STARFIELD MEGA BUG LETS YOU EARN INFINITE MONEY CREDITS WITH ZERO EFFORT
A very helpful glitch can earn you 160,000 credits from opening a single chest, and you can keep go back to it as often as you want.
Bethesda prides itself on the scientific accuracy of Starfield, in terms of physics and xenogeography, but it’s also realistic in one other important way: money is everything.
Without money you aren’t getting those new ship upgrades or weapons you always wanted and while there’s many different ways to earn cash in Starfield even the illegal ones take time and effort.
However, if you’ve got an hour or so to spare there is a secret to earning more money than you can spend, and it’s all thanks to an unintended glitch.
How to earn money quick in Starfield
The exploit was first discovered by YouTuber DPJ, and while it’s a little boring to carry out it seems to work every time. So here’s how to do it:
- Go to the Stroud-Eklud Staryard spacestation in the Narion system.
- Look for a wall with a display cabinet of space travel items and use the glitch you’ll discover to walk through the wall, just where the first post for the rope barrier is.
- You’ll find you’ll be able to glitch though the map and be able to reach a treasure chest floating in space, which contains a handy 160,000 credits.
- Leave the spacestation, by going to another planet or system, and wait six in-game hours (you can fast-forward time by sleeping in any bed, including the one you’ve probably got in your ship).
- Simply rinse and repeat, until you’ve got all the money you want or Bethesda finally fix the glitch.
This may be impossible if you don’t have the Boost Pack Training Skill, but most people will have made that one of the first skills they unlock anyway.
The treasure chest is likely to be a legitimate reward for something else in the spacestation, but it’s commonplace for developers to leave items like that in an unreachable part of a level, so it doesn’t have to be loaded in later.
In this case though the glitch allows you to get to chest when usually you should never know it’s there.
