modes in this RTS, and a select few even function in multiplayer matches (provided Cheats are enabled first). When you’re in a game mode compatible with the cheat or have activated cheats for multiplayer, you’ll notice a message pop up saying, “cheat enabled, you cunning rabbit.

Some cheats might not show immediate or apparent effects, such as the one that grants access to all Magic abilities. Ensure you receive this activation confirmation message for the cheat to become active.

All WC1 Cheat Codes & Effects

To use any of these Warcraft 1 cheat codes, make sure to type each phrase exactly as shown. The case is not crucial, so you can input either “THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE” or “there can only be one” to activate the high-damage invulnerable unit cheat, for instance.

In specific game modes, some of these WC1 shortcuts are functional. To advance directly to campaign stages, you should be in the corresponding campaign when using them. Similarly, to access the final campaign sequence, you need to be engaged in a campaign scenario.

In a multiplayer game, input the code “corwin of amber” to trigger the cheats, giving access to many cheat options (excluding those linked to the campaign) for both you and your rival. Some cheats can be activated in single-player without this code, while others are tied to this code in both single-player and multiplayer. Make sure to consult the table below to determine if you need to enter this initial Warcraft 1 cheat code to activate other codes as well.
