Witcher 3: Here’s how to make money, fast (and live it up)

An infinite money exploit has been uncovered on console versions of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and it’s pretty easy to do.

A short run from there, you can sell the shells to a pawn broker and buy Florans on a loop. Those Florans can then be converted into Crowns. Voila!

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
