The Witcher 3 players stunned by hidden treasure we had no idea existed

A stunning discovery has been unearthed in The Witcher 3 that completely changes how we view our surroundings.

Gamers often praise Red Dead Redemption 2 or Fallout for being a gift that keeps on giving, but The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt isn’t short of secrets either.

Throughout the course of the CD Projekt Red game, there are various discoveries that surprise and delight fans; there are even horrifying secrets, as well.

We're excited about The Witcher Sirens of the Deep, are you?

This recent find falls into the mind-blowing secrets category, thankfully.

On The Witcher 3 subreddit, user antnkrlz shocked fellow players by revealing that you can loot fallen trees.

Yes, you read that right.

“After so many hours... you can find loot in fallen trees??” they posted, clearly still in awe of this discovery.

They weren’t the only Redditor taken aback by this news; plenty of other fans started to voice their surprise also.

One fan responded, “Ex-fricking-scuse me?!?” before adding, “Oh I am checking every fallen tree I see now!”

Us too.

The revelations kept on coming, though, as it turns out it isn’t just the trees you need to search properly.

“In Toussant you can find coin in the haystacks,” pointed out jaasssu, to which someone replied, “WHAT?!”

You’ll see a lot of capitalised exclamations in the comments section.

Fans are already going wild over the latest The Witcher 4 teaser – can you imagine how psyched they’ll be if you can loot foliage in that game as well?

The next time Geralt takes a stroll through the woods, you better make sure he checks every trunk and stump for coins.

We knew people could toss a coin to their Witcher, but we never expected the trees to...

Speaking of the White Wolf, Geralt has officially returned in a new standalone adventure, should you be missing the beloved monster hunter.

The Witcher 4 might be a long way off, but we’ll be too busy looting trees to notice the agonising wait.
