Unlock the Gold Rush Event in Fortnite Season 6: Chapter 2

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless – Mastering the Gold Rush

In Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, controlling the flow of cash is key. Mob boss Fletcher Kane's safehouses are scattered across the map, and seizing one offers unique rewards. This guide explains Gold Rush and how to activate it.

What is Gold Rush?

Gold Bars remain a crucial currency, allowing players to purchase items. This season introduces a twist: acquiring gold activates Gold Rush, a significant boost enhancing movement speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe structural damage. Similar to boons or medallions, Gold Rush provides a competitive edge, though temporary. There are multiple ways to trigger this powerful ability.

How to Activate Gold Rush

Unlike other single-method abilities, Gold Rush offers two activation paths:

• Gold-Infused Water: Dive into the golden water found at various locations across the map for an instant Gold Rush effect. Multiple locations ensure a high chance of encountering this during a match.

• Mining Gold Veins: Gold Veins, the source of Gold Bars, now grant Gold Rush upon mining. Shiny Shafts, Fletcher Kane's primary gold source, is an ideal location to find these veins. However, be cautious; Kane's forces are heavily guarding his wealth.

Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
